Parts started showing up over the last few days and I could use some input for a few things I can't decide. The goal is to gain some performance out of my race Typhon by dropping the cg and adding limitless aero, even though my instincts (as a mechanical engineer) tell me the wings won't make a tangible difference at low speeds. The biggest area the car struggles is front end grip and really needs less caster.
Current setup:
-TLRT Typhon
-Limitless shocks and HR towers. 27lb/in springs and 8 hole tapered pistons.
-hobbywing xr8 g2s and 1900kv motor
-powerhobby 54/100 grippers
-diffs: 5k/5k/3k
-track: smooth asphalt parking lot that's pretty small.
New parts:
-king hobby carbon fiber chassis
-limitless aero
-proline axis body
-EMP spool
-GRP xm2 slicks
The plan is to use the Typhon chassis as a drill template to move the rear end to a 328mm wheelbase. I'm pretty sure I'll center the drivetrain but I can't make up my mind on the rest of the layout
-spool forward or rearward
-motor forward or rearward
-i kind of want to do saddle pack batteries but I already have normal 4sHV batteries.
-any ideas to decrease the caster beyond the minimum adjustment?
