I know nothing about how this works but if AE is calculated lb/in, can you not compress them 25.5mm to get a N/cm and then convert to lb/in. Or does it just give you the same rating as compressing 10mm.

The torque is a measure of force over a set compression distance (10mm). I couldn't accurately compress 1" with this gauge. AE quote a weight or force rating, not a torque.

Neal,
The AE springs where all with in 1% of stated values which are indeed in lb/in (lb mass per inch displacement). Torque would be lb-in (lb mass multiplied by inch displacement). |

Right, after a conversation with Allan, I'm back on track. Bloody waste of time that degree in engineering was

Recently purchased YZ-2. Really nice bit of kit. Wondering any chance to make stock springs work good on carpet? Anyone can share stock spring shock setup for carpet pls? thanks

Best bet is to try Tom C's silverstone setup earlier in the Thread, although you will need slightly stiffer springs..

I'd advise picking up Yatabe Orange for the front (YAS) and Green (YAS) for rear.

Just ordered Yatabe front orange and purple rear springs before i read Alans post. Never mind, will use bigger pistons or thinner shock oil in the rear. First time going out with 1/10 2wd buggy.

The B-Max2 is a very durable car, I have broken two or three parts in total in three years.

Has anything been rectified with official rates for these new springs? I'm baffled there's still nothing on petit rc, the springs they have are not the new yatabes being used.
It's making setup comparison very hard at the moment. |

I have collated them into a spreadsheet for easier viewing, please see attached. I don't believe it's a 100% accurate but it's certainly a lot more accurate than the previous one. I believe Neal is still working on this.

In theory yes, but silly busy at work right now so not had a moment to measure them. My collection of new yz2 springs are still in packets.

I use these two spring charts to compare my associated springs with the yokomo ones and the yatabe ones. Come in handy quite often as they hav the same measurements. And I think it's pretty accurate?
