B44.3 need set up advice please

[matt76]

Hi guys

I'm new to the B44.3 and can seem to find a good set up for high grip astro. (Bury metro)

At the moment I seem to be getting loads of grip roll all over the track.

Any advice on shock settings like, which springs, oil, position, rebound, ride hight ?

Any advice appreciate

Matt

Thanks mate.

Anyone else out there in the world of Team Associated got any setup tips they'd like to share, tried searching online but all setup seem to be on clay or carpet, noticed a big difference in information available from racing kyosho or Durango.
Any help appreciated,

Cheers Matt

What tyres are you using now ?

[matt76]

Schumacher Mini Spikes front and rear, with the outside row cut off, or cut staggers yellow up front.

Hi Mick

I've picked the car up second hand so I'm not sure exactly what oil is in the shocks or diffs at the mo, I was just looking for a decent tried and tested setup for astro so I could buy the correct oil and springs ect and copy it. Ha

I've got the turn-buckles on the shortest setting and about -1 camber, blue front springs and black rear, about 20mm ride height all round, shocks are on the outside hole on the arms and inside holes on the shock towers

cheers

Mike / Ed,

Thanks a lot, good advice there, gives me a good starting point

I'll get some oils on order now

Hi guys

Another quick question if I may

How much rebound (if any) do you have when setting up your shock Pistons, again to race on high grip bumpy astro ?

Cheers

Yep
Equally weighted front and rear side to side it feels better!
It was dialled at the weekend, 2nd meeting with the car also and just didnt have enough time before hand to see what its limits were so had to settle for Q3.
