Are Zip-Ties the Best Choice for Securing Driveshaft Joint Rubber Boots?

from The RC Deep Dive · host RC Deep Dive

Tamiya instructs you to attach the drive shaft joint rubber boots at the gearbox and secure it with a black zip-tie nylon fastener to the out-drives in ORV (Off-Road Vehicle) chassis radio controlled model vehicles. But is there a better way? What about the wheel side of the hex-drives, dog-bones, universal joints, or constant velocity driveshafts? Should they get a zip tie too? We strap on our thinking caps tight and drive you to the answers to these questions and more in this episode of the RC Deep Dive podcast.
