If you are having traction issues, go with soft 'mechanical' settings, meaning to say soft t-bar, soft centre spring with some damping grease on the friction plates and soft tires from Tamiya or Ride.

Try it with Hard tires from Tamiya or Ride also. Also you can try lower ride height at the rear compare to the front. Something like 4 mm rear 5 mm front.

Front springs wise, you can try from the hardest and slowly proceed to a softer spring depending on your driving style.

Electronic setting wise, you might want to try with the default setting on your QC3 and slowly progress with the throttle punch on your ESC if you are having no traction issues.
