Did you also say that TC6 blades also work, I have not yet had a chance to get spares and if I need to switch out in a hurry I would like to be prepared.

Thanks,
Steve

Steve, I have several packs of TC6 blades we can test Saturday. Xray 3.5mm blades will fit the TC6 also and are thicker and take spool hits better as well...but at $1.00+ ea they otta.

Yes they do as well as the SPEC-R BD Blades and others. I've found the SPEC-R just to be a cleaner fit. The AE blades need to be lightly shaved on emery paper just so, as they are a slightly to tight into the cups. SAKURA ZERO blades fit as well.

Thanks..Scott....
I put on 2mm chassis today it was okay...I was getting too much rear grip after two minute marks...it statred to drive like a dump truck...
I even changed the rear roll center to high and stiffer spings in the rear (yellow to orange) front red spring

Some how the car drive perfect for stock,but for mod it is lacking forward bite later in the middle of the run...could be the chassis is too thin?

Hello,

I have a PRS TC spur on mine. I think Associated TC6 spurs will work and I also think the Xenon spurs that they made for the HB TCX should work.

Yeah, I noticed that and went to a short screw, whenever I build a new car I locate my dremel if anything comes up and I need to shorten a screw or whatever.
