A great description of what changes do to a 1/8 off road buggy style pan chassis rc can be found in the Xray XB8 instruction manual. Pages 36-43. you can download that Right Here (Ziped PDF format)

What kind of track are you running it on? what don't you like about the handing right now?

- Start with 60wt in front and 50wt in the reaer shocks
- For the diffs go with 3k front 5k center 1k rear
-I use the stock springs... I think there fine... 13mm pre load in the rear... (I think) and 7 in the front (again not positive, ill look when i get home)
- 2 degree rear toe block

Thats should get you started... You can go to hotbodiesforum.com for a site dedicated to the LSP

you run -1 toe in George ? Why ?

cemeb4dk · (#14 (**permalink**))

Because I can, It seems make it in hold a straight line better thru the track. And I get a little more turn in

I asked Mich the same question about toe-out on his Revo but didn'y see an answer if there was one.

I recall reading/hearing that toe-out helps turning but sacrificed straight line stability at speed (making it twitchy). So if you're running tight twisty tracks I could see where toe-out is the way to go.

Is this what you have found through trials, George? Have you ever run with neutral or toe-in?
