Set-ups
 

I've got a few questions...

Im kind of new to RC drifting, but not new to RC
Just wondering what kind of set up would you recommend for a TT-01, TL-01 and a TA-03?
I can get the drift but somethings just not feeling right.

To drift like the pro's is there any set up and tuning involved or just practice practice practice ?

Getting the right set up for a car takes a lot of trial and error. If you don't know where to start, there is a good guide here.

good guide (:

i know my shocks are set up wrong afte reading that.
just wondering if i should still go fro softer shocks in the front on the TA-03 because the morot is mounted over the front bumper?

RE: Set-ups
 

you need stiffer shocks in the front

RE: Set-ups
 

ok,
sorry im such a noob
but with the added weight of the motor in the front the shocks should feel about the same when you push down on the car with your hands?

RE: Set-ups
 

this is backwords

you want soft all around, but the rear should be a tad stiffer then the front.

Soft front and harder rear will give the front tires bite and let the rear slide around. this will give you greater control.

Yeah that what i was thinking, but i think he is meaning because it is a TA-03f the front shocks should be slightly stiffer to accomadate for the front mounted motor?

anyway i think i will set it up with soft shocks all round because Ive noticed that with soft shocks on the front you can brake hard and spin the car around easily

RE: Set-ups
 

yeah its about feel, play around and see what ya like best. what works for me , might not work for you

RE: Set-ups
 

I could not have said that better myself.

RE: Set-ups
 

I got a ta-03 in a trade and realized everytime hit the throttle the front of the car was bouncing all over the place, what motor you using has alot to do with it as well

RE: Set-ups
 

it shouldnt bounce too much with the shocks set up right?

what do you mean it matters what motor you use?
power? weight?
