Jaco Greens are a softer compound then the Blues so the grip at your track should be the deciding factor (softer rubber=more traction, harder rubber=less traction). Most rubber carpet setups mirror an asphalt setup ie: one way or spool, diff heights, spring tensions, and droop. You may have to play with shock positions, camber gains and roll centers differently than on asphalt. I don't run mod so can't help with the gearing too much.

Good Luck,

I'd like to anounce that I have come to an agreement with Syrocket Racing(www.skyrocketbatteries.com) to supply the US market. I believe Skyrocket Racing will do a great job supporting our products and have helped us in bringing our Layshaft to the US at the best possible value.

The Layshaft will have a worldwide price of US$29.00 plus postage. I expect the first shipment of Layshafts to be available in the US in no more than 7 days. Believe me I am doing everything I can to make them available as soon as possible.

We are also constucting our own website for orders to the rest of the world. Check us out at www.FlyingFoxRC.com

I will let you know as soon as we and Skyrocket can start taking orders.

Thanks again for the interest shown. It really mean a lot.

Would someone mind giving me a starting point for a setup outdoor asphalt. I would greatly appreciate it. The car is amazing and so easy to build.
Thanks,
George

I know it's a little late in the game but I thought I'd share some pics of my new type R. I did not include any under the hood pics as I'm sure by now everyone knows what to expect there I'm new to on-road (experienced in off-road-Losi 8ight electric conversion) and this is my first. The car is brilliant and was easy to build. It is also a unique design and comes LiPO ready right from the box-nice touches and helped my descision. I run on ad-hoc parking lot tracks against X-Ray and Kyosho nitros with high-end racing modified mills and hang with them with ease. Under the hood I run a Novak GTB, 3.5r brushless, TrueRC 5000 LiPO, Nomadio reciever and all 3 fans on the can. I am having problems keeping the rear from stepping out under acceleration after hard turns. To combat this I installed a 41 tooth overdrive pulley up front and now the rear comes around on me during hard breaking turns or hard off power turns. Any ideas for a fix in this area would be welcome. My next step is to try a different set-up like Schreff's Jackson set-up which is very divergent from where I'm set now.

I know the Yun Tong (Reedy) 35c Lipo's fit. I've heard of people using Thunder Power 5000 40C's but that involves some dremel work.

THE THUNDER POWER 40C 5000 MAH DOES NOT NEED DREMEL WORK TO FIT.
