Set-up for indoor track

[JensK]

Hi guys.
Just complete building my CR2. Looks and feels awsome :thumbsup:

My first competition with the car will be at an indoor, carpet track.
It is carpet all the way, and the tire recomended to use is schumacer minispike with the spikes cut off.

Anyone tested the CR2 at similar conditions?
If so, set-up tips would be nice

Not got one as yet. I'm using the one off the AC website and it seems to work quite well.

The AC base set-up is very good, start working from there as I don't know the amount of grip non-spiked Mini Spikes give, are you allowed to use a traction compound?
Test the set-up at your track with those tyres and report on how the car was, easier for us to help if we know what the problem is (traction, steering, stability,...).

This weekend are V-Rossi and me going to race in Germany with the CR2.
It's an indoor track, full carpet. After that, we will post the setup we've found ;)

exellent guys.
I hope to test at a track with similar conditions within a week or so.

Yes, tire traction compound is allowed. After testing I will report back.

Looking foreward to her what set-up will work for you;)

Set-up we came up with in Langenfeld (5th and 7th in the A final) is this:

Front:
35wt - Blue spring - Red piston - 0,5mm limiters
Camber link 3-B
Shock #2 on tower, #2 on arm
30gr of lead in nose
Schumacher Stagger Rib (cut down beading)
-1,5° camber

Rear:
32,5wt - Pink spring* - Red piston - 0mm limiters
Camber link 3-C
Shock #2 on tower, #2 on arm
100gr of lead under battery pack (with battery pack of 240gr)
Schumacher Mini Pin Yellow (outer row cut off)
2° anti-squat, -2° camber

*Depends on how bumpy your track is, we had a lot of dots (like they used here http://ets.redrc.net/gallery/?nggpage=3 ), if bumpy use Pink spring, if not Red will work best.

ESC settings (Speed Passion): power profile 4, brake force 100%, drag brake 15% (if you use LRP I'd use profile 2-3, initial brake 2, drag brake 1)
Gearing: 20/75 (AE spur)


Car was very easy to drive and fast, if grip levels aren't extremely high or you have a lot of hair pins/sharp turns, use 32,5wt front and 30wt rear like the AC base set-up.
