Does anyone know of a F1 car that has approximately 60mm (2.3622inch) side pod links?

Are there any adapters I can mount onto my MR33 Setup station to make it work for my F1? Or something to 3D print?

For the Hudy setup station you add part# 109325
Then it works for the front, you don't need anything for the rear of course.

To see the steering angle, you move the steering to one side, then you move the slider to the inside wheel and you measure that angle, after that you turn to the other side on the radio and check the other inside wheel. It should have the same value for both sides.
If you do not get your head around who to do it, please ask anyone on your local track. I am sure they will show you how to do it.

Great decal selection of F1 decals that you can clean with body wash and they are still there - RC Decals from the uk. Only took one week before it was in my hands.

Setups for that car might be outdated depending on what surface you race on. Older car setups tend to be for grey carpet(original ozite). If you run on the new black carpet, those older setups aren't going to help all that much.
Low grip = harder oils, stiffer side springs (to a point). Asphalt or grey carpet , soft -med center spring, 50 at oil not a bad starting point.
High grip=softer oils and side springs. Black carpet, softer center spring, 30 wt oil in a shock. Really soft side springs and lighter sides damper oil.
What you are trying to control is how fast the rear pod can articulate. The rear pod doesn't really move while driving (it's free to find contact with the ground), both rear tires stay down. The pod movement allows the front end to rotate while rear stays flat with rear tires in relation to track. How fast it can rotate determines front grip and speed of handling.
If grip is high, you can handle lots of movement without unsettling the car. If grip is low, slowing the pod movement adds stability. This all pertains to side to side movement. Rear in line spring controls forward grip, go as soft as you can without it bottoming out.

Whatever compound for rubber TC on your track will work just fine for rubber F-1.
Sauce tires longer than TC, maybe 15-30 min for F1. Depends on conditions but you will have to test that out for yourself. Also, 30 SPF sunscreen works really well for rubber tires on asphalt. I used to soak and bag them overnight before race day with sunscreen. Use normal compound before each race.

I'm trying to get F1 racing at our local asphalt track it is really nice and smooth. Does anyone know if I should start off a class with 25.5 or 21.5 motors? I assume 21.5 would be more fun but I'm not sure? Input?
