RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

Well I use the same brakes.

I just ran it for like 5 mins on the road.!!

Braking on demand is all I can say.

Just adjusted my rear linkages so only my front wheels lock up and my rear's dont.

Tired it at full force, OMG, Even with all the shock spacers, chassis scrapes :D

Now this thing can handle!!!!

Im Offically up and running :D

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

BTW Guys

I need some advice on Shock Oil

What do you recommend

My Options are

20 , 25 , 30 , 35 , 40 , 45 and 80

Thanks :D

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

I run 50 front and 40 or 45 rear

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

I was thinking 35 or 40 up front, and 45 at the rear.

The stock oil feels a bit ' thick '

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

I did 40 front and 45 in the rear.

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

Couldn't help you with stock oil as I got the pro kit. Shocks didn't come assemblied. Nothing did.

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

NWSLSINK, you know you have your center diff top plate on wrong? You have to turn it 180 degrees.

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

40 front, 45 rear it is :D

If that dosent work ill lighten up the front a bit.

Thanks :D

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

.!?

I found stiffer springs o_O

I tried the springs off my Nitrage, which are around 10% to 15% stiffer and they fit like a dream.!!!

Too bad they dont fit the back, but the front's are exact matches!!! :D

Absoloute great day for my Hyper, it got new brakes, new shock oils and springs :D

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

Alright, just did all my pre run checks, off to the track.

Just gotta pick up 2 gallons of Nitro and im set :D

Ill try and get some action shots up by the evening.

Boy, this thing is gonna rip.!

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

how did the car preform ?

what fuel you running?

i found what my steering proball was . my servo saver was to loose, ow well , easy fix ....... shame i had to cook a good servo befour i reliased.

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

It ran like a dream.!!!

What a differience the brakes are now.!! They flipped my truck more than once while turning.

Around 5 hours in, I had a head on colision with a Revo and broke my right steering knuckle and C hub. All fixed.

I was running Sidewinders 25% Race Fuel.

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

stupid revos always running head on into things.. grrrr

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

Also I am going to get the dynamite pro throttle/brake linkages - Is there a certain model I need to get?

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

@ droid

Its a personal choice, I personally drilled some holes, but once summer arrives, will definately be cutting the entire wind screen out, just helps air circulation. I rather have my engine run a bit cold than hot.

About the linkages, I have no idea, sorry, im using the stock linkages and they work fine for me.

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

No just get the pro linkage, it comes with all the adapters spines for all the servo configs.

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

Does it make a differience, if yes, Ill get one too.

BTW anyone know where I could get a hold of Pro Shock Towers ( Will the one off the Hyper 8 work, I dont think so), thats all I have left to turn my truck into a Pro..

Thanks..

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

the hyper 7 shocks fit.

awesome day of racing today for the st, at least when i had it on all fours. was in 5th in the b-main and my rear bevel gear "appears" to have stripped. i haven't taken it apart yet to investigate. the hole shots were digging in pretty good to do that. that and the sts was running very pure with the byron's gen 2 fuel, love that stuff.

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

Good hearing stories about good racing. Keep us updated on the bevel gear. That doesn't sound good if you stripped it. Was cold here in the northeast and got another tank in of breakin. Only 4 1/2 more tanks.

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

it was my fault, the set screw had come loose the race before and i set it in there 1/2 way so there was a lot of play in it. i did the best i could with 20 minutes before the main and it didn't take long either, i think it blew on the second lap of a 15 minute b main. i have some more.

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

Got it. I feel alittle better knowing it's not an engineering defect :).

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

Guys i just took my ST Pro to the track for the first time yesterday, WOW i have never experienced anything that handles like this baby. But for me on thing is clear the brakes are crap, i definatly need better performing brakes, please give me your comments on which brakes would be the best for this truggy?

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

Go 1 page back.

Everything you need to know about the brakes with pics...

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

gonna try to go out to a track for an hour after school tomarrow , i really want to try this st out

after

adjusting my servo saver , re oiling the diffs and shocks, puttin 2 ace servos in and putting a new set of hoboa tri's on my st pro i think all my problems with steering and braking should be solved

i also did a complete set up with toe in etc and did a lot of trial and error but i am happy with the end result.

Pictures to be posted tomarrow hopefully with some action pics .

questions to all [8D]

What diff oils and shock oils are you using ?

What engine and pipe set are you using ?

what servos for throttle / brake are you using ?

RE: the hyper st PRO thread!
 

In my ST Pro is have diff oils at 7,7,3 and shocks frt50wt and rr40wt, this is very much a standard setup with no real surprises but it works at my local track. My engine and pipe for racing is a RB TM928 with a 2045Pipe and a 192P manifold.
