Im having trouble getting my WCE out of slow corners.
I run Stew Nobles complete setup with sorex 28 tyres indoors on carpet, with SP 10.5 motor, lipo and LRP Sphere TC.
i run CS high grip additive.
It seems if i keep the car rolling its fine but out of slow hairpins or corners where u have to brake, when getting back on the power the rear end steps out like a 2WD. Seems to be due to the torque of the brushless motor.
I have de tweaked the car, all settings are fine as car is superb through faster corners carrying massive corner speed.
Only thing i can think of is the diff feels a bit rough but adjusted correctly?

I run the same set-up and had the same problem. Try no shims under the rear pivot supports, 2mm rear droop, 3mm front droop (over ride height) 35wt shock oil will also help.
Good luck and I hope that helps you, it did for me.
A smooth rear diff is also a must have, take your time breaking it in then tighten it up.

It sound like you are powerslide. You may have too much on power steering and/or get on the throttle too hard before the Apex.
Like Lazer said, remove shim out or add shim under the camber link on the upright. If the car works perfect everywhere on the track/layouts I would try to be easy on the throttle at the Apex.

Hi Richard,
Are you the Richard Baker thats goes to WKRCC? If so, I'll be there on Sunday, come and find me, I pit in the back changing room with the folk from Eastbourne. I run the Cyclone too and the setup is not far off the standard carpet setup (http://www.hbeurope.com/pdfs/setups/...rpet_setup.pdf) but with 1.4mm roll bars all round and Orion 60wt upfront and 50wt rear. I also use Sorex 28 tyres, brushless and LiPo so we are almost identical in the key components.
Anyhow, come and find me and I can watch your car during practice and then we can see if making a few changes helps you out.
Tim Hancock.
PS. Oh yeah, if you're not that Richard Baker just ignore the bit about coming to see me LOL
