Thanks guys

Did some back to back testing last night at Bracklesham Barn club with TLR weight, No TLR weight and the Cream RC weight and it was much better with the Cream RC weight. No pendulum, loads more rear end grip even with tyres starting to go off.

Fitted the 'Cream' weight in my 22...
Seemed to work really well.

He means:

I have received the weight from Cream.
It is jolly good, but it makes the car roll quite a lot when cornering.
Has anyone else experienced this and what can I do to prevent this from occuriing?

:D

Considering how inexplicably low he had his ride height set the other week (while complaining about inside front wheel lift in the corners), and without any follow-up or noted changes since then - and the fact that just a touch of low mounted weight isn't going to make it happen - I'm really more interested in getting the WHOLE story of what else he's done, along with wondering if he's got the best eyesight on the planet that he can see these things from the rostrum. ;)

cryer-evo 07-11-2011 05:56 PM

right then car set up is mid mount

front
25 kick
5 deg caster
55 piston
red spring
27.5w oil
shock middle on tower/ inside on arm
tyres mini pins
all links as kit spec

rear
tow 4 deg
2.5 antisquat
55 piston
white spring
20w oil
shock middle on tower / inside on arm
cream weight
chassis in its short config
mini pins
all links as kit spec
ride hight as low as pos when racing indoor on carpet

out cide on astro and grass the same but with fastrax turf grippers all around and running rear arms level with front maching so chassis is level

kayce 07-11-2011 08:04 PM

Rear shock oil weight is too low compared to what is being used in the front.

What is that exactly, because last week you were running something crazy like 15mm rideheight.

steveproracing 07-11-2011 09:32 PM

Your front shock setup is a little off.
Put 2.5mm internal spacers in shock to calm some of the weight transfer on power
Your front springs are way too soft for carpet and minipins
Go for a green spring and move bottom of shock to middle
camber link should remain kit but remove the 2mm under ball stud as this causes the car to hold on to the corner too long


Now for the rear.
Your oil piston is not as far out as kayce would make out!

Try 27.5wt but with the 54 piston
Keep the white springs
Move the upper mount to outer to help support the car mid corner

Rear camber link works really well with 1e. With 3mm under outer ball
Keep everything else the same as you describe

Oh and go for around 18mm ride height all round


This setup is proven to work really well on carpet
It's very easy to drive with no negative traits
In fact its a really good standard setup for grass and astro aswell.
It only every requires fine tuning to track or driver preferences

Why is it that you're using, or asking about using, indoor carpet/ozite set-ups when you're now saying you're running outdoors on astro on a very bumpy track with 1/8th-sized jumps? :confused:

cryer-evo 08-11-2011 09:53 AM

i race every friday indoor on carpet
but as i have done my first meet out cide on astro / grass i would like to get a good sut up for this as this is the main race i wont to do well in

steveproracing 08-11-2011 10:21 AM

Start with exactly the same setup for the outdoor track as the setup I have given u for indoors
If the car is a little lively over the bumps then raise the car a mm or two
If still not right then go to 25wt oil all round

Most important though. Follow all my changes. Not just a couple of bits here and there as they all work with each other to create a balanced car

Hth

cryer-evo 08-11-2011 10:48 AM

Thanks I will give it a go

This topic is supposed to be about the "REAR WEIGHT made by Cream Extreme RC," let's keep it on-topic.

There are dozens of set-ups already listed here on this forum, as well as many others used by team drivers on TLR.com - and it seems you should be able to find something that works - and a big part of RCing is a willingness to try things, and find out what works for you and your driving style and the tracks you run, and not just randomly posting each week with a supposed issue after a minor change.
Good luck in your search.

HAHAHA jonny! I will remember this quote forever! 'won't do well in' haha!

drop4205 09-11-2011 11:12 AM

ran the cream weight last night for the first time. Gotta say at first I was running same times as without it per lap times. Then i took the TLR weight off the back and the car was much more consistent and I broke my track record by a lap. If you dont have the cream weight get it. You wont be disappointed at all.

Don't forget, if you use the losi rear weight, try it without that weight on the back.

Cream 16-05-2012 03:33 PM
