Hi i would like to to know how do you guys setup ur TA05

Problem1: I'm using the carbon reinforced chassis. Check, it has no tweak (flat on the board). Shocks are also of similar length. However when full with electronics, my TA05 will sink down at the motor and servo side, making the chassis not horizontal with respect to the setup board. I assume its perfectly normal as the motor, ESC and servo are heavier relative to the Lipo Battery.

My question is, how do you go about rectifying the above problem? Do you use shock collar to raise the lipo side up or vice versa?

Problem2: I use tamiya standard springs with TRF Shocks. When I try to adjust 5mm ride height by turning the shock collars. I achieve the 5mm ride height BUT I noticed the suspension is very hard/stiff. This happens especially when i turn more than 4 rounds (front) and 2 rounds (Rear). Where am i gg wrong and what should i do? use Tamiya short springs?

Your help is much appreciated. Thank you!
