Race Wraith setups
 

Im building a Wraith to race my local offroad track ultra4 races. I was wondering what everyone is running for setups. I.E. battery location, electronics locations and shock setup, I.E. drop or no droop. Also i want this thing stupid fast. What does every body run for motors??? So basically im saying brag about your racing wraith.....lol.

Its because everyone has something different. Browse through the forums and see what works and what doesn't. For me, that was the hardest part. Finding all these great ideas and deciding which one to use.

I'm in the same boat I'd love to mount a 5000mah 2s or smaller mah 3s pack somewhere hidden like on my 2.2 but ideally I'd want that heavy lipo in the rear. Problem is it throws off the scale look unless I cover it up with scale items but then it makes it annoying to swap packs.

I barely have enough space to put my Rx, MMP and CC BEC in my electronics tray up front. But with the lipo that heavy up front that's going to be a lot of nose dives off jumps. If I go to a smaller pack that requires more battery swaps....I guess I need to figure out how to run two 1s packs in series maybe?

Three words. Dual-stage pistons.

None of this is that difficult haha! Just as a background I have been racing u4rc for the last year and a half and I won the last series in socal with my wraith and twin hammers.

Batteries: I run a 2200 mah turnigy 3s under the hood with the hood being hinged its super easy to swap batteries.
ESC: mounted on a jevne racing tray in front of the battery.
RX and bec: On the floor in front of the drivers and passengers feet.
Shocks: Proline power strokes with drilled out pistons and lighter oil or gmade piggy's
Motor: ROC 412 3100
As a note speed is not always a good thing slow and staying on all four tires is much better.

Look for red beards build. There wasnt much left of the cage but it had almost unlimited up travel

Here's some of my rig. Its similar.

I run a 2100kv 1/8 scale motor. Crawl on 2 and 3s go fast on 4-6.

I'd rather have a lower over and jump to 4 and 6 then a,3000 plus over motor making heat and not near the power
