Oooh, good diff setup advice... I'm going to try that at the track today.
So I finally got to drive my F104w
I'm running the car on "room temp" street pavement.
The car off power, pushes. Reasonably, but pushes. On power, the car is pretty difficult to deal with.
The car can break the tires loose at roughly any speed below 15mph. So acceleration is takes a lot of care not to have the back end want to chase the front.
I have the HobbyKing X-Car 45a brushed speed control. Any time I get on the brakes the car wants to come around.
Should I be using a loose diff setting as traction control to help the acceleration and braking issues?
What's a "good place" to start with for putting oil on the kingpins? How about the damper pad? I bought a RM-1 shock, and will be putting that on tonight. I have the stock fluid in it now.
I also picked up the 1.3, 1.5, and 1.8mm 3 racing t-bars to provide some tuning there.
So... what's recommended? I'm all ears.
