| i'm runnin basically box stock ten sct. added braces and a couple of other goodies with a mmp/3800(5000/40c batteries)with rebars ss all the way around, battery all the way back. we run on small tight indoor tracks with some decent size jumps with little run up, pretty hard, smooth, with light dust. i just seem to push in the tight turns alot and tend to be very nose down on the jumps unless i'm full throttle in the air. the esc settings are stock now. i had bumped up drag brake for the turns and messed with the throttle curve a little. this seemed to make things worse, so i returned everything back to stock. i will be swapping to the oils in diffs when this point series is over, kinda wanted to get a baseline. any suggestions? i'm probably pretty vague here, but any info and opinions would be greatly appreciated. |

| If you want to get a good baseline starting setup, download one of the pro racers setup sheets on the Losi website and start there. If you want good advice here, post your entire setup. |

| Use this setup. It is a great place to start. http://www.losi.com/ProdInfo/Files/L...atChampion.pdf With this truck you cannot let off the throttle once you leave the jump. You don't need to go to WOT, but you cannot let off either. |

| Setup your car first, this will cure most of your pushing issues. The factory team drivers around my area (socal) recommend the Aaron Lane JBRL setup (on the Losi site) as a base line setup and then make minor changes for local track conditions. For my track (OCRC) the Lane setup is just about right. We run more toe out on the front, giving you better turn in. I run about 2 or 3 degrees. Make sure you run a good metal gear servo and tighten up the servo saver. The factory setting for the servo saver is too loose and will give you a bad on power push. Most run very tight or full tight. I tighten mine all the way with blue locktite on the threads. A lot of people complain about the nose down at first. Soon you'll love it and use it to your advantage. Pros fly nose down. |

| 30wt all around in shocks, softest sway bars, move your battery to the back position, and try aka gridirons in supersoft all around. Losi's tend to push anyway but rebars got no sidebite. as mentioned, get setup sheets. and try diff tires, most of your setup is tires |
