AERO 1

[Lee]

That was something i had planned on trying, but i thought i would build it as kit first

Dave my vital stats are 29x24x17 anything higher than 17 and it will hit the steering rack, i had to take a smidge off the front of the rx as it was as it just caught.

[super__dan]

Just reading some posts, does the car not have any toe in as std?

[Lee]

Erm..... It has some on the front if you want it

[DaveG28]

I've never known an rc car run without rear toe in, don't they use it make the car more stable accelerating?

Is it not likely to fishtail badly without it?

[bigred5765]

its so thin it works like a shark fin and need's no toe in
lol

Hmm, much spare space, mine is 39x26x14? Although there's another lump on top of that, hopefully I'll find a way of gettin the higher bit out of way of the link!

Used to run very little toe in on the rear of the Pred ... about 0.5 deg per side .... agree though that it will benefit from having some toe in at the rear

I think pidge actually won tiverton national with a 0 Block, i dont think he had the 3 degree one made up till a while later

I have made a block up to give it around 3 degrees, i got a 6x6 ali bar from b&q and got the dremel out , its pretty easy to do. But aero will have some out in the next few weeks if you dont fancy that option

[gramey]

I had a similar issue with my Predator when I had it and I did as you've already thought and velcroed it to the inside of the shell. It made it easy to swap between cars and saved squeezing it in somewhere and trying to shoe horn it in and out evertime you wanted to swap it over.

[DaveG28]

Wonder if I could do the same with that rx....

[DaveG28]

By the way, is that an S9550 I see in there Lee? If so do you know ehere you got your servo horn from, I am struggling to find one that isn;t aluminium!?

[Lee]

Dave you could remove the casing and heatshrink the reciever if you wanted, that might help

Also yes it is a S9550, i just used a horn i had from a kit i hadnt used, like a b4 or a bj4.

Legend

I don't think that's correct but I could be wrong - the toe-in was there on the early prototype but the later ones had less/none

I think he done the Euros with that too.

[Lee]

Ha ha what a legend.

You could well be right jimmy, i just know pidge had some made up, i just thought it was after the tivvy nat.

Just had an e-mail back from the AERO guys,

kit diff balls are carbide, and the size is 3/32. (guess the size makes sense now I remember the diff screws are imperial, so the balls would be too!).

Glad they're carbide, should last longer!

Are you guys happy with the Aero? I heard its balance during long jumps isn't that good. Any other stuff I should know?

[Okawari]

Hello,everyone!

It is a contribution from Japan.
I want to buy A-One.
However, I transmitted an email to BK Racing, but there is not an answer.
I know that The Raceplace sells it.
However, I want to buy it from them directly because I want to buy various parts and Kit.
Would you do any good advice?

Thank you.
