I want to race outdoors for a few week end and not up to date on what setup I should use, I don't want to get the spool because I am not going to race that much outdoors, the oneway that come with the kit is what I am shooting for, the question is I have the solid shaft where the spur go is it ok to run the oneway with the solid shaft? and what spring is most use for outdoors? the spring I have is the one that comes with the kit, are they any good to use outdoors? I think that is all for now, thanks.

Probably best to stick with kit setup and if in doubt use this http://www.hbeurope.com/pdfs/setup_A...ore_worlds.pdf
Actually youll probably want to dial out steering on that setup with a one-way

Ok guys I am really confused with how people are listing drop on setup sheets.
I was checking out the setup sheet from andy moore from the worlds. It list ride as 5mm and droop as 5.5mm.
Now when it is listed as 5.5mm for droop does that mean 5.5 mm of uptravel. So when you lift the rear of the car and slide a ride height gauge under the chassis it should read 10.5 mm (5mm ride height plus 5.5mm droop)
or
Is it 5.5 on a standard droop gauge.
or
is .5 mm above ride height of 5mm
I am a little confused as I am primarily a foam carpet guy and you never run more of 1mm or so of uptravel/droop above ride height.
Thanks

We use the HPI droop gauge to measure droop. The droop on his worlds setup sheet is done this way.

Is there a battery strap or any way to mount a pack without using tape?
Or a way to mount stick packs?
Thanks!

Dave,
I've heard you can fit an X-ray battery strap with some modifications from one of there "annually released" cars (don't know which one), but I've never attempted this and don't know the procedure. Also these might be useful as well if you are contemplating this task.
Are you having trouble with tape? or just don't like it??

Ha, no, I do not own the vehicle yet!
Well, I will soon. But I was interested in having a strap for the convenience.
By the way, the WCE and the black one do not differ in DESIGN except in color/shock towers, right?

Should be here by this Friday.
Hm, I wonder why HB doesn't make a strap?
