Pooooooowwwwwweeeeeerrrrrr!

Awesome write up as usual Mr T. :lol:

Cheers, I was just going to ask about that. I'm just setting my car up in RC crew Chief ATM.

I know this is for the experts talking set up, but new to TC's and built a 419 (great build) and just testing on some tennis courts here and the car is fantastic right out of the box.

I just have a grinding type sound that will be heard on a full stop to full throttle start (and a tiny bit of "bog" almost like turbo lag on a real car) but feathering the throttle from standstill will not produce this and will give me smooth accel to speed.

Sorry for the noob question and please direct me to the right place to ask if I'm off base here --- just thought you guys know this chassis

Thanks

Which motor and ESC are yo using ?

Are your belts loose? If they are too loose the belt could be skipping when you hit the throttle or the brakes hard.

13.5 VST2 pro and R10.1

Interestingly enough, just took it out again after cool down and NOT exhibiting it at all from full throttle at stand still ------ so its something caused by heat?

Car is just incredible BTW :)

Check your motor sensor wire.

All good there

Gearing? Motor timing? Blinky mode or turbo/boost?

41 pinion with the 111 spur and all stock settings other than that

If it happens again test with different sensor cable. I know you said it's fine.. Those wires are delicate and may appear fine.. But a bad wire can cause a lot of problems.

Has anyone tried the 42290 Carbon Chassis 2mm thick with steering bridge and steering brace?

I want to buy :nod:

Have an event coming up later this week - round 2 of the AOC run by Scotty Ernst.

Car prep finished tonight, new motor and new batteries has meant new wiring. Quite possibly my neatest job yet. Umino eat your heart out :D

Tempted, as I run on a super low grip track normally. And it is quite cheap.

Good luck. Shame I can't be there, but I am shooting for a Japan trip for later in the year to AOC at Yatabe instead!

Had a day of practise at IMCC, suffice to say, car felt really really good on track, but hard to gauge the pace as was the only mod. But consistency was good, so happy with progress in that department :)
