I see folks are mixing and matching Ty's setups with little bits of their own ideas and have varying degrees of success. I recommend you try a full setup from Ty with no mix and match. He puts a lot of time into each setup with every little detail working together with others. You may just find that his medium grip setup actually works well for medium grip.
Anyone figure out something to use for a chassis protector yet?

Absolutely agree. Just don't grab part of a medium bite setup and be shocked if it doesn't work well on medium bite until you match it. That doesn't mean there isn't plenty of good setups for all grip levels. I just find it useful to match a known good setup completely and then experiment from there.

i've had requests for a pic of my electronics layout. so here it is. esc in the rear, receiver as far forward as possible just mm behind the steering belcranks to make it easier to access the center diff (see build tip #7). the receiver is absent at the moment because my D812 is borrowing it but you can see where the receiver tray is located. battery location is full forward. the main reason i chose this arrangement as opposed to the esc forward is so that i can use a short sensor wire.

Thank you Torrance!
How do you get away not running a fan on your ESC in a wheeler?
Also, how are those Velcro body mounts on the side attached and where do we get them?

Velcro mounts were made from left over trimmings from the wing (build tip#8).

Drop center diff fluid to 30k or less. Add black front sway bar and remove rear sway bar. Are your springs softer or harder than stock? For our track SDRC in San Diego the kit springs were perfect.
