6.5mm shorter than TRF Special Dampers, these dampers nevertheless have excellent oil capacity thanks to a 1.2mm larger internal aluminum cylinder diameter, which has a mirrored surface and HL coating for ultra smooth motion and minimal impurities finding their way into the oil. Performance is further enhanced by slick silicone O-rings and low-friction POM plastic pistons, plus aluminum springers and titanium coated piston rods. Fitting these race specers damp to your car will contribute to superior steering response and speedy corner, particularly on high grip surfaces or technical tracks. They also allow use of body designs with lower bonnets. In addition to included components, other separately sold TRF Super Short Big Bore Damper springs are also compatible. *Requires damper stays for TRF Super Short Big Bore Dampers plus Item 42344 5.8mm Ball Connector Nuts for TRF Dampers (8pcs.).

This sanding cloth is a great option for sanding work on complex three-dimensional surfaces like those found on car models. It experiences limited creasing on account of the softness of the cloth, helping prevent deep surface scratches and making it highly durable. It is suitable for both dry and wet sanding, and can be cut to the desired size using scissors. Different cloths in this series have different colors for easier distinction.

The Sherman tank was a staple of the Allied effort in WWII, with a total of about 50,000 vehicles produced, among which were a host of different variants such as the M4 Sherman 105mm Howitzer, a variant used in fire support. The M4 hull featured rolled steel plates, and it employed a 9-cylinder air-cooled radial engine in the rear which powered the front sprockets via a 5-speed transmission with reverse; the 105mm gun fired howitzer rounds, smoke rounds and incendiary ammunition. The late production vehicle had horizontal vertical spring suspension (HVSS) and 840 units were produced, providing infantry support and taking part in assaults on enemy strongpoints from Europe to the Pacific Theater.

Controlled Differential Steering System
In WWII, the average tracked vehicle used a clutch brake system, whereby the sprocket on the turning side was braked to create a difference in speed between the tracks and let the vehicle turn. While it did enable pivot turns on the spot by completely stopping one track, it required considerable skill to operate, not to mention the fact that it experienced mechanical power loss and a tendency to overheat the brakes. On the other hand, the M4 Sherman used a controlled differential system that braked a sprocket wheel via a differential gear: as the turning side track slowed, the other track sped up, leading to smooth turns and in one fell swoop both minimizing mechanical loss and negating brake overheating issues. This system was also employed on the M24, the M8, and the M2 high speed tractor, vehicles which all contributed to the eventual success of the Allied WWII campaign.

About the Model
This is a 1/16 scale R/C model assembly kit. ★Just like the actual tank, the model uses a controlled differential steering system. ★Metal components are used for drive sprockets, suspension arms and idler wheel bases. ★The horizontal vertical spring suspension (HVSS) uses metal coil springs. ★Pre-assembled plastic tracks use metal pins and connectors.

Mechanical Steering System
A differential gear transfers power from the Type 540 motor. When the tracks rotate at the same speed the model moves in a straight line, turning as the track speeds differ: transmitter commands cause servo movement, which in turn slows the turning side track via one of the brake discs in the differential. A planetary gearbox in the differential unit speeds up the unbraked track.
