210 rm3 or rm4 for dirt?

[zoomzoombang]

Can anyone who has tried it tell me if you can feel a difference between rm3 and rm4 mode? I failed at the search button on this subject. Thanks.

i have yet to test my RM4 on dirt, i gave up on my RM3 coz somehow the rear tends to want to go first, dont know if its my setup or my slipper is tad tight, but seem i cant get enough rear traction when i hit the throtle., so i decided to try Rm4.

Think someone on here might chime in for us.

thanks. I actually tried mm4 first on dirt and found I needed a lot more traction. That's why I then changed to the rm4 config., since it was easier to do that than rm3 No track time on rm4 yet so if rm3 gave more grip then I can convert before next outing.

Not to take away from this forum but rctech has an ok forum as well. Thats nearly all they drive on there and a lot of RM talk

I drive RM3 on dirt.
when I drive RM4 and I go full throttle on the straight away, the nose of the car feels to light. I cant correct the line that im driving with steering.
And you have to feather ( be verry smooth ) going on the throttle

For me RM3 is the way to go on dirt. I have a pretty good setup and can push the car really hard.

I don't drive a 210 (yet), but a member at my club does. He uses MM4 on clay! He has worked on a decent base setup for a while, but he's got the mid running sweet for both dirt and astro. He had two cars, one RM, one MM. He stopped trying to get the RM to run well as he was having problems to get it balanced and found himself only driving the MM4.

And if it means anything to you, he's one of the quickest guys around the track So what I'm saying is, perhaps you could try out the mid motor on dirt?
