Thanks for the rough corner measurements! 40 grams extra on the front of the car out of the box still seems sub-optimal to me. Might work on a few surfaces, but knowing you have to add extra weight to adjust the front/rear bias is unfortunate. Wonder how long until we see speed controls and receivers mounted behind the center diff.

Yes, 50:50 as standard would have been a good idea...marketable too.

That wouldn't surprise me lol. However, it would just roll over to the next time they do it.

The odd thing i actually find interesting is that I think the last e-cash timeframe was later in the month, whch would have fit perfectly here. Its like they moved it up.

I bet they will do that. I'll be pissed if they do. I'll be canceling and ordering from Amain late Sunday night if I don't get order confirmation before then. I can't support that garbage.

I went with amain from the start and the only hold up now is finding the time for myself to build it!!

I found myself thinking the same thing today when my 3yr old son was helping me wrench and just decided to play with him instead before I had to rush out the door to get my daughter at school for her concussion specialist appointment only girl I’ve ever seen get a concussion playing JV volleyball but got everything done on my list so Ah life happens it’ll get built I’m just lucky that my wife bought it for me cause she knew I wanted it but wouldn’t buy it for myself do to the situation we’re in and have been in with my health so I’m just greatful I got one to build

Build help
 
Does anybody know anyone that would want to build my car for me? I am a quadriplegic and love to drive my cars but I cannot build them or work on them. Thank you

Im sure lots of guys would do that for you. Id ask around your local track. Id do it if I were closer.

I'd gladly build! Just handle shipping, and consider it done!

Just a lot of variables for a new platform to overcome on such short notice. I'm sure in time they will nail it down in time, but I personally would be very surprised if they come away with a top 5 finish.

So were you surprised? :)

When can we expect the EB410 specific servo arm?

Using DG Designs and jmcelroy42 work (thank you both) a CG height assumption of 40mm (a 20mm ride height and half of the stuff on the chassis plus some change) and a 290mm wheelbase (2mm shy of the maximum allowed by ROAR rules, because I can't find that info pertaining to the EB410) every 1g (attainable even for 13.5T) of acceleration(positive or negative) there's 228gr that are transferred front to back so the weight bias during a 1g of acceleration would look like this:
F R
645 1008
39% 61%

Skipped squat induced CG changes and if the tires can take that 1g of acceleration (a bit lower transfer but remember we run anti squat so no big deal, the tires are the big deal but I think on upwards of low traction this info is solid provided the very scientific weighting method by DG Designs). This only happens for the numbers shared by DG!

@AntH3000 and @Krio, you seem knowledgeable, I like that. Always remember the car isn't static during racing :)

@Tekno, if you want me to keep spreading your secrets send free stuff to me. Just kidding!

I think you can just use the old one they have. Not sure they are making a eb410 specific one.
