Default RE: steering upgrade, HYPER 8. reccomendations?


ORIGINAL: GRADEE

im running the upgrade shocks i got with my hyper 8 with 30 oil in them. front and back. have got the off white springs (sorry thats all i know about the springs)
have got the best tires for the indoor offroad track i drive at. servo is a 15kg rating hobao (i think, dont quote me)
excuse me being a noobie but whats the servo saver?
and whats the difference between the 2 tires that you stated? how do they make it work better?

Softer springs, stronger servo, lighter shock oil, better tires. Make sure your servo saver isn't too loose. Sometimes when we can't get enough steering, we run Crime Fighters on the front, and Bow Ties on the back. We call it ''Bow-fighters'' and it works well if you can't find enough steering.
The servo saver is a spring loaded connection between your servo and the steering. Look it up in your manual, it will explain how it works. If it's too loose, it will let your wheels move more than the servo is allowing.
