8ight T 2.0e Build

[lucias]

I am a total newb but for what it's worth I am running 15/46 with a 1700kv on 5s.. I have been playing with the truck a lot. I couldn't get it to turn on power with our new track setup.. which is a pretty small track and now it is more of a technical and tight with short turns, compared to a supercross style track.. I have mad some progress I changed the ackerman to short and it made a world of a difference. I wish I had done this first.. I also put the big sway bar in the front and rear but I think I am going to take out the rear put the one that cam on it back in, since it has to much steering now.. I also put the purple heavy springs in the rear and the next heaviest grey springs in the front..

Have you guys played with shock setup at all? I change the pistons and oil but I am not sure it helped my cause.. I think the front is better I have 35wt 54 pistons and in the rear I have 35wt 55pistons.. I think I am going to go back to 56 pistons in the rear and maybe try a lighter weight oil.. if the piston change isn't enough..

Be sure to check your shock ends on your truck before you take it out.. I had 2 come off the first 2 times I took the truck out..
