Hello !

May be you can ask Amain Hobbies to order the EVO @ TM for you.

They had the E4RS II, as well as the parts... but it seems they don't have the EVO yet.

I done some testing of different sway bars today at my local track. I have found the kit sway bars the best for me via laptimes and how I like the car to drive.
I went to a 1.3 front from the kit 1.4 at the front and found it had less steering at hi speed but was smoother low speed and for the rear I went from the kit 1.2 rear to a 1.3 and found the car lost rear grip at low speed but not in a good way but was ok at hi speed, This was tested with hpi silver springs change in sway bars with other springs could have a different effect.

All in all the car has a great balance and good cnr speed and also responds to setup change well. It's a very nice car to drive .

I agree with you Sandy, I can say that my results are much better with E4RS2EVO

For comparison, Sandy what kind of oil do you use?
I use 400, the basic setup is written 600, but for me it's too hard oil.

Yes, 400 is the basis.

I think TM use 600 because they have a lot of 600 bottles in stock , which is no more a good choice with the new pistons we choose.

Interesting oil range is 350-450

Anti roll bars are 1.3 to 1.5 front and 1.2 to 1.4 rear. I mostly use 1.4 front with 1.3 rear.

For springs, I mostly use the Ride ones (green/blue/red/purple).

I have been using 350 oil everywhere so far and I think 350 to 400 oil is a good start point. With springs I have used the yok pink and blue at most tracks and car is very smooth and easy to drive.
Also I use tshox green springs front and rear and they work very good and a lot of grip, at some tracks too much.

With swaybars I find standard works good on most track perfect if u go lighter in front car is smoother and nicer to drive on infields and and s turns But can under-steer on high speed sweepers.
So maybe harder on rear sometimes better option but its just all about trying to get the balance u like.
And always these things are just tuning options for different tracks, tires, grip levels and driving styles. no1 is the same!!

Hey mate I have been swapping between xray 350 and 400 oil in my shocks I have found that 400 has more grip and a better balance 350 is only better if its very cold, Hope this helps

Hello

Try this setup on carpet: http://blog.hrcdistribution.com/setu..._II_EVO_LT.pdf

It's a mix between our carpet setup of last winter (with previous E4RS II model), and outdoor setup. All the washers and spacers are same as our carpet setup (roll center and suspension). You just have to start with this basis and to manage springs and oil (I think 400/450 cst).

If you have very high grip, you can try front diff with Ride putty (45).

Hello

Right now, there are no US retailer for the EVO and EVO parts.

Amain Hobbies had the E4RS II (2012 car), but not the EVO yet. May be you can ask them to order the part you need.
