Default Fallen out of love with your Vega RB5? try this!

Front:
Shox= Middle/top, Outer Bottom, 75#Lime green spring, 3B 35wt(losi).
C-link= Bulkhead/inner +2mm, Hub/inner
30Deg kick up no spacer
low height ball stud no washer on steering bellcrank and short wheelbase on hub(IMPORTANT)

Rear:
Shox=Middle/top, inner/bottom (not the drilled inner if you've done it) 55#mustard spring, 3B 27.5wt(losi)
C-Link= Tower-upper innermost, Hub/innermost on Alloy block +2mm (0deg toe hub)
2 bump anti-squat shim under RR block(wide track) and use narrow track RF block this makes for 4deg inboard toe.

Tyres= Cut staggers/slim and minispikes rear in yellow
Wing= LMR mounted high
SP V3 7.5 @ 26/78
150g of weight in the lipo tray( i use 3mm st/steel plate cut to fit snug)

This set up has stopped me from selling mine as i was tempted to change.
Any questions just ask.
