bladder

Some residual shock fluid may appear from

your first few runs around the shock cap as a result of bleeding.

!

Bladder Installation

As you install the shock cap with the bladder, it will force out any extra fluid. If you install the cap with the shaft fully extended, you are running FULL REBOUND.

To run less rebound, unthread the cap 1-2 turns and compress the shaft to the desired position and re-tighten the cap with the shaft compressed.Start with no rebound.

32:: Chassis Tips

:: Front End Tips

Gearing:Follow your motor manufacturer’s recommendations for gearing options.

Gear Mesh:To correctly set your gear mesh, follow the steps below:1. Loosen the set screw on the motor’s pinion gear. The set screw can be accessed through the slot on the side of the motor mount slide, opposite the spur gear. Slide the pinion on the motor shaft until the gear face of the pinion is entirely aligned with the gear face of the spur gear (see diagram). Tighten the set screw while ensuring it is aligned with the flat face on the motor shaft.

2. Loosen the two motor screws until the motor is able to move freely. Slide the motor as far as it can go towards the spur gear, ensuring that the teeth of the pinion and the spur gear are interlocking. Back the motor off a tiny bit (approximately 0.5 mm), and tighten the screws that lock the motor in place. Proper gear mesh has been achieved when the teeth are meshing closely, but the gears still have a small amount of play between them. If you hold one gear, you should be able to rock the other gear back and forth a small amount. If there is not “free play”, your gear mesh is too tight and you should back off the motor a little farther.

Differential Fluid:Team Associated includes a complete bottle of 5,000cst diff oil. You can also provide your own oil and try one of the optional setups.Standard differential fluid setup: Front = 5,000cst; Center = 5,000cst; Rear = 5,000cst.Optional diff setup 1 (high grip track): Front = 5,000cst; Center = 10,000cst; Rear = 5,000cst.

Center Differential: Use the standard setup for most cases. Some racers will try thicker oil (7,000-10,000cst) when greater acceleration is needed. This is typically done on very smooth tracks since thicker fluid can reduce handling in bumpy conditions.

Front Differential: Use the standard setup for most cases. Try 7,000cst to 10,000cst to get less low speed steering and better acceleration out of turns.

Kickup Bushing:Generally more kick-up will provide better handling in the bumps and have better straight line acceleration.Less kick-up will provide more all around steering and have a more aggressive feel.

Caster:The standard caster block insert setup is for 16 degrees. The standard inboard kick-up is 9 degrees (2-dot up insert in A-plate). You can reduce the caster using 14 degree inserts (also move both upper cone washers in front of the ball joint) for smoother steering. Changing to 18 degree inserts (also move both upper cone washers behind the ball joint) will typically provide more steering on power but reduce handling in bumpy conditions.

Front Upper Pivot Insert:The standard setup is to use 2-dot up in the tower and 1-dot in the top plate. It is recommended to maintain a 1 dot gap (1mm per dot) front to rear when using 2-dot up in the A-Plate. Reducing the A-Plate insert to 1-dot allows the use of same dot number insert in both tower and top plate. Going up to 3-dot up in the tower will give more turn in, but less steering on power/exit. Going down (1-dot, 2-dot down) will reduce turn in, but give more steering on exit.

Front Camber Link-Outer:The standard short location will work the best for most tracks. Going to the long front link will give you more steering, but can make the car less predictable in bumps and exiting turns.

:: Rear End TipsRear Differential: Start with the standard setup. For expert drivers, the most popular setting is 3,000 cst. The thicker 5,000cst kit oil will rotate less in the turns and accelerate straight on power. The thinner oil (2,000 or 3,000cst) will give more low speed traction.

Anti-squat: Anti-squat denotes the angel of the rear inner hinge pin relative to the ground. This setting is adjusted by changing the insert bushing in the C-Plate. The kit setting is 2 degrees (2-dot down) but you change to 1 degree (3-dot down). Typically less anti-squat lets the suspension work more over the bumps, but it will sacrifice the ability to square up on power.

Rear Camber Link Length & Vertical Adjustment:You can change the length of the camber link on the hub or tower as well as adjust the vertical location on the tower. A longer link will give the feeling of the most grip, but it will not be as responsive to square up on throttle, and might get loose if driven hard. This can easily be corrected by running the shorter link on the hub, but it will sacrifice some forward grip.

Changing to a higher location on the tower will be a smaller adjustment than changing the length of the upper link. Going up on the tower location has a similar effect as a longer camber link, but not as drastic. For example, if you change to the short rear link on the hub and you need to gain more forward grip, try raising the link up on the tower. New additional lower holes should be used when running the optional hinge pin hole in the rear hub carrier.

Rear Hub Hinge Pin Height:The upper hole gives more rear grip on turn in, and good forward traction, but it might have difficulty squaring up out of turns. The lower hinge pin hole in the hub will be more responsive on throttle, and give more side grip in the turns.

Rear Hub Spacing:You have 3 options for rear hub spacing, FWD, MIDDLE, & BACK. The kit setting provides a good balance of rear traction and steering, and will be used most often. Moving the hubs FWD will give more rear traction for low grip tracks. You can use the hubs BACK on high grip tracks for more on-power steering. Also, you can replace the included shims to get intermediate settings.

Rear Camber:A good starting camber setting is –2 degrees. Use the included #1719 camber gauge to set your camber. Adding a small amount of positive camber, where the top of the tire is leaning out, will tend to improve straight-line acceleration on loose tracks.

Rear Ride Height:The rear ride height setting you should use most often is 29mm of gap between the chassis bottom and ground. Check the ride height with the FT Ride Height Gauge (#1449) by lifting up the entire vehicle about 8-12 inches off the bench and drop it. After the suspension “settles” into place, then raise or lower the ride height with the shock clips as necessary and recheck.

Rear Arm Shock Location:Inside on the arm will give less entry steering, accelerates better straightline through bumps, but may lack side bite. Outside on the arm will be less grip, more steering, but will be more predictable when it breaks traction.

:: Front End Tips (cont.)Front Camber Angle:A good starting camber setting is –2 degrees. Positive camber, where the top of the tire is leaning out, is typically not recommended.

Front Toe-In:Zero degree toe-in (tires pointing straight forward) is a good starting setting. You can increase turn in by adding 1-2 degrees of toe-out (front of tires point slightly out). Front toe - in is not a typical tuning adjustment used by the Team.

Front Ride Height:The front ride height setting you should use most often is with 29mm of gap between the chassis bottom and the ground. Check the ride height with the FT Ride Height Gauge (#1449) by lifting up the entire vehicle about 8-12 inches off the bench and drop it. After the suspension “settles” into place, then raise or lower the ride height with the shock clips as necessary and recheck.

Front Arm Shock Location:Inside on the arm will give a more responsive front end. Outside on the arm will be less responsive steering, but will be more predictable through bumps.

34:: Droop Settings (Buggy shown but applicable for all vehicles)

Step 1: With only the bottom of the shocks attatched, the droop screws raised all the way, and the chassis above your working surface so the arms are at full extension, you should be able to easily slide the top of your shock over the standoff screw, while leaving the shock at full extension. If the mounting hole of the shock cap is above or below the standoff screw, adjust the droop screw accordingly. Repeat for all corners of your vehicle. Measure from the center of the standoff screw to the center of the shock riser button to get your FULL DROOP setting.The front shocks should be 102mm, while the rear shocks should be 120mm.

Note: Rear hub spacing is not recommended with RTR dog bones. For more adjustability, use CVA’s in place of dog bones.

Step 2: Finish installing the shock to the standoff. Set your vehicle to your desired droop setting. To increase your droop turn the droop screw (from the top) counter-clockwise (loosen), turn the droop screw (from the top) clockwise (tighten) to decrease your droop. Remember, never back the screw out beyond full droop or you could risk damage to your vehicle.

Step 3: Measure from the center of the shock standoff screw to the center of the shock riser button to get your final droop setting. The front shocks should both be set at the same lenght, as should the rearshocks. * The normal droop setting is between 0-5mm from the FULL DROOP measurement.

Front Droop: Increasing front droop (loosen droop screws) will increase off-throttle steering. It also allows the front end to lift more, giving more rear grip and less front grip on-power. Remember to never loosen the screws beyond the FULL DROOP setting. Decreasing front droop (tighten droop screws) yields more on-power steering and quicker response at the expense of some stability in bumpy sections. It will also give less off-throttle steering.

Rear Droop: Increasing rear droop (loosen droop screws) will increase traction in bumpy sections, but will reduce high-speed stability. Remember to never loosen the screws beyond the FULL DROOP setting. Decreasing rear droop (tighten droop screws) will increase stability in high speed sections, but will reduce stability in bumpy sections.

Setup Sheets:Most often the best way to get your car handling right is to go to our website www.rc10.com and click on the “Setup Sheets” link, then the link to your vehicle, then search for your vehicle. Our team of professional drivers help develop these setups at National events. Also, most drivers have a “base” setup that they use as a starting point for ev-ery event. Try running some of our base setups OR look for track conditions and tires that are similar to your local track and mimic that setup. Remember, each adjustment has a purpose, so copy everything from the setup sheet and then make adjustments based on the recommendations in here at http://www.rc10.com/rc/tuning.
