RC10B4.1 FT/WC
black being the softest, green, then white for the rear. Then brown, black, then green for the front. Those, for the most part, are the main springs you will use. I have yet to see anyone use black for the rear, but im sure it is being done. I mainly run White rear, black/green front. These are with big bores btw.

And just in case you missed it or I forgot, mine was with V2's. I just grabbed the springs ahead of time. Was about to get the shocks but had my radio go poo poo so I held off.
I run 2 quarters right in front of my servo (with a shorty) and they are there to stay.
Those of you who have proline hexes or know about hexes for the b4.1... Have you guys ever had this happen (check photo)? I notice that when I screw and clamp the hex that the top posts do not look very even, is this even normal? btw, isn't the hexes suppose to clamp onto the axle pins? Also, do you guys scre in fully till you can't go anymore? so that the top two posts are evenly clamped?

I still want to know if that clamp looks right near the top of the 2 posts. It just doesn't seem even.

Ok good, and I thought I was going nuts. Maybe I got a bad batch, but mine were not holding to the pins whatsoever. Currently getting a replacement set and I hope they hold. Basically I just need to screw in till it holds to the pins, correct?

Keep in mind that when we did this years ago it was to remove the drag brake feel that you would get with brushed motors, specifically stock motors. Todays motors have no drag, or at least compared to the brushed ones they feel like no drag.
In fact, the first thing I was told when I came back and everyone was running brushless was that I would probably want to add some drag brake into my car so it felt like the old brushed motors.
Give it a try if you think it will help. Let us know too.
