Both the front and rear differentials are of the gear variety and are loaded with grease from the factory. Speaking of the spur gear, it and the pinion gear are well protected from dirt and debris with a gear cover to reduce the chance of failure. Nothing else is needed to get the wheels rolling.īoth vehicles are 4WD and feature a spur gear that connects to a light plastic shaft to deliver power to the front and rear of the vehicle. What’s in the box? Everything you need to have hours of fun! Well equipped vehicles, a 2.4GHz radio that even has dual rate adjustments, battery pack, charger and “AA”s for the transmitter. However, it can easily be removed and stretched to tighten it up for more experienced hobbyists. A spring-style servo saver protects the gears of the servo and while a bit soft this makes it ideal for newcomers. The center link operates rather freely without much slop, helping both vehicles track straight and narrow. The shocks are easily removable so changing oil or replacing seals is a breeze.Īn efficient dual bellcrank style system helps take care of the steering duties on the DB4.18 and DT4.18. Spring tension can be easily adjusted by adding or subtracting spacers and there are multiple shock mounting positions on the front and rear of each vehicle. The suspension package on these Dromida rides is rather plush! Getting past most bumps and jumps is no issue due to the coil over oil filled shocks that come as standard equipment.

The upper deck attaches at the front and rear diff cases and aids in reducing front/rear chassis flex. Remember, not all chassis flex is bad and in fact, it helps increase traction. The lower composite plastic deck incorporates a portion of the spur gear cover and features a center channel to help reduce front/ back flex while still allowing for some side-to- side flex. The backbone to the 4.18 platform is the dual deck chassis. This piece, made of aluminum, is less likely to fail than the stock plastic unit that it replaces and won’t develop slop nearly as fast. The front end on most vehicles takes the majority of abuse in crashes and this develops slop rather quickly.

The key to motor longevity is keeping it cool and that is exactly what this easy-to-install piece does.

Aluminum Motor Heatsink, DIDC1113, $7.29.

This aluminum gear is much tougher and should last the life of the vehicle. Spur gears on small vehicles like this tend to wear out rather quickly because even the smallest bits of debris can cause the teeth to fail.

Philips head screwdriver for basic maintenance.

Realizing that a well-priced vehicle will flop if it can’t perform, Dromidia made them tough to compliment the well detailed lids with bright, run anytime, LED lights.
