We are running Spektrum in 12th stock with no problems using KO 949 servos. I have no complaints with the system at all, great innovation.

Nick

this depends on your packs. when I ran 3300, I ran a rx pack. i was using a 9x2 with ko949. now with 3800, i removed the xtra weight of the rx pack. the 3800 had plent of power for 8 min.

I am waiting on 3800's and ran some junk 3300's. I will have to try again when they arrive. Thanks.

Hmmm, I thought for sure the old car I had here was bought as a 12LW, in fact I'm positive it is. Maybe, I added the dynamic front end to it and just don't remember doing so.

I tried last year with TRC wheels and they wouldn't work with the old axle.

Starting to run 1/12 again for the winter.

My question is when I set the rear shock up I can vary the length of the ballcups by cutting them. So when the shock is at full travel do I want the rear pod to be level with the rest of the chassis? Or do I want a bit of droop?

Reason I ask is last week my car was hooking and spinning around entering the 90* corner after the straight. I ended up putting on super stiff front springs as they were all I had and ended up with big push exiting turns. I've now got a selection of front springs but need to know what is the common setup for the rear as far as suspension downtravel.

I had the rear pod set to where it would droop alot because I didn't think about it when I put it together. So I'm thinking I was transferring to much weight to the front when I let off the throttle taking the traction away from the rear.

I'm bit confusion on the color label of Jaco tire. Is this site's info correct on rating?

Let's say if the track temp is at 30'c and I feel the traction is not enough, should i go for pink or for purple?

Sorry if those question sounds stupid... :cry:

the shore rating is not a temp rating. it is basically a stiffness or firmness rating

That chart is not right.

Platinum is 25
Pink is 30
Dbl Pink is 35
Purple is 40

I forgot what Gray and White are but they are soft.

here is trc's rating system

Cypress, are you going to run at WOH this winter?

I'll probably be back down after the Indoor Champs. Not being able to run Paragon, and the relatively low turn-out have kept traction too low for it to be a viable testing facility in preparation for Cleveland. I'll e-mail you and let you know when pulfer and I might be down again.

Gray is 29
White is 25

Hmm.. I assume higher the number is, harder, right?

White = 25
Platinum = 25
Gray = 29
Pink = 30
Dbl Pink = 35
Purple = 40

So.. what's different between white and platinum?

different foam families.
Platinums, Pinks, Magentas(dbl. Pinks as Jaco calls them), Purples all are the same with the difference being shore rating. These have a higher "natural rubber" content.

Whites, Grays, Blacks (Tans by Trinity), Oranges, Red are all the same foam family which is called exotic foam. It has less natural rubber than the above family but they are softer and seem to provide more grip overall.
