Any chance anybody has Xray XB4 2016 or 2017 buggy car model? It looks like the one that is downloadable is from 2013 car or so which is match different than current one.

I've been having problems with the software on my MS Surface 4 Pro. I downloaded RCCC and purchased it and received my activation code. I drive Kyosho RB6.6 which is not available to download so I measured the car and entered my own data. First I had a problem where the drop down box for Rear Springs would always give me an error and I could not select a spring. The next thing I did was download the AE B6D file and as is it worked fine. I then modified the file with my own dimensions and that gave me many pop-up box errors when I would try to save.
I have the latest version of Microsoft.NET framework already installed. This is Windows 10.
Any ideas??

Bob,
Just measured up my old T3 Eu Rubber and uploaded the data.. Really like the application. I've been thinking about black carpet, and would it be better to have a lower chassis roll sensitivity for the black carpet as grip is typically quite high at the track I run at.
The reason for asking is that other racers are saying better to have a stiffer chassis and compliment with glueing your tires.

Bob,
If I were to use setup wheels that are 64mm in diameter to measure ride height and camber measurements then enter those values in the chassis manager, does this inadvertently affect readings when opening the setup tab, then measuring ride height with Jaco Blues which have a smaller diameter, where ride height will be lower without changing any settings including spring preload.
I assume that the setup page allows tires with different diameters to be modified on the fly, including ride height. Is this correct?

That will work fine. The model entered in the Chassis Manager is the reference geometry for everything. When you change tire diameter, ride height or anything else on the setup page the program calculates what needs to change from the reference model to achieve that. So if your model was measured using 64mm setup wheels and you change to 63mm everything gets recalculated to match that change.

I've built a model for the Destiny RX10s, I measured everything other than the internal shock dimensions. Would someone mind sanity checking it for me?

There is also something not right with the steering geometry. Normally the tie rods are straight not angled as they are in your model. It looks to me to be the Ysa value. It could also be the Lcc or Ysb values or even a combination of all three.
The graphic images of the suspension in the chassis manager and the setup pages are scale drawings so if you visually compare your model to the car itself of the Setup Sheet they should appear the same.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for all the help via email Bob, greatly appreciated. Is there a way of bringing 2 chassis manager windows up? I would like to do a comparison between two cars. Currently I'm uing snipping tool to copy one and then bringing the other one up but it's a little tedious.
What I'm trying to achieve is why my Destiny has very similar values in the setup screen (roll centre, stiffness, etc.) to an Xray yet has a much lower chassis roll sensitivity. Concerned I've got a measurement wrong somewhere so was looking to cross check before taking the car apart (again).
Thanks
