1.6 mm mate

Cheers Neil

Typical that I went to order the carbon battery holder today and it's now out of stock!

So does everyone with a gear diff use both spacers behind the big outdrive gears or just the larger diameter washer?

My gear diff is remarkably tight...

I don't really want to take it apart (it's in car) but I remember I removed the smaller very thin thin washer in there.

Does anyone play with gear box height around here? It was a pretty common tuning option for the X6 when I drove it.

I can't go racing this weekend (commitments :thumbdown:), but I'll be playing around with it next Wednesday, in combination with the carbon parts of course :p

Sack off the 210 it's like comparing night and day. The deals you can get on the bmax2 is brilliant at the moment.

having moved from a Dex210 to a Bmax2
can honestly say you wont be dissapointed with the yokomo.

the build and parts quality is better than the 210 and the manual is like reading instructions put together by somebody who wants you to build they're kit to the best standards, no steps missing, no incorrect sections and everything is very easy to understand. and all this even with english as the third choice language!!

Yep, +1,5mm for more drive :thumbsup:

I used 2.0mm the most to be honest. But I'll try 1.5 ;)

More drive?

no need to raise the gearbox, just put +/- 50gr under the motor with 1° AS. (65% rear weight bias)
My car wheelies on wet astro :D

Is that in MM or RM

In MM.

I'm driving with 30gr weight on motor. My car did wheelies too, loosened the slipper clutch a little bit. Front is too light now :lol:

You should try to put the weight under the motor, you CG will be much lower like this.

With all those extra weights throughout the car, I wonder who'll be the first to try a stainless steel chassis. :confused:

We already run a stainless steel chassis with a 1/16th 2WD Micro, the Phat Bodies 'Chunk' :)

I don't carry that much weight. 20gram in front and 30gram on the motor. When I was driving the X-Factory X6 i was carrying lot more :D

I've no idea why anyone needs to add all this weight to the car? My guess is they have used the heavy 50g brass bulkhead, which simply isn't needed for the MM car, then trying to balance it back with weight to the rear?
The heavy brass weight is for the MR car, not for MM.

I added 15g to the front of mine which I removed when I bought the ally upgrades and optional brass 11g bulkhead nose weight. I run stagger ribs, but you can run cut staggers if you want more front end. The car grips like mad, but has loads of steering when you want it.

I also only have the alu front options + the 11gr in the nose.
No need (I even think the car will push) for a heavy front brass bulkhead.
My alu chassis car is at 1540gr with a shorty and around 64% rear bias.
Mega drive and steering, very stable and forgiving. :D

+1; I've got 2 x 10g in front of the servo and occassionally put in 20g in front of the gear box when running rear motor.
As for the gear box height, I used to raise it by 2 mm in the original B-Max2, but did not try it in the MR as I never struggled with forward bite. Last season I had problems with a loose rear end, mainly because I never had time to properly set-up the car for dirt due to other commitments or bad weather. When I made some changes prior to the last leg of our season finale, it was much better, though, and I was happy to see that my driving was not that bad at all. I dare not imagine what could have been possible under different circumstances... :p
