Yes. You will need at a minimum the A800X sway bar parts to do this

Is there a video or an explanation as how to do the droop over ride height method?
Is it done using the setup wheels or the racing wheel?

Sorry if I seem slow in comprehension.

New to the AMX car. Picked up a A800Xa - I have just went through the car and setup per the manual. I will be running on low grip grey ozite and typically we run the rear softer than the front. The manual setup feels pretty stiff in the rear - is this normal? Anyone have a decent starting point for low grip?

Or just start from manual and make adjustments?


Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the AMX family! Lots to learn but its a fun process

I think its normal to have the rear stiffer than the front - otherwise the car will have a hard time rotating! In normal spring/damper cars you may run a softer spring in the rear but given the geometry, the rear should still be harder than the front.

I don't run carpet, but if I was, I'd probably pick up a setup from petit-rc and use that as the baseline.
e.g. Mad Max recently drove on what he's marked as Low-Medium carpet
Awesomatix A800XAH - Max Machler - GP3F - Longwy - 20-21.01.2018

Give it a shot and see how it goes

I hope it worked but it's a setup from Brandon Clements on a low traction asphalt track. I run on a low bite grey office carpet and use sorex 28's and this by far was the best setup to be in the ball park. It is a carbon chassis which helps a ton and the other huge thing I messed with was the rear active toe..on low traction I run 2.75 toe in and as minimal active toe as possible at 4 short.

Also I tried 0 shims under the at21s or inside arm ball studs and it had ridiculous traction like not joking I popped a wheelie with it lol. It was to much though and my tires would get way to hot.

I have the stock LS1 steering rack and arms on my A800XA. I just received both the AM14LS arms and BSSX steering rack set-new part set. With the LS1 steering slider rack what steering arms am I supposed to use --AM14LS or stock?? When I try the A800 style bell crank steering what arms am I supposed to use??
thanks

With BSSX steering rack the AM14LS are highly recommended on any surface.
With LS1 I recommend the AM14LS for asphalt and the stock AM14-3 arms for carpet.
