Validation!!! You want Validation??? Always good on rctech.
Trust no one including yourself.

Most of the TA05 stuff can be found right here on this forum if you don't mind wadding through 5 years 734 pages of stuff. Easier now that search works Also the manuals have hidden tidbits that many overlook during the build.

Suspension mechanics applys to all chassis and my three sources are:

1) Corner at the limit by John Stranahan - John has analyzed many chassis and summerized his finding. Warning: You will have to read it a few times to wrap your head around some of it.

2) XXX Main Chassis setup guide - a paperback that most LHS carry.

3) Manual for the HUDY on-road setup station: I don't own one but you can download the manual. Great chart that suggests what to change when.

4) Just found this, great stuff on tamiya blocks

My suggestion is to build the TA05 to stock to begin with, it's a decent chassis right out of the box. Adjust it so you are not fighting the car. Then DRIVE and DRIVE some more. I 've seen guys drive somebody elses car that is pushing like a dump truck like it was on rails.
