.12 Flywheels

[ClayGlover]

I've been looking with no luck. other than a local machine shop's lathe, where's a source for small .12 size flywheels? thanks

I'm currently using one from OS, part # 1-D I think, available through a lot of sources including Tower Hobbies. I also have some brass flywheels from CEN Racing. Look atabout any ARTR or RTR boat kit that has a .12-.18 engine and you can usually get one.

have you tried any aluminum ones? or do they run better with more inertial mass? the ones that tower sells are plated/anodized steel...

We have about 50 .12 flywheels in stock.

they are milled brass. We make them for all of the DPI and Pro Boat models.

I just checked and found we also have the driveshaft to flex/solid shaft couplers for the .12-18. motors in stock as well.

Got any picture of these DPI flywheels? Do the flywheels accept a corn or (cone-washer) ?

The OS .12 flywheel is made from brass and is nickle plated.

The old Traxxas Nitro-V had a beautifull machined aluminum flywheel that acepted a coned washer. Does anyone know where to get the "original" Nitro-V flywheel? The new fly-wheels are cast aluminum and is smaller than the old machined ones.

I heard that Octura had produced this flywheel for Traxxas. Anyone have any data on this?
