Sweet! They have gear boxes, outdrives and diff rings in stock; now, if I only wanted to spend $50 for shipping Hopefully, that means they'll be making it to the states soon too.

Can anyone tell me what gearing I need to use for a 13.5 boosted or non boosted? I will be using a tekin RS v223 with a D3 13.5.

Got my 210 on the track today and was hoping someone could help me with springs. shocks are set up with Front 1.2 - 4 hole and Rear 1.3 - 4 hole

night blue F
dark red R

oil is 30F
and 27.5R.

Kinda bounced a bit more than I'd like, track is hard packed with a lot of bite in most places that are packed.

This is the track

27.5 seems kinda high for the rear, I would go to 22.5. Where are your shocks mounted?

Shocks are mounted

middle/outside F
middle/inside R

I found a set of losi pinks for the rear I may try, but this buggy is heavier than my last (b4.1) I was running the losi springs on it.
it was set up
middle/outside F
middle/inside R
25F
27.5 R
and it was dialed in pretty good, but that is a lighter car compared to the 210

My Durango with full Titanium buckles, studs, screws, and 200g shorty pack weights 1605g.

Edit: I also have the Tresrey front bulkhead & rear front toe block.

The 22 and B4.1 are a lot lighter but that can hurt you as well.

You it's not hard to adjust for weight differences though.

Do your tires bounce, or is the whole car?

Whole car, I just redid the shocks and took out all rebound in the frond and left 25% in the rear. I will try this in the AM and see where I am at.

I love the car, I like the fact that is feels solid.

I also have a DESC410r and that thing is dialed and solid, only thing I may do to it is the shorty pack mod.

Take out all rebound and go drive the car again. Bet you it will drive a lot better.

Will do.

Does the spring set up sound about right? my only concern with 2 soft a spring is the track is abrasive when dry and I don't want to eat up my chassis.
