I had the plus 12mm rcrd chassis, but I faced a jump and bent it behind the servo. So bought the plus 8mm factory team chassis and love it. I could not get a set up for indoor to work with the rcrd chassis.

so I am going to make the spektrum race at trackside and want to run stock and mod buggy... I have never run 17.5 blinky before does anyone know a good gearing to start with and the amount of timing in the motor for a duo3?

Thanks!

It was a joy building the B4.1 FT kit, my last kit was the sc10 4x4...YACK!

All the little upgrades really made the car drives/handles alot smoother than the RTR. Put the car thru its paces at ocrc, adjusting the ball diff and slipper, didin't have a single thing break on me, not even a pop ball cup! Reedy sonic is smooth as butta. The car is a little bit on edge, but I'm kind of used to it with the rtr so will wait before going with +8mm.

Thanx for the recommendation on the upgrade! Best $220.00 I've spent yet in RC...yes I got a great deal!

For those of you with a good rhythm section on your track, what weight shock oil are you running? Right now I'm running 35/30 with brown/green springs and it is good everywhere except for the rhythm section. I want to go lighter, but the lightest oil I have is 25. Has anyone had success with oil lighter than that?

Try this for the rear shock , 27.5w #3 piston , hand drill the piston holes with a #55 drill.

I'll have to consider that, thanks. What weight in the front, 27.5 also, or 30?

I run a 1257 for my "lighter" vehicles, including the B4.1. I don't think you need the torque of the 1258 for these, and you'll be surprised at how much of a difference that hundredth of a second response time is....

so general consensus is between 100 and 170oz of torque and .08 speed or less at 6v?

Agreed! It was a handme down from the 4x4, may eventually go with the 1257

I don't see a point to run a higher TQ servo in a lighter car/truck. You don't need the TQ.

The 1256 works well in a 4x4 SC10. Which is what I use mine in. It's fast. not as fast as the 1258 but it's fast.
