shocks for cr2
 
just to mention, i moved the rear shocks out on the tower to the end hole, found that stopped the car from flipping over when approaching a corner a little to hot. ;)

hope this helps.

I had the complete opposite problem with my rb5-mid.
I had mounted a large Hi DF wing that made the car land on it's butt.:p
At big jumps i had to brake the wheels to a standstill to get the nose down. But after with locked wheels it just started to rotate backwards again.
The solution was to cut it down a bit mount it further forward.

So try it with a bigger wing.

Ran the car yesterday with the changes, the nosediving problem seems to have been resolved.

Thanks, everybody :thumbsup:.

Just curious - what did you end up doing ?

A 55 grams lead weight under the battery.
Yellow rear springs with orange pistons and 25 wt oil mounted using the 4 (outermost) upper and middle lower holes.
New XX4 wing trimmed as big as possible.

The car still has more nose down when jumping than the rear engined car, but it can now be considered a quirk, not a disability.

Avner.
