Aero Setups

[DaveG28]

Hi All,

Interested to see what setups people are running on the car if anyone has run it yet, specifically:

1. Damper oil weight

2. Gearing (I don't know the final drive so not sure what people are running, if anyone has a 5.5 or 4.5 motor especially 'd be interested to know?)

3. Slipper settings

4. What electrics (servo's/motors/esc's)

Hopefully I'll be able to get a few pointers from it!

Hi Dave

This is what i am currently running

1, Front: Losi red piston with 40wt
Rear: Aero piston drilled with losi 54 holes (Blue)

2, on Nosram/LRP 5.5 (with sintered rotor) - 21/84

3, Slipper set to 250gramms on the tool . But my advice would be to start loose and work your way up gradually. You need a bit of slip to "save" the gears

4, Tekin R1 Pro, LRP/Nosram 5.5, Team Almighty EnerG4600, KO 2413

hope that helps

Yeh, as wraggy said, its a set of digital kitchin scales and a lever arm with drivehsaft attachment. It allows you to consistently setup your slipper without the guess work. I think Aero are working on a something at the moment.

I have made up a quick setup sheet for the Aero. Have a look i dont mind anyone using it. Let me know if i have missed anything off it

Had a good day today with the aero, i seem to have ironed out a lot of the small issues

I did 3 runs before it snowed and finished them all, so reliability is ok


The car had masses of steering but was also very predictable, i used a diff, usually im a 1 way man but i felt the diff was easy to drive and the brakes were good for the short blasts between corners on todays track.

Here is my setup from today, any questions please ask.

Lee, good skills with the setup sheet

You refer to losi piston number, are you runing the losi piston or re-drilling the Aero pistons??

I watched your car in your last run and it's starting to look like a serious contender....

Cheers jim, its getting there

The pistons are aero ones drilled to various sizes, losi and ae pistons are a slightly smaller diameter so the oil goes down the outside instead of through the holes

There is a few more things i want to try but i am confident i can turn up at kiddy now and the car will be pretty good

Hi Lee,

Are you cutting any spikes off the tires (outside edge) or running them as standard? If as standard are you getting any grip roll?
