Re: Krawl's "SECRET AGENT" My mistake. I thought your scale in this pic was reading 5.9 lbs but it must be 5lbs 9oz. Still... your build is inspiring to the rest of us who just can't seem to get sub 5 pound trucks to work worth a darn. "thumbsup" http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...t/IMAG0991.jpg |

you are right and I was mistaken...this scale reads different than my large scale. 5.9lbs That picture has an slw and a Dh on it. 6lbs with the Dh combo and 5lbs 11 oz with my slw setup. |
Re: Krawl's "SECRET AGENT" Hello, awesome chassis design and great setup informations "thumbsup""thumbsup" You wrote... FRONT: axial xr shocks preload 8mm internal limit of 3mm external limit of 10mm fully extended length. 101.9mm fully compressed length 85mm actual stoke 17.8mm rear shocks: axial xr shocks preload 10.5mm internal limit none external limit 13.1mm fully extended length 107mm fully compressed length 89.5 mm actual stroke 17.39mm ...102 and 107mm fully extended lenght. I think there will be a problem with SCX shocks. They are 91mm or 96mm (96 with longer rod end) and that's very close to your compressed lenght. So??? Greetings Frank |
Re: Krawl's "SECRET AGENT" Quote:
You should be able to run them with the longer ends but at an overall lower belly height. Is there a reason you want to.run those over the xr shocks? |
Re: Krawl's "SECRET AGENT" Not to "post jack" what is your experience with traxxas big bores? |

I was thinking I might rebuild my shocks and pack the grease in the o rings to keep the oil in even better in my xr shocks. It should probably work very well for most other shocks too. |

Re: Krawl's "SECRET AGENT" Did you try moving the rear lockout weight into the wheels yet, results? |
Re: Krawl's "SECRET AGENT" Quote:
yes... and it feels more planted than before in the off camber down area. the weight is farther from center on the axle and you can never go wrong with that"thumbsup" |
Re: Krawl's "SECRET AGENT" Quote:
What's your total wheel, tire, foam, weight on the rear with weights included? |

Re: Krawl's "SECRET AGENT" I am at 6.7 oz with my Khaos setup, so I guess I will just add 1 oz to mine and be at 7.7 oz |
Re: Krawl's "SECRET AGENT" Quote:
i have been doing a lot of foam testing for the last few weeks and it is truley amazing what a very well set up set of tires and foam will do to a truck. i have not changed one thing as far as "setup" during the testing. i have seen first hand how tire and foam setups are more critical to overall performance than any link/shock movement at all. there have even been a few combos that made me want to throw the truck away and start over:shock: at that point, i go back to my staring point to reasure myself that it is the combo and not me or my truck... i really think once you guys get the trucks set up your main focus will become tire and foam tuning. i have said it before, but it is the most important thing... the tires and foam are the only things that are keeping you on line and not off course."thumbsup" |
Re: Krawl's "SECRET AGENT" Care to share your foam setup? Are you a soft or firm foam user? |
