About the TRF201 Alum Rear Upright 0º, 0.5º or 1º, what is the best choice for the 201XMW?

Best regards

Hi all,

Just thought I would post pics of my MAN BEAST 201 XMW. All ready for testing Saturday on grass............:D Some very nice little changes made to this kit over the Standard TRF 201 kit.

Click pictures to enlarge.......:D

Very nice, but I can see a couple of blue bits you're missing. Hope you get them soon :( :( :( :(

The "best choice" depends on what surface you are running and what you want from the car.

More rear toe-in makes the rear of the car more stable, and wanting to go in a straight line.

If you drive on astro, you probably don't need more rear toe-in since the back won't break out easily anyway, if you drive on a slippery/dusty track it can help to put some more toe-in on.

In respect of the rear hubs, another option is to swap the 0.5 hubs and you get 0.25 degrees, i.e. run left on right and right on left. This worked well on my standard 201, with standard 3 degree front suspension hanger.

Note I run on loose clay track.

On my XR/XM I have 0 degree aluminium hubs but use the XA front suspension hanger, which I believe is standard on XMW.

Will do Dave.

Having owned the Tamiya 201 Gen2 and Gen3 Vegas, it will be a good benchmark. But already looking at the XMW you can see a lot of likenesses to both Gen2 and Gen3 so should be very good.........;)

Thanks for the comments! The 201XMW will be used in astro tracks and sugared clay tracks basically.

Best regards

The DEX210 uses 3mm C-Hub axles and Tamiya 2.6mm ones. If you can make inserts for the Durango with 2.6mm the width of the Tamiya wishbone is big enough to fit the C-Hub.

Hope that helps.

Hello,

finished my car build today and hoping to test the car this weekend.

Bodyshell will be the Kit body but proline shell will be ordered soon.

Thx in advance!
