Differential
Differential gear. Equalizes the different revolution speeds, e.g. between the wheel on the inside of a bend and the
outside of a bend.
Butt screw
Regulates the minimum air supply to the carburettor in idle speed
Receiver
Receives and transforms the control signals of the remote control transmitter (direction and intensity) for the servo
and the drive control. The transmitter crystal which is tuned to the receiver crystal ensures the perfect communication
between transmitter and receiver. Transmitter and receiver crystals are attuned to each other in such a way that
signals of transmitters operated parallel cannot influence this receiver (this model).
Throttle/brake servo
This servo controls the slide carburettor as well as the disk brakes
Transmission
"Translates" the engine rotation speed in the drive section to the rotational speed of the driven wheels. The
"transmission ratio" (engine rotation speed/wheel rotation) gives information about the final speed and the torque.
Main jet needle
Regulates the fuel supply to the carburettor
Steering servo
Servo motor, that carries out mechanical control functions via a lever. This servo effects steering via the steering
links. A servo saver integrated in the servo control lever protects the servo from damage, which can cause strong
shocks against the wheels via the steering links at the servo transmission.
Air filter
The air filter is made of foam and prevents the penetration of dust and dirt particles through the suction hole into the
carburettor and the motor.
Oil pressure shock absorbers
The shock absorber consists of a coil spring with a piston in an oil-filled cylinder running up and down at the centre.
The coil spring is supported by a plate on the end of the piston rod and a knurled nut/distance ring on the outer side
of the cylinder. The spring preload can be adjusted by turning the knurled nut/the distance rings of various thicknesses.
The springs absorb the travel of the axel halves when travelling on uneven ground. The spring retraction/protrusion
is inhibited by the piston running through the oil. By selecting different dampening oils the dampening properties can
be varied. The shock absorber is mounted between the damper plate at the top and the lower transverse link. The
deflection travel is limited with the help of a plastics sleeve.
Transverse link
Full-floating axle transverse to the direction of motion, connects the wheel suspension (spindle, axle leg and steering
knuckle pin) with the chassis.
Transverse stabilizer
U-shaped curved spring steel wire, which is connected, at both ends, with a lower transverse arm respectively via
ball-shaped heads In the center, the wire bracket is fastened rotatable on the differential housing. If one wheel
deflects, the other wheel is deflected as well across the bracket. This reduces the heeling (rolling) of the vehicle
when driving in curves. The transverse stabilizer supports the impact of oil dampened-shock absorbers, in particular
when the wheel is deflected. The restoring force of the wire bracket supports the rebounce of the shock absorber
(against the friction in the piston). Therewith, wheel strike is ensured in every situation.
