All the weight is at the front of the car so it will always tend to nose off jumps.
You have to control the car with the throttle, that's what i'v found anyway.

Have you added any weight Chris, I can balance it out with throttle control over the fast jumps however jumps or double table tops where I have to throttle back, it noses really bad... Just wanted to see if I can make it any better balance wise

It hard to say it's just weight. I had my 410 since 09', and played with many,many setups. Pistons,springs and ride ht. all come to play here. If the ride ht. is to low in the rear or not enough pack, then the rear will buck up as you are explaining. It could also be the opposite. To hard it won't absorb the impact. Chances are it's to soft. What pistion/oil/spring and ride Ht.?

I run the Durango 30g rear weight, but it's not to help it jump.
It's part of my setup. Come, and have a chat next time your racing, and I'll see if I can do anything to help.

I run the brass weight at the back and 70gms lead hammered flat and taped under the battery and it jumps really level, have done this now for the last year, very noticeable if i have to run a different battery pack.

Running the Durango undergearbox/skid plate weight and the rear brace weights, flat as a very flat thing in the air
High speed, low speed, doubles.......... unless i crash, then all bets are off. |
