You really need to talk to some Revalation guys but a couple of things that might help . . . .
Lose some rear droop - maybe even get it down to 2mm. I would have thought 2mm of rear camber was too little, but if your tyres aren't coneing, then . . . OK. Yes, smaller tyres help as does a stiffer set-up. You need about 4mm of tyre split to run the 16/19 conversion. Concentrate on driving smoothly, and even a bit slower in the traction roll prone areas . . . really! :D One flip can easily translate to a loss of about half a lap. |
I had the same problem at this years nationals I was trying a harder spring, harder anti roll bars and it just kept traction rolling then I noticed that other MTX-3's in the pits were running a softer spring and softer anti roll bars than me so I tried it and it worked I still don't know why but it worked and thats the main thing :lol: :D :sweat:
Hope this helps:sweat: |
having a car too stiff sometimes is a bad thing. I went with my buddy to crystal park and all his car did was traction roll right after the straight, after like the 3rd lap he went home:lol: :lol: :lol:

has anyone here, broke a radio tray? I have seen two cracked in between the tank and throttle servo already and would like to know if this is a common breakage part. wondering if there is a thicker radio tray available. I am a novice driver and would like to stock up on breakable parts for the mtx-3. thanks.

I was the guy runing with a pedal radio. When you put on a softer set up, it makes the car less agressive , so the car will not respond as quick. |
When you run a softer setup the car rolls more. As the car rolls it pulls the chassis closer to the ground making the car less likely to traction roll. A hard setting prevents the chassis from rolling over in the corner making it more likely to jack over the cornering wheel.
A mid corner traction roll usually means you are too soft. An immediate traction roll usually means you are too stiff. |
For tomorrow.....
Happy New Years! alots happend in 2004 hopefully 2005 will be even better....wink wink new mtx4 maybe? lol:nod: :lol: |
Thanks for the reply guys
A mid corner traction roll usually means you are too soft. An immediate traction roll usually means you are too stiff. Hope you all have a happy new year :sweat: |

Happy new year guys !!! :tire: :tire: :tire:
What do you suggest for this kind of problems: understeer and oversteer in one package :eek: :eek: My car is not stable at high speed, the car seems not planted to ground. The car would easily get too much left or right after I made small correction from transmitter's steering at high speed. In tight corner, the car have tendency to understeer if I enter that corner too fast. Ditto in sweeper corner, I can't hardly full throttle while other could. The car would overshoot to grass area if I enter that sweeper too fast. Exiting tight corner is another challenge because the car sometimes would spin out 180 degree at full throttle. Please... please... please.... What would you suggest ? I don't have to explain my current setup because my setup is sux anyway. My circuit condition: medium and long sweeping corners, few tight corners, one hair pin, and one curve long straight. Track temp: 41+ C. Weather temp: 33 C. Humidity: 78 % Smooth asphalt track with medium to high bite if not dusty. |
does any one have a site where i can get a receiver pack

Originally posted by serpentpro28 you need to upgrade you side braces with alum,and also the radio tray support,if you using the stock plastic you have a lot of play on mid-part of the car' |

Originally posted by miniracer I already have aluminum side brace and radio tray support. I have repaired the crack and sealed all the edges with ca. Hope this last until I can get a replacement tray. Anyone use aftermarket trays from 3racing or Kai? Feedbacks? Thanks for your replies!:D :D :D My stock one broke the first crash, 1.5 years ago, I still have it on the car no problems. |
