I bet it looked great seeing these race around. Any tips? |
Off the top of my head, I used to run this setup pretty much everywhere, every track.
Front-
Schumacher Yellow TC springs (the old powdercoated ones)
12mm ride height
0deg Toe
Rear-
Schumacher Red TC springs (the old powdercoated ones)
10mm ride height
Rear shock risers swapped over to increase droop
Cells as far back as possible
Schumacher B30 racing slicks with lashings of additive, wiped off 5mins before a run
Rear Wing angle increased with a Tamiya shoulder screw on each mount (the ones Tamiya use on shocks for the TT01/M03/M05 etc)
I was running:
GP3700 NiMH
Novak GT7/Peak Vantage 12x2 or a Reedy Ti 12x2 brushed geared on 21/95
Mtroniks Genesis Pro/Mtroniks 5900kv brushess geared on 21/86
Hitec 645 servo
KO Presto/Novak XXL
