Frequently Asked Questions

• What is an LTC differential and why would I want one for my RC buggy? — LTC stands for Low Torque Capacity, which refers to a differential design that uses a high tooth count with smaller individual teeth. This geometry creates smoother and more responsive differential action that resists locking under power, giving you better traction control and more predictable handling. LTC differentials are particularly valued in competitive RC racing because they help maintain consistent traction through corners whilst allowing free rotation when needed, resulting in faster and more consistent lap times.
• Is this plastic version as good as the metal version? — Both the plastic and metal variants use the same innovative LTC gear design and engineering, so they deliver identical performance characteristics in terms of differential action, smoothness and responsiveness. The plastic version offers the same Factory Team quality and racing performance at a more accessible price point, making it an excellent choice for racers who want proven performance improvements without the premium cost of metal gears.
• How difficult is it to install this differential rebuild set? — Installation requires basic mechanical knowledge and proper tools, as you'll need to disassemble your existing differential, clean all components, install the new LTC gears and shims, and reassemble everything with the correct tolerances. If you're experienced with RC car maintenance and have the appropriate tools, this is a straightforward upgrade. If you're less experienced, your local RC track or hobby shop may offer installation services.
• What differential oil should I use with these new gears? — Factory Team provides specific recommendations based on your racing surface. For dirt and clay racing, use 15k weight for the front, 200k for the centre, and 10k for the rear. For carpet and astro turf racing, use 20k weight for the front and 15k for the rear. Correct oil viscosity is crucial for optimal differential performance, so always follow these recommendations based on your primary racing surface.
• Will this work with my current differential housing? — Yes, this rebuild set is designed to work with the existing differential housings on RC10B74.1 and RC10B74.1D models. You simply need to remove your old gears and shims, clean the housing thoroughly, and install the new Factory Team LTC components.
• Can I use this differential rebuild on both front and rear differentials? — This rebuild set contains components for one differential, so if you want to upgrade both front and rear differentials, you would need to purchase two sets. However, you may also want to consider upgrading differentials progressively, starting with either front or rear to see how the improved performance affects your overall setup.
• What makes the high tooth count design better than standard differentials? — The high tooth count with smaller individual teeth creates more contact points between gears, which distributes forces more evenly and allows for smoother power delivery. This design resists sudden locking and unlocking, providing more linear and predictable differential response. The result is better traction control, fewer traction-related handling surprises, and the ability to drive with more confidence and consistency lap after lap.
