    NAILED IT! GREAT VIDEO!
    Just me........when I'm marshalling, I am always watching the handling of other drivers RCs. See their setups if they are driving dialed. If I notice someone struggling, I look at how it's handling. I will then go in the pits afterwards and ask if I can just look at something. I get permission first, then just do the simple checking of all suggested in this video and ask if they mind if I can make adjustments. Then run it again and let me know. I'm not saying i have the answers, but I like providing the basics.

    Great info. I appreciate how you’re telling folks to go out and drive their cars and actually feel them out! I couldn’t believe when I got into racing how many cars I’ve seen with “user error” set up errors. 👍🏻

    Can you suggest something if the car seems to push to much into corners and doesnt corner that well. Anyway for you to give a quick guide on different ride heights low to high do and what other adjustments do?

    • @AdamDrake
      @AdamDrake  4 роки тому

      You could lower the front ride height, thinner front sway bar, or more toe-out in the front.

    Hey Adam great video! I just built a tlr 8ight 4.0 and would like to know what you think a good set up would be for thunder alley as that's my local track. Thanks, have a nice day.

    • @AdamDrake
      @AdamDrake  4 роки тому +3

      I would start with -2 front, -2 to -3 rear for the camber, 2 degrees of toe-out.

    I noticed that the stock turnbuckles I have on my MBX8 WE I cant use a wrench on them as they are round. Did you replace the stock ones with something different?

    • @StefanSchluppeck
      @StefanSchluppeck 4 роки тому +1

      There are option parts available which can be adjusted with an open-end wrench. Mostly they are from titanium. Mybe FP2148 Lunsford Titanium Buggy Turnbuckle Set, or other.

      Very nice! More toe-out in the front or maybe thinner front sway bar. Also make sure the servo saver is tight.

    Ciao Adam, abito in Italia e in questi giorni che sono chiuso in casa sto smontando la mia Mugen MBX6 ECO. Pensi sia una macchina ancora buona per fare delle gare?

I'm still proudly running a MBX6 (yes the first model) to this day , amazing machine !! The rear just feels a bit nervous compared to Kyosho though.
