I gave up trying to figure out what does what. There are most likely 2 or 3 ways (maybe more) to achieve any given setup goal with this vehicle.
I am slowly learning NOT to take anyone else's setup advice. No 2 tracks are exactly alike, and no 2 drivers drive the same. Just pick one thing at a time to adjust, try it, be ready to change it back immediately if the desired effect is not achieved, and then try something else.
One thing I'm working on now is adding weight. A metric shyte-ton of it. I currently race on a 1/8 scale outdoor track and I think more weight is essential to compete the wind and against the heavier Losi's.
Exactly, which is why i suggest starting with my setup for outdoor tracks since thats all i run on, and then ask me or one of my team drivers where to go from there, otherwise your going to get a million different opinions.
The Exotec chassis is a must in outdoor tracks, as well as weights in the nose.
