Rear Camber on higher traction clay

Has your ride been feeling a little to planted , rotation feeling sluggish ?
Those tight turns making you work the gas more ?


Try moving the rear chassis camber stud to the outside location.

Tip good for tighter indoor clay tracks

Hey guys having a few set up issues with my 4.1 WC so i figured ive give tech a shout.

First off im running the 10mm shocks still but i installed tsr's blatters and pulled the bleed screw. Seems with 30wt the rear is still to hard, having a bit of bouncing and rears a bit loose. Going to go to some 25wt and see what happens, any other suggestions?

Also on the fronts the foam conspirators have actually came threw the bleed hole, so im considering putting the screws back in. Can anyone tell me what affect that will have?

Lastly im having a good bit of nose drive over the bigger jumps, having to throttle in the air just to keep it level. Foam is in the front to push the batt back as much as possible. Will getting the rear end softer help this out or is there something else i should try.

Running regular 2s batts w/ HW 8.5t motor

Thanks in advance, Josh

i have an access to a 3D printer that prints fiber reinforced nylon so i can make some parts.

and if not front brakes, do you have any idea for something to print as an upgrade?
any thoughts?

got some running in with the new RPM a-arms.

From what I can tell, they will take a beating. The track I tried these at has 12 in thick wooden barriers around it, and plenty of times coming off of of the bigger jump you try to take the inside to avoid the rumble section that is so bit it unsettles the little buggy. But, you can smack the barrier at full speed, I think I did that a few times for sure while the car behind me would run into me at the same time lol.

No damage. I did run the wide RPM bumper as well, but, still catching the wheel edge too so plenty of opportunity to snap stuff.

I didn't notice any bind at the track towards the end of the day. I need to take the front shocks off and see how it feels, I'll report back.

I'm posting this also in the TLR 22 thread since I'm still on the fence of my next vehicle.

Has anyone driven a B4.# for a while, gone to a TLR 22, and came back to a B4.#? If so what were the reasons you switched back? Does anyone drive both and like one VS the other for certain reasons? I plan on running stock buggy for the foreseeable future. My skill level is intermediate.

*Edit* Parts support for AE and Losi are equally good at my LHS.
