Team Associated Factory Team Handheld Universal Tire Balancer
I had so much hope for this item. but I had absolutely no luck with it. I watched the TeamAssociatedRC channel on youtube with TJ Eller explaining and showing the use of this balancer. I can say for certain, the balancer I received did not spin anywhere close to nice and free like his did in the video. When I would spin a wheel it wouldn't stop with heavy side down or even spin backwards to find the heavy spot. It would just stop from resistance. Maybe the bearing had to much grease packed in them or something but I could not get 8 different wheels to actually stop with the heavy side down at all. I tried 4 2wd rear wheel buggy tires and 2 2wd front wheels and 2 stadium truck wheels and none of them stopped as it should. I tried to pop out the bearings to clean them with denatured alcohol but the bearings are pressed fit and could not get them out. Unfortunately I just gave up on it and threw it away. Money wasted. Maybe I just happened to get a bad one? I'm not sure but just a heads up.

Previous to this tool, I just used the front axle of my vehicle to balance tires. But this year I added a 4wd buggy to the collection which would then require disconnecting the drives. To save time and hassle, I bought The Factory Team Balancer as it said it could do stadium truck as the competitors stated they could not. This Balancer worked great for the 2wd and 4wd buggy wheels but FAILED for the Stadium Truck. Turns out the extra $ for stadium capability was a waste. The balancing putty was sticky and applied easily however.

It’s good for a compact carry along. I balanced two sets of 1/8 buggy, one set 1/10 buggy tires and had three of the square clay pieces leftover that was provided. It’s my first time balancing RC tires, it seemed some tires felt better balanced then others, may have been my gluing? Probably have better balance with better gluing of tires.

Works perfect and great quality. The "clay" that comes with the balancer is not really clay, its more like Blu tac.
