looking for some aftermarket C-Clip ECS driveshafts for my T4, I have been looking at the Arrowmax ones I haven't been impressed by any of the Radtec stuff since they have gone away from the Roche brand, never really been impressed with anything from Spec R, what would you guys recommend?

On the setup sheet where the wheelbase is what are the 0 1 1 obviously related to hub spacing but what does it tell
And when it talks about o-ring on shaft it relates to inside the body or like up travel limiter
And is there any tips to calming the car down and not be so aggressive
Standard carpet setup
Mixed medium track carpet
TQ raceway
I'll pass on the gearing question.
Best of luck.

Hey I had a couple questions
On the setup sheet where the wheelbase is what are the 0 1 1 obviously related to hub spacing but what does it tell
And when it talks about o-ring on shaft it relates to inside the body or like up travel limiter
And is there any tips to calming the car down and not be so aggressive
Standard carpet setup
Mixed medium track carpet
TQ raceway
And last starting gearing for 17.5
Thank you

If the base setup is still too aggressive for you, dial back front camber, shim up the inner camber link and use second position for rear shocks , and /or use the rear flex hole on motor mount would all help.
I am running on tq racing too.
They just changed the layout lately, so the traction may feel weird, but you should be able to run well with above tips though.

Doing maintenance on shocks, no O-rings but they're on order. In the meantime can I found these O-rings:

and

Anyone use these and are they o.k. and do not leak.

Wanted to share my experience with avid alum chassis and xray flex chassis ( 301141), when running 17.5.
Last week, I was using avid alum chassi and I was pretty impressed by it, or I should say I was impressed by alum chassis in general, as that was my first alum chassis I have ever used.
I was able to achieve about 0.3 average faster laps with avid chassis. The car was just so stable and I could push as hard as I want. The only thing I wished I could have was a bit steering.
I tried xray flex chassis this weekend and , all i want to say is wow, I broke my best lap time with this chassis and my average lap times was about 0.4 faster than lap times when using avid and my fastest lap was 10.4 while it was 10.8 when using avid.
our track is considered as medium - high carpet track( TQ rc racing) . Although xray doesn't recommend their flex alum chassi on high bite carpet, but my personal test shows that it still performs well in high bite condition , it is as stable as avid chassis while offers more steering.
Maybe avid can perform better when traction is built up to super high bite, but I don't think it would be much better than the xray one.
Even though xray has more cut out area, but surprisly , xray alum chassi weighs the same as avid alum chassis, which has less cut out area. I think this could potentially means the material that xray use is heavier and possibly flex less.
So, in summary, I personally think xray alum chassis is a better choice than avid for my driving style.
Wanted to hear you guys opinions too.

I really like my hard aluminum chassis. It feels super consistant and predictably pitchable.
Hopefully i get to run against some team xray guys who use the flex chassis for some direct comparison. One runs stock lots where the other focuses mod. Id focus mod more if more club racers wanted it and my travke budget was bigger heh.

How is the flex between the avid aluchassis, compared to the xray soft and hard?
#688
I am not doing any scientific tests, but when I was twist chassis with 2 hands , I found I could easily twist avid chassis, but xray flex seems to require a little more force.

I'm trying to find a good balance in my car and my battery is a little under weight the 5600 lcg and starting to think its a bad idea as I'm wayy under weight and don't want to use a million grams of little stick weights what's a good battery bring my weight up and have a more balanced car left to right??
