If you had brakes prior to upgrading your radio I am guessing you didn't recalibrate the esc to the new radio. Try running calibration again and make sure your EPA and dual rate are at 100%.

Searching for a replacement for Calandra Green side springs. Someone have an idea which comes close? Any of the Associated springs?

I don't think anything currently available is that hard. Green was the second stiffest of the old springs. I still have some whites (2 steps softer than green) and they are stiffer than the current CRC .60 springs.

Default Bittydesign LSM19 vs. Protoform AMR

Hi,

did anyone some more testing with the Bittydesign LSM19 shell for the 13.5t class?

I‘m wondering how the LSM19 performs compared to the AMR?
I found some comments that the LSM19 is like the BMR, but others doesn’t agree to that. So there is no clear opinion for me...

thanks!

I use those hard springs at my Pro10 car where they work pretty good. Green for rear and purple for the front.
Yes purple was the stiffest of them, XX-hard according to their own label. But it seems to me they are discontinued at least can´t find them at their website.
I have white springs but found them too soft for the rear. They do work but green works much better.

Need such springs now for building a spare car.

These are front springs, but they might work.

The AE gold is pretty stiff, but not much different than crc .60, maybe between that and the old crc white. Ae blue is in the current tuning window but nowhere near the greens.

Hanulec would know. He had all that obscure nonsense ;-)

I got a set of BSR tires with BSR rims, but the screw head was wayyyy too big (even for a normal screw)

What am I supposed to do? Should I be using a different screw to mount the tires? Or do I just have to live with this? Thanks.

I just ran into the same problem even with a normal cap head not a button head screw like you pictured. Try a standard m3 cap head and see if it’ll fit I’m curious maybe a newer batch that was molded a bit tight??

Nope. Standard M3 are always a tight fit on BSR and CRC wheels. Serpent and I think Xray used to make special M3 cap heads with smaller diameter heads. Otherwise you run them in tight, turn them down a little yourself, or switch to a hub that uses 4-40 or M2.5 screws. Wheels from most other manufacturers don't have this problem.

OK thanks.
If I can find old CRC springs I will try the Schumacher and hope they fit the CRC spring retainer.

We used a lot of parts from older cars at our own Pro10 cars and most of the stuff is discontinued now.
