thanx
No and No.
But there is a Jap company that made (or used to make) a speed-tuned (higher ratio) gearset for the M03. Can't remember who, one of the usual suspects.
Sipa give me your e-mail address and I can send my set-up from TCS Nats last year. It is aggressive for M04 but for TA it was by far the fastest car about .5 a lap
Put it this ways..Mo3 is good for short track and Mo4 for the longer track...mo3 front drive, pulled better out of the corner speed...the mo4 is great for high gearing speed..I hope this help
Hey guys! I have a Mini (M-03), I really like it.
Just onre thing though, it seems to really understeer, which is easy to drive but I like to have slight oversteer, is that possible with a front drive car?
Try using hard springs on the rear and lighter springs on the front as well as decient tyres. I've heard the hpi x patterns (for the hpi mini) work well.
Thanks for the tip Fatdoggy. The car works much better now, it's actually faster than my f201!!
It really flies with a 12 turn motor, and shreds tires like crasy, just one thing, I need a new diff. The spider gears in the stock one have disapeared and left behind a ton of metal flakes, anybody know where to find a ball diff?!?!
