i have had a few Castle systems though the years an i have never had any issues with them, although im never looking to break any records either. I run them under their limits generally speaking or play with the gearing to pull them back a bit. Comes with the joys of just bashing around, i dont need to be the fastest car out there.

That said, looking at LRP which one am i after. I have completely lost touch with what Associated is doing now electronics wise.

For a MM7700 I would start gearing at 8.18fdr(22t pinion/72t spur) to 8.57fdr(21t pinion/72t spur) with rubber tires on a big track. That is a front spool: diffs won't hold up! As for part numbers, go to towerhobbies.com and checkout their pinion and spurs category....

Thank you very much for responding - i had already ordered a 72t and a 20t witch is 9.00 and geared slightly lower then the 8.57 you said

will that be ok ? i know ill have to just see how the temps are but in theroy that gearing should work right ?

A 9.0fdr is a good start, but watch motor and esc temps carefully ! As for servos you can use just about any digital servo: jr z9100s $139.99 is probably the best out there, but you will need to check the manual for the right servo spacer....Remember the losi lcd drives(losa3344) for the front end.....

i see my nemesis is back on this Tc4. I couldn't stand the shock mounts on my NTC3, T4, B3 and SC10. I see AE finally made a change to the upper mounts on the TC6 are those Shock bushings (TA Pt # 31250) compatible with the TC4?

It's fairly standard, actually. I think it's something like 10. Most legit forums don't allow pic posting until the user shows they're a legit user (as opposed to a spam-bot that got around the other verifications) . . .

I just put a Spektrum S6070 in mine. Low profile style makes extra room to fit the receiver & ESC, but any standard size servo should fit.

This part has not changed much since the TC4 Factory Team. That edition the shock bushing was shortened so the shock angle was reduced. Since then the TC5 and TC6 versions are basically the same geometrically except they take a M3 screw instead of a 4-40. That being said yes, they are interchangeable provided you have the M3 screws and enlarge the shock mounting hole in the tower to accept it.

What are some changes I can make to increase traction in the front end. I am having trouble keeping speed up while making turns. I have t scrub too much speed in order to make the same turns that others are making. I am running 4 degree blocks up front and 1.5 degrees of camber. I have the camber links on the closest hole to get some camber gain in the corner. Is this too much?
