So are you guys doing front springs in the rear to get the higher spring rates or is there an advantage to running shorter springs?

Yes.
In this case, longer is always better. Beggars can't be choosers. Sorry I had to take that one. |

Watch me get Losi'd on the start. :lol::lol::lol:. Made the mistake testing lighter sway bars in this main and I did not get the hang of them until around 2min 50sec mark. Still not my best idea to test them in A1 the truck needed more bar for this track. Fun to watch the start though. First time I have had that happen to me. Just a down side to running a 95oz truck over a 110oz Losi.

You can use the clips that come with the kit for limiting shock travel. The little tab will line up in the slot on the lower spring retainer.
Thank you gentlemen for all the support and ideas!! Sal |

If the battery IS about 6.6v and takes 6000mHa or more, well...you have a problem with the motor. I'm not sure how you take that much current out of the truck in seven minutes by any other means. I'm not even sure how you get that much current through the drivetrain period. When your saying it could be a problem with the motor, could it be the timing I have in it that could be playing a part in this whole thing? It's a reedy sonic 550 4.5 with 10 degrees of advanced timing. |
what's the popular body for this truck?
|
shocks
quick question,so if im running emulsion style on the ft shocks,do i still need to run any bladders in the caps,because i noticed they didnt come with any o rings for the caps,and could this be the cause for my shocks leaking?.....i have checked all the assembley and my seals, everything else is good but they leak all the oil out,and i cant tell if the oil is coming from the top or bottom

Does anyone know if the new battery tray for the factory team 4x4 will fit on the exotek chassis?

So I drove charged the batteries after a run yesterday. They are starting off at 4.20v but are still taking almost 4900 mAh. that was after around 9 minuts of run time with a few crashes that I had to go and fix my truck.

also, someone was saying to get An rx8 and pro4 and my runtimes should get better. Any truth to that do you think?

I'm confused. They are 4.2v per cell or is that the pack voltage? Because 4.2v per cell is close to fully charged. At 4.2v for the whole pack, yowza - that's way too low. The lipo shutoff should be about 6.6v.
4.2 per pack. I am charging them seperatly as 1s, not "saddled" I have never used 1s batteries, should they still be at 4.2 and taking 4500mAh back in charge?

Might be. Do you have the timing in on the speed control or is it on the motor?
