Default Broxtowe setup

Guys,

After a little help with a setup for broxtowe, ran the one below at the weekend but found the car very pointy and seemed to have bad stablity issues with the inside rear wheel unloading.... (running a roll bar did help!)

Front:
Std front camber plates - no shimming
Losi Green Spring
40 Wt AE oil
Number 2 Piston
Hole 3 on tower
Outer hole on arm
10 deg caster
-1 camber

Rear:
Std camber plates - no shims
Losi Red Spring
30 Wt AE oil
Number 3 piston
Hole 2 on tower
Outer hole on arm
-1 camber
3 deg rear block
0.5 deg hub
2.5mm on hub
0.75mm under rear block

Silver sway bar

Any advise / a base setup to run would be appreciated. Running a Lipo weighted up to the same as Nimh

Thanks in advance!

Ur just a girl Dan!!

We ran Adams setup Chris, with a lil tweaks here and there.It tended to lift the wheel on exit,i think it was down to,to much traction myself.Maybe try a longer rear wheelbase next time dan,or something abit more drastic like an oil/spring change! Dunno if my car was better than yours as i ran the edit oil? How diffrent is the edit oil compared to the AE oil?

I still wheeled it round for 3rd so carnt have been that bad!

Good knows, just think its my bag of tallent running close to empty again!

Looking at it, I was running the Worksop setup from adam, theres a few bits different for his Broxtowe one. Probably be work trying that!
