Marc,
15* spindles will make it easier to drive but will not provide as much initial steering going into the corner. The 10* spindles will allow you to enter into the corner, will make the steering a little more sensitive and you will loose some mid-corner steering on power. You can play around with the kick-up in the front to find a happy middle depending on which way you go. I like the 10* spindle over the 15* for the track's I've been running on. Hope this helps, Mark maybe not agressive enough in the 180's!? my truck is built, ill drive it like that but noticed you use 10* spindles was wanting to know how much difference there was and how it acts with each! I have your setup minus the 10* ill go with that til I order parts later thanks! |
Marc,
It really comes down to personal preference. I always carry both 15 and 10. If it's a really rought track I may choose 15 over the 10 just to smooth it out. If the track has tight 180's then I'll go with the 10, if it's fast and flowing I may go to the 15's. Hope that helps, Mark |
Thanks Marc, I have both stock and 15 degree as well as stock and +1 rear hubs, I just went through my spares!
I'm going to 2 new tracks, 180's were always my weak areas |
i learned with 180's and tight turns in general is that you have to break at least a little bit before hand to get the weight back on the front wheels before turning in more so than on a buggy where you may instead just throw the rear into the turn to slow down.

Looking into picking one of these up as my first truggy... I am a complete noob and am reading up as much as I can...
I am wondering though if someone could explain to me the different motor/esc shenanigans... specifically the kV of a motor in conjunction with the battery being used. If you could even just link me to somewhere where it is explained in greater detail I would really appreciate the help! Thank you. :D |
What bodies fit our trucks with little to no modification?

Very nice. Could you post some photo's from the side, front, and from underneath? I like that body, so before I go swoop one up I would to see how it really fits. I appreciate your help.:nod:

thanks man...sorry for the delay...I gave a close up of the front wheel well so you can see the cut outs necessary to run LARGE wheels and the space needed for the front camber links - I probably will dremel out the entire wheel well flares for a cleaner look, but I'm trying to live with it for a bit. All of this would not have been needed if I figured out a way to mount the front end of the body higher. Important to note, I used the Proline mounting system by driving the threaded screws into the wing mount. This way, I can quickly swap out and replace with the wing should I want to run the original body. Diversity boys!
