rear motor set ups losi 22
 

hi all can people put there rear motor set ups here

some one turned up at racing on friday night at yatton club with a new losi 22 rtr and it was not great. mods i done with him was to lower car a bit change tyres to lp stagers on front and put some mini pins on the rear then added 30g on top of servo and a hole strip of weights along the length of the battery aprox 70/80g and so far everything has helped

car comes with orange front spring and yellow in the rear

any suggestions

There is a database of set up sheets which cover different surfaces and configurations, look here:

Personally only ran rear config on grass and very wet astro, set up was pretty much the same as mid car with 80g weight as a block under rear shock tower/bulkead rather than under lipos... plus tyres were more suitable to conditions... didn't run weight up front as full stick lipo does that job.

There is a difference in the way the 2 configs drive, you can be a lot more aggressive on tighter sections with rear motor car and have to adjust to driving jumps with throttle as they can't be controlled in air as easily as a mid car.
