My problem is I am using the tekin 1900kv and rx8 on stock linear settings. I purchased the 1900kv after reading all the forums and "everyone" saying to go with it. Well it is gutless I am using a 17t pinion gear. Do I need to tune it with the hotwire or use a different profile? My next problem is the suspension is way to soft it seems. I got the protek 6400mah battery and it was way to heavy...which is wierd because same battery austin blair is using. Anyways I purchased a few more of the smaller lighter 4100mah and the buggy still feels way to soft. I am driving on an outdoor track that is med size, jumps knee and waist high. 30ft double. What is the next stiffness in springs for the front and rear? or should I try running thicker oil all around? what has been working for everyone?
Try going up to the red rear springs (TKR6034) and down to the pink (TKR6035) or green (TKR6036) fronts. After further testing we've found that the buggy does really well with a stiffer rear spring a a slightly softer front. If you stay with that big 6400 pack I'd keep the stock front spring the same.
