Hello everyone,
Just joined this forum but not sure where to post this question. My 10 yr old son started racing with the Serpent 3.0 Gt about 7 mths ago after driving all types of rc cars since he was 3 yrs old. He has been competing with older guys who have been in the sport for years and holding his own. I am his mechanic/pitman and it has been a learning and rewarding experience for both of us. Came across this forum and have been reading a lot of valuable info especially by Dan Vector, Tony Luna, Paolo and others. Especially like how you guys help out newbies. I would like some help with the transmission. Using the SLX1 but not shifting into second. Re screwed shift point screws in and then backed out 3.5 turns but problem persists. Appreciate any assistance. Also some help in set up. Present set up:
Shock springs: Fr - Black Rr purple
1000 cst x 4
Diffs: Frnt - 500K Rear - 60k
Droop with flo control blocks: Fr - 24 Rr - 27
Ride Height: Fr -9 Rr - 10
Camber: Fr - 2 Rr-3
Toe: 1
Spurs 62 and 57
pinion 19 and 24
clutch: 2 carbon and 2 Al
Hard springs
Tires: GRP- Fr S5 Rr S3
or Sweeps 45E.
Appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Nafspeed
