Yeah I ordered the bladders and o-rings from them I just didn't know if I should run the stock pistons or run a 3 hole thanks ill have to order them. How do the pistons feel? Also this question is for Cristian Tabush at Reflex or if anybody knows where I can get there RSD suspension lock blocks. I see that there in the tuning kit but not sold separately and what's the advantage vs stock suspension blocks. Thanks.

3x1.1 pistons are very nice. It is what I usually run.

As for the block locks, we discontinued the item. They were not different blocks, but rather some shims to help the suspension not get loose.

Ok sounds good just placed an order for them. Also I was trying to contact u guys cristian reason being is that I ordered a few things this weekend and was wondering if everything can ship together vs separately. If possible can you guys email me back or give me a call names Tim thanks. If not its ok everything should be here by sat.

Any setup sheets from asphalt nationals?

I have a LRP 17.5 and I was wondering whats a good starting final drive for my TC6.1 worlds car the track almost looks like Tamiyas track but reverse. Also I want to buy a radio I'm looking to buy one of these- Airtronics MX-V FHSS-2 2.4ghz, Spectrum RC DX3C DSM or the Futaba 3PL 2.4ghz FHSS, so if anybody has opionions the goods and bads of these radios please let me know cause I'm looking to buy asap. I'm leaning towards Spectrum cause the features and the small receiver cause its a tight fit in the worlds car but is most expensive out of the three. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

The front and rear tape should be half the width of the Lipo, and the center strip to be the full width to support the Lipo and the flexing is at the front and back of the Lipo.

The two servo mounts will prevent the area underneath the servo from flexing naturally as well. Either get a floating servo mount or remove one of the mounts and use black servo tape under the servo so it will allow the chassis below it to flex.

Loosen up all of the screws for the bulk heads give the chassis a few twists with a bit of force but not a super man twist and tighten the bulkhead screws up in a criss cross patten.

Then to remove tweak take your wheels off and put the car chassis flat on your setup board and loosen up all of your top deck screws and have somebody push down on the shock towers while you tighten your top deck screws in a criss cross pattern. Ive had my 6.1 tweak many times and stray under throttle and this has cured it every time.

Thanks for the help!! I will be getting it back together and see how it runs.

I'm just a bit curious you guys....... Are the actual Team drivers for Associated using the floating servo mounts? I would really like to read Kevin, Mike or Rick's take on this . Are they testing this as we speak or are they doing something different?

For sure they develope the successor of the actual WC and/or new parts these days. If it has a floating mount? I think AE will join this trend. I hope they introduce some new ideas with the TC6.2 or TC7 in a way Schumacher did with the Mi5.

I guess it would be nice to see what's on Rick or Ollie's car compared to what the the average TC6 racer is driving.

I've seen both Rick's and Kev's cars and they run an all stock TC6.1 WC.

The only non AE parts they run are different springs sometimes (HPI, Yok, RSD) and RSD Shock Bladders. They tell you this in their setups.

:nod:

...and this is something that is much more encouraging to drive this brand than having permanent winner Marc Völker hiding his car all the time, knowing it has nothing to do with a stock BD7.
