Spring rate chart ?

[stefke]

I've found the ZX5 blanc setup sheets. But does anyone know where I can find a spring rate chart for the ZX5 ? Couldn't find anything on Google.

here you go

50 black soft
55 orange
60 orange yellow
65 yellow
68 blue
70 silver
75 light green
80 green hard

just copy and paste

Thanks mate.

This sunday will be my first outing with the ZX5. It's a hard track to find the right setup (surface is mixed dirt/carpet). Also curious how my new Sphere and Vector 3-star motor will perform.

hi stefke
not a prob,if you start with the stotfold setup and adjust from there i dont think youll be a million miles away,

I'll try it and post the results on monday.
Can't we make a sticky on this forum to post setup sheets (and only setup sheets, no dicussions) ?

You mean like one thread which you can only post Setups in ? no discussion or... ?
I can set that up if it'd help

[niggs98]

sounds like a good idea

[stefke]

Yes. Some general items like track, surface, result, etc. in the post itself and a setup sheet as attachment if possible (otherwise a list with settings in the post). Kind of an online database. No discussions or replies in order to keep things nice and simple so you won't have to scroll through 128 replies to find a setup that might suit you.

It's just an idea.
