I'm new here and I'm after a bit of advice.....
the car -
(HPI) hot bodies lightning stadium 10
the car for what i want is spot on. fast off road and can take a good bashing.
the standard suspension seemed a bit soft so I've upgraded to some alloy piggyback oil shocks which allow full control over springs to be wound down to make them stiffer or fully open for full travel and the car feels sturdier already.
As I'm use to using on road electrics this is different being offroad.
what i need is some suspension advice such as
how stiff should i have them setup?
front stiffer than rear or vice versa ?
what oil to use front and rear same or different?
so far the mods I've done are....
hpi failsafe,
upgraded suspesion,
ordered my purple alloy 17mm hex kit,
new shell waiting to be painted
on the to do list is...
carbon fibre top plate mount
custom carbon fibre chasiss ??? (this might be a while away as alot of time to design and make)
new wheels
new tyres - any recommendations for grassy/dry loose mud???
2.4ghz transmitter/reciever
in the end uprate engine
are there any parts in general that people would recommend upgrading on an offroad buggy??????
i no thats a few questions but i hjust wana get the best out of it i can
hope someone can help and offer the advice i need.
