I must have misunderstood you. If you want less tighten the front or loosen the the rear diff. I run the the black rear anti roll and run the front diff tighter. I have tried just about every set up from the B44 to the .1. I have my kit dialed right now. Loving it. I may post up a set up sheet. I need to figure out how to post one. Our track has a lot of traction. Its based off of the starting set up from the B44.

Well its a almost free new system, might as well put it in something and cut the cost! But Ya I'll get the reedy 7.5 with the tekin rs
Pro once I get the practice in and feel like spending the money haha. But for now, 5700 would be best? What esc mods should i do? And will temps be hot?

are they saddle packs, i found the 65C PRO RACING SERIES LiPo - 5500mAh / 7.4v / 2-Cell (2S) SADDLE PACK at fantom but not the 5300 mah.

is there a solid battery configuration or do you need saddle packs?

I just received a b44.1 for christmas and I am completely new to rc. I am looking for motor suggestions. I am pretty sold on tekin and I am thinking either a 10.5t or 13.5t from them. I plan on starting out just screwing around and racing once I get some practice.

Default RB5 Shocks

Anyone using RB5 shocks? If so, I'm looking for a starting point to set up. My brother gave me a set and want to give them a try.

Default Tires

So I'm trying to find an aggressive tire. I love the holeshots hook up great. Been running on a track that has a fine sand. Most tires I found say for hard packed clay.

What is a good screw/bolt/nut/clip/etc...kit? Blue bling would not hurt my feelings, but is certainly not a necessity. I recently snaked a B44 off of flea-bay for a tidy sum and I'm going to tear it down and replace any stripped or sorta stripped hardware. I guess my main concern is quality, some of the hex holes are tiny little things and I can see them stripping easily.

Also, if someone could list the needed hex tools, size wise. I'm alright with wrenches, but my hex drivers have all wandered off since I last wrenched on a R/C. I have oodles of allen wrenches but using them is a PITA due to the 90 degree bend making it tough in small spaces (I'm also old and can't read the sizes stamped on them).

One last request, I know it's in this thread somewhere, but it's a BIG thread. What size saddle pack fits comfortably within the lipo tray? I'd like to avoid modding the straps or the battery connections if at all possible. I like soldering but get a bit jumpy around batteries that can pump out 200+amps when asked too.

Thanks,
Dan

I run a 1258 and have zero troubles. Plenty of torque for 1/10th 4wd, fast transit time without being overly twitchy.

Same, however I really wanted to put a 1257 in it, but a 1258 was all I had laying around.
