Technical overview of the 3Racing SAK-M5P09 swing shaft

The 3Racing SAK-M5P09 swing shaft is manufactured to meet the fit and motion requirements of the Sakura Advance M5 chassis, focusing on serviceable durability and repeatable behaviour. It is intended to provide a stable pivot interface that supports consistent drivetrain geometry under load.

Design and track-oriented benefits

Engineered with attention to tolerances and bearing seating, the shaft reduces extraneous movement that can introduce drivetrain inefficiency. The outcome is steadier torque transfer and improved predictability when tuning suspension and throttle response for race conditions.

Integration and setup advice

Installation follows the original mounting scheme for the Sakura Advance M5. For best results, verify bearing fit, torque settings, and drivetrain alignment after assembly. Small adjustments to toe and diff preload may be required to harmonise the chassis with the new shaft.

What tolerance checks should I perform at installation?

Verify that bearing bores are clean and that the shaft rotates freely without lateral play. Confirm axial clearance matches the chassis specification and there is no binding at full suspension travel.

Does the shaft require specific lubrication or break-in?

Use light, RC-appropriate grease on pivot and bearing interfaces. A limited break-in under low load helps seating; after that recheck fasteners and clearances prior to competition runs.

Any setup tips for maximising drivetrain efficiency?

Ensure correct gear mesh, straight driveshaft alignment, and properly torqued bearings. Small adjustments to diff preload and suspension compliance can reveal the best balance between grip and drivability.
