Arm sweep and anti-dive / anti-squat are two settings I've literally never tried, but wondered about.

I think I heard one of the fast local guys say he was using anti-dive to keep the front end up a bit more and maybe a little flatter on corner entry, and then some arm sweep to get back some of the steering he lost from the anti-dive.

I've always thought it was really curious that the Cyclone TC and TCX always have arm sweep in the stock setup, but most cars don't.

AE said ETA 2-3 weeks on the out of stock 6.1 parts! If you dont have parts dont crash...

Need a little help with my setup guys. Car drives great except it gets a little loose in the rear through the corners. From about the apex to exit. If I give it a little throttle it does okay but it still slides a little. I'd like to eliminate the sliding around its doing.

A screen shot of my setup is the best i can do

Robert,
Let me know what ya need, I might be able to help and most everyone at the track is pretty good about helping keep others going when parts break.

There are a number of things I might try:

Lighter oil in your gear diff: 32.5 or 30

More rear toe in: 2.5 or 3.0 degrees

Less caster: 4 deg

More droop: 6/5

Higher rear ride height: 5.2/5.4 mm

Hope some of this helps!

Thanks Steve. I'll give those things a try tonight. I appreciate the suggestions.

Rear toe at least 3 deg
I would try the 2B position for your rear shocks.
Try either 3A or 7A for your camber link
Try removing roll bar.

Looks like you have 0 toe in on the rear add 2-3 degrees toe in on the rear arm mount.

anyone run 1000wt gear diff oil? seems like everyone is running 30wt - 40wt shock oil... feels a little thin.

littlealex 02-24-2012 11:53 PM

i just put kyosho 500k diff oil in my front diff but it dont feel as stiff.

Jochim_18 02-25-2012 12:01 AM

yes i run 1000wt but in SpecR diff not AE. Used to run 40wt but like you said found that was too thin as well.

how did you fill the diff?

Bappe 02-25-2012 01:16 PM

is there any online store that has 6.1 parts in stock?

tried my car for the first time today, i havent been impressed with the quality and fitting on the parts when building the car, but im impressed on how good it handles on the track! easy to drive, LOTS of steering!
