You do need to hit jumps with more thought than your avg 1/8 setup, think of it more like a 1/10 (ohh wait it is a 1/10 ;P)

This is my basic setup for anyone who hasn't given this a shot yet I highly recommend Casey's basic setup with these changes

FRONT - 37.5wt, stock springs, stock discs, NO SWAY, droop 89, and ride hight at 27mm.

REAR - 27.5wt, silver springs, stock discs, 1.8mm sway, droop 101mm and ride height at 28-29mm.

-AKA enduro 'soft' for pretty much any condition outdoor
-SC10 stock tires for our indoor offroad work best ***I do reduce droop a lot on our indoor offroad track

Where can I find the person who makes/sells the spring cups to allow the
8ight springs to be used on the SCTE shocks.

Even with a dual stage esc like the rx8 that runs sensorless at higher RPM's, the only way you could get the effeciency he is claiming at least out racing is by gearing low, or taking out a ton of torque out in the esc, thus making it even less comparable to the 1410. The book maybe re-written soon though with the launch of the newer tekin 4pole motors.. I'm pretty excited for these bad boys.
