High or low suspension?!

Recommendations on the perfect ride height?? (Grass and dirt terrain as well as street?)

For all 3, I have my stock Typhon S6 V5 set at max, 40 mm

I think there’s no real answer to your question. It’s all personal preference IMO. Depends on the rig, what kinda bashing you’re doing, and what feels right.

What Harriot said
in an ideal world for off-road you would aim for about 20-25% of travel as sag to allow for negative movement for rough terrain, if your just doing big jumps probably aim for as much travel as possible with shocks set in a more progressive position rather than linear, and for street as low as possible with shocks set linear and stiff as possible. hope this helps

Ya I'm really not bashing my radix 6s, just felt like it was waaaay too low, like sagging so I stiffened it up...I'm babying that car lol...typhon Is outta commission right now, same with the rustler. Big Rock I'm about to beat up...trying to sell the mini revo but still bashing it in the mean time...thanks for the info brother!

I miss understood your question, I thought you were asking for one ideal setting for all 3, street, dirt and grass (40 mm)

Before I thought it wasn't worth the effort/time I ran at 20 mm on the street and 40 mm for dirt and grass (I don't do speed runs)

At 40 mm I'm a little top heavy on the street, oh well, I've adjusted

Ya I do it all pretty much, I try to avoid high jumps (at least with the newer more expensive cars) just cuz I don't need the older car cars plus the newer ones outta commission lol. But ya my radix6 6s straight out of the box was like sagging, control was off so I stiffened that up...typhon is getting rebuilt at the moment but when I got it new, the control and stability was amazing! The big rock I just got seemed a bit loose as well so I stiffened those up too....when I do some speed runs this spring a d summer I'll loosen up the suspension, but for now they're all good!
