Re: Re: New 2.5/3mm rear bar
Originally posted by Sow&Steady They feel that with their particular set-up and the high grip track, they needed to prevent the rear part of the chassis from rolling in order to reduce front grip. Strange but that is what I heard. I found that if I set the rear sway bar harder, I would get more on power steering. The rear of the car squares up better and faster in the chicanes. My sway bar setting with the oneway front; Hardest (90 degree) in front Approx 12 mm from edge of the stock 2 mm sway bar and with the sway bar connected to the inner mount on the lower rear arm (not outer as per stock) Yellow front spring (3rd position on front shock tower) Red rear spring (3rd position on rear shock tower) 40 wt Serpent Oil with 4x1.2 mm holes all around Rear diff is medium hard with 40 shore tires all around. Originally posted by Sow&Steady As for you test. If you're looking for on-power steering, the first thing to try is to increase caster. :D |
Originally posted by Sow&Steady I can definitely feel that the yellow shoe is softer than the black one. Maybe my black shoe is old stock and the yellow ones are "fresh". Originally posted by Sow&Steady Anyway, next experiment ... JP RED shoes. :sneaky: |
Originally posted by packetdreamer is the melt down generally caused to the nut setting being too loose or too tight in the clutch? |
Re: Re: Re: New 2.5/3mm rear bar
Originally posted by InitialD I think the sway bar settings in general has got a lot to do with relative settings. How hard is the front / rear sway bar compared to the other. I found that if I set the rear sway bar harder, I would get more on power steering. The rear of the car squares up better and faster in the chicanes. My sway bar setting with the oneway front; Hardest (90 degree) in front Approx 12 mm from edge of the stock 2 mm sway bar and with the sway bar connected to the inner mount on the lower rear arm (not outer as per stock) Yellow front spring (3rd position on front shock tower) Red rear spring (3rd position on rear shock tower) 40 wt Serpent Oil with 4x1.2 mm holes all around Rear diff is medium hard with 40 shore tires all around. Yeah that's a quick way but I would look into the rear toe in. Less rear toe in = more on power steering not to mention higher top speed.:nod: That's what I love about this car ... it allows me to mess around with the setting and still be able to drive it ... unlike the older brother the 705! |
Originally posted by Pyramid Clearer pics (I hope:smile: ) of what recent new hop ups available for S710, Speaking of the new servo saver, I dont see the difference with the stock one. Tell me what the new one has to offer. |
Originally posted by sn4il Hehe. No way. Ive never driven rc car before. Can I do the brake-in on the starter box? Thank You all for replies and helpful tips. Max Doing the break-in on a starterbox wouldn't provide any load on the engine and maybe there is a danger of reving too high. |
Originally posted by Sow&Steady Yes, that's what a lot of guys here are saying but that's the trade-off one would need to evaluate hence why I wanted to test them. It seems they last a good 2 full races (3-4 heats and mains), so it they're truly low-friction, I'm willing to try just to beat Mark. :sneaky: :D |
Originally posted by InitialD Yellow clutch shoes soft?:confused: Their material is harder than the stock black one. I have actually not replaced the clutch shoes yet since I got the car this year. Black or yellow. |
Originally posted by InitialD Getting desperate?:lol: I think Mark is preparing some special stickers at the rear end of his bodyshell which should read "Eat my (tire) dust" or "Catch me if you can".:lol: |

Re: Re: Re: Monoblock
Originally posted by InitialD New chassis? :eek: :sneaky: Agreed. I found that on hard frontal impact, the chassis bends at the engine area as well as the part where the receiver pack sits. I think the aluminum X bar support and the monoblock would be better to resist bending at this area. Anyway, talking about the worlds in Brazil, I believe from Team Serpent Holland, only Michael is going? |
Originally posted by Sow&Steady Definitely getting desperate, he's going to be at the track before me! :rolleyes: Onkel Sow has spun a yarn about flying off to America this week, just so he can go to the track (which just happens to be his LOCAL track) and practice each day :nod: :flaming: |
