Greetings. We just acquired two used TC3's. Can anyone help with a good chassis setup? Feel like a kid at Christmas, waiting on the new toys!!!
Thanks

Well most guys who run Abs tires. use 0 camber all the way areound, and runna very soft suspension. 20Wt oil, and soft springs are a great starting place.

0 camber all the way around? dont think so d00d. Maybe on a TT-01 because you cant adjust the camber.
The common config I've come across among people is to have 0 camber for the rear wheels and anything up to about 5 degrees at the front. I run 0 rear and 5 front.

i drift a TC3 too, they make great drifters. 0 camber, 21 pinnion, high speed steering servo, 19-27T modified motor,decent batt packs(3000 mah at least). look at the post about how to make the abs tyres. do that. suspension dosnt really matter cause most drift surfaces are quite smooth. the rest is cosmetics. i love the TC3, thier sooo easy to work with

if it drifts well why mess with the setup? suspension or camber, toe in and so on make very minimal difference to drifters, when i realised this i started to make it a bit more pleasing to look at, body and chassis, deep dish chrome rims, all to make it look as close to a 1:1 scale drifter as i can
