Thank you for this! My son and I installed new injora steel drive shafts on one of our TRX4m trucks today, and we made sure they were “the same” (lol) on each end. FYI: just learned the term “phased” in the world of drive shafts! I’m going to see if we have the grub screws installed the same in each end now. Thanks!
Phasing is the process of aligning the universal joint yokes on both ends of the drive shaft (or double u-joint)in a parallel fashion. If the joints are not properly phased, they will operate at varying speeds throughout each revolution which can cause second-order vibrations
Late to the party here from across the pond. You said the phasing is "only a little thing", but it really does affect the small trucks too! I have an FTX Outback 3 mini (RGT outside of Europe). That little 1/24 scale Defender was shaking about until I learned about phasing driveshafts! Happy RC'ing sir!
Thanks!! It is amazing that a condition so common to full size transfers over to tiny trucks!! Good to know how much full size tech is showing up nowadays!!
Thank you very much Gerry. That was a the exact answer I was looking for when I asked. I had seen a couple 1:1 examples but this summed it up perfectly for tiny trucks. I actually think you may have just solved a problem with my little JJRC Q65 project. Can't wait to get to the workbench to check it. "Grubnut". That would be a perfect name for a rig or for a trail in the EXOPLEX. LOL Thanks again buddy for taking the time to answer my question. Stay safe and stay tiny. Steve

Thanks so much! I did the same thing when I first heard about it! I also had one with the problem also! Thanks for the sub and let's make sure we chat more!!

It's not the mass difference that causes vibrations
Please explain?
