Col,
I have Trakpower 3200 in my 501X. I use B44 battery posts, and the packs are held very securely. It also means that if I can run NIMH.
As far as setup goes, I have been working on it for a while, and have it nearly there.
Pre LIPO:
Front - blue AE springs, 35Wt oil, shocks on outside on tower
Rear - silver ae springs, 30wt oil, shocks outside on tower
Long wheelbase
minimum ackerman.
1 shim under front camberlink brace.
Post LIPO:
Front - blue ae springs, 45 wt oil, shocks one hole in from the outside on tower
Rear - silver ae springs - cut down, 40 wt oil, shocks on the inside of th tower
Short wheelbase
Std ackerman
no shims in camberlink braces
No additional weight
Some might think the thicker oil is a strange decision with the lighter car, however it calms down the lively back end, and the car is pretty much dialled now. But there's always room for improvement, so my next thing to try is th 0.5 extra toe in on the rear hubs (rayspeed).
