Kyosho small bore springs......

Insane,so much better than the AE springs....Got proper ride height control back again,and LOTS more confidence in the frontend....more consistent

So suprised,will never go back to AE fronts...too soft,and sagged after a yr..

Orange Kyosho front,Green AE rear..dialled on outdoor bluegroove...Vassa setup
with 5grams on the servo extra...


I was struggling,the rear of my car is good enough,but the front was inconsistent..1-2 secs off the fast guys..always running 4th,5th..this put me back on there laptimes
And give me my extra lap....

Now,just to do it consistently....woohoo,B4.1


Picked up the 4 rates in Kyosho between the green AE rear and the AE grays...Also,FT 0 and 1 degree hubs.....tuning time

I'm about to get some Losi BB springs. I know about the traxxas shock collar trick for the top. What do I need for the lower spring cups? Losi cup, traxxas etc etc???

Hey guys
I went to island raceway yesterday and my car felt like crap it would be really inconsistent and every time I tried to corner fast with it then give it the throttle it would slide out but then I count get the back end loose when I wanted to like through some of the corners it would also push alot (when I got home I realized that my servo saver was really lose so hopefully tightening that will give me some steering back). When I drove my brothers car with pretty much the same setup it felt alot more plush and more consistent and cornered alot better. We both have the plus 8 chassis losi silver springs in the front and losi yellows rear 30wt front 27.5 rear

Starting to feel like this thread and the SC10 thread are on a repeat function.

The chassis will settle the car down some and make it more consistent/stable, easier to driver and easier to push harder.....its better just about everywhere!

If you dont enjoy helping others with info in regards to an ae product or the ae b4 car then why bother posting? Their are plenty of WILLING people to help out, we dont constantly need you to remind us of a mere search function. I am a fairly new racer that is still learning and it irks me to see people respond like you did, you have done it multiple times as well. If this hobby isnt enjoyable to you, why involve yourself? I dont care if their is a search function on here, help a brutha' out! Do you act like that when the race director calls for volunteers or the guy across from you ask's if he can borrow a tool or have a part? Chillax bro!
