Monaco RC Diff Check differential hardness tester

Monaco RC have introduced their new Diff Check device that helps to measure the hardness of gear differentials. The handy device allows to measure the diff setting, ensuring consistent hardness after building, maintenance or setup.

The device, that comes in a high-quality zipped bag, is powered using a standard 2S LiPo battery and an large LC display allows for easy recognition of the measured value.
