this is from a uk forum,
Q-Anyone have any decent set up sheets that i can use on my tc4, running T27's indoors on carpet please?..

need all the help i can get i think! lol

A-i will give you my cs22 one...might aswell try it with t27s

here goes

front:
1 deg camber
1 deg toe in
0 deg castor block
2 tab shim under O block
0 shims under triangle block
camber link in 2nd hole from centre (on chassis brace) with 1 shim
wheelbase is standard
#2 piston
35wt oil
gold spring
5mm ride height
ball diff set to tight
shock positions : 2nd hole out from centre on tower, outer hole on wishbone
droop - 4

rear:
1 deg camber
2.5 deg toe in (you will need to get the 2.5 deg rear toe block though)
no shims under either suspension block (square and X)
camber link on chassis brace : inner hole with 2 shims
camber link on hub : standard (inner i think it is)
standard wheelbase
#2 piston
30wt oil
blue spring
5.5mm ride height
shock positions : tower - 2nd from outside
wishbone - inner
droop - 3

body - stratus3

tyres - cs22 premounts (dished wheels)
additive - LRP (although you sid you can't use it)

motor - EA ROAR (27t)
gearing - 72/23
brush - reedy 767
springs - purple (+ve and -ve)
batteries in foward position

that got me TQ and win so can't be that bad (would of put me around 5thish in 19t A to smile.gif )

if you find that it flips (not rolls but flips) over in the corners then lenghten the front camber link or take the shim out

hope it helps.
