Senton More downforce for On Road

[totesmgoats]

Hello friends, I’m looking for a new body for my Senton to drive it on road. I noticed the front wheels tend to lift quite a bit so I wonder if anyone has suggestions for bodies that have more downforce.

Or any mods that help with downforce. I have the stock suspension on the lowest ride height already. Just curious to see if anyone has tried anything similiar

Typhon body will cause less parachuting.

Will a typhon body mount directly to the existing body posts? How does the wing attach to the body?

No, they will not. But the posts are only a couple of bucks at jenny's. I would also get the body at https://jennysrc.com/

You used that body but you 3d printed your own shock towers right?

Yep to get it lower I had to chop the towers down. You can always cut the body and allow the towers to poke thru.

Having them poke through makes me cringe. It looks SO UGLY IMO

Could you vent the back of the shell to help with the parachuting? I think the Mojave is vented for that reason.

Senton 6s body will get ya into the 60s before liftoff

Set the front ride height lower than the rear, so when the front starts to lift, the rear pushes it back down.

I notched my 3s body similar to the 6s and it still took off like a space-X rocket. vented even more in the rear, no dice. I would try and change bodies to a lower profile setup.
