I'm starting with my Hybrid setup, plus a few tips from Pavidas' setup:

Front:

- 700w Kyosho oil
- 1.4 pistons
- White springs
- Second hole from outside on shock tower
- Second hole from outside on suspension arm
- 22 deg caster blocks
- 5,000wt front diff oil
- front ride height bones level or slightly below
- middle hole on caster block
- B mount on bottom
- High position for upper arm

Center

- 50 tooth spur
- 13 tooth clutch bell
- 1 carbon, 2 aluminum shoes
- 20,000wt Center diff Oil

Rear

- 600w Kyosho Oil
- 1.4 pistons
- Blue Spring
- Outside hole in tower
- Second to outside hole in suspension arm
- 2 deg anti squat block
- 2.5 rear toe block
- hubs all the way back
- camber link is in inside middle hole in tower and outside hole in hub
- lower hole in rear hub
- 5,000wt diff oil


We'll see how it works . . . so far, not too bad
