Im getting some help with tuning my diffs from a few guys that run 1/8 scale.
Curious to know what you guys think about diff tuning for 1/10.

As in normalyl for 1/8 they run lower rear oils. If I do that in the yoke (yes i know its not a HB!! But it should have the same principals) it makes it over rotate on power.

When I use similar oils front and rear it has more rear grip on power. I found it very interesting when I first played with it. A bit backwards.

Anyway the 413 does look really cool. And the suspension seems super plush on landings, doesnt seem to slap out like the yoke.
