Shock Positions... - 07-04-2007, 08:53 PM
My First real RC was a REVO...and I got an LSP now too. I want to kind of get the Suspension setup better...but I have NO idea what shock positions do...advice?

LSP lots of Khz, Werks .28 8 port.

Revo 2.5, TRX 3.3 Engine, Center Diff. Fast and Turns on a dime.

More inclined:

softer initial dampening
more progressive dampening
more lateral traction
makes the handling more forgiving
may be better on high-bite tracks, slows down the handling
makes it easier to drive

Less Inclined:

Harder dampening
less lateral traction
makes the car more responsive
usually better suited on technical tracks

So when you are saying 'Inclined' You are referring to the shocks 'laying down'?
