Default B44 setups

Anyone know where I can get some up-to-date setups for the B44? Indoors and outdoor (grass/astro) please?

Thanks

As far as I know......
Pidge's Reedy 4200's weigh about 270g (with wires), and his Rudebits brass weighs about 130g....so that area is about 400g.

There is so little difference between ESC's, motors and servos to make any significant difference so id aim for the back end of your car to have about 400g in weight around the cell area and then just stick your electrics in?

Thats what im doing...although im ever so slightly not as good as Pidge is

Also,
I noticed that all those setup sheets indicate running a diff up front, yet other posts ive seen on this forum say that people would never run fixed 4WD over a one-way due to handling?

Anyone? One-way or fixed for the UK (indoors and outdoors)

I always ran the diff, tried the one way a couple of times but didnt like it. Some people swear by them, others dont, I think its more of a personal preference thing although im prepared to be shot down

If you use a one-way, the NTC3 Heavy Duty one can be used. I think wezzer might have used a Yokomo one, and changed the bevel gear somehow. Best off checking with him Cris.

well thats saved me a job of hand writing one out, thanks

No front roll bar though and the front diff would be slightly tighter than the rear. Will try and work out what the ride height settings were properly over the weekend seeing as it's all professionally done

I think we should keep this thread for B44 setups as the other thread is mainly about the B4??
