Try go to a softer spring rate front and rear. This was a quick fix for us without drastically changing the set up.

Clint- if your ever in the San Jose area, I have a brand new BMI chassis kit for the Cylcone. Never ran, sanded, or glued. Make a resonable offer and it's yours.

The washers are for looks and the posts are ATC posts. They have o rings in the center of them and can be used to control the rigidity of the chassis

trickd122, you may want to consider using a different speedie. I dont know what others think, but in my opinion the motors dont really make much of a difference once you get them geared to your liking.

In my opinion you may want to consider getting a Tekin RS which is more advanced than most of the escs out there. I dont know how it compares to the new LRP one though.

The only thing bad about the tekin is that you need to get the hotwire programming unit as well. Without the hotwire you wont be able to get the esc fast cause thats the only way you can change the timing (and other advanced features).

Thanks, I have the LRP competition sphere TC now, I wasn't really thinking of another right now. LRP should really consider selling a programing unit for their speedo.
