I found what I believe to be the best ever article on R/C suspension setup and tuning.
You may want to print it out and keep a copy in the “reading room”.
It’s more than just the average "try this" article. Theory and numbers along with action V/ reaction. I know Retread will have a field day with this one. Get out your calculator.

I like the setup grid at the end. Its an advanced article and will provide an education for those that study it.

Yep - excellent info...I suggest downloading his zipped version. You never know how long that site will be there.

Try it again...the link is intermittant...it didn't work about half the time I surfed through it. I closed the link and then reopened it and it downloaded just fine.

Excellent information...the guy must be a Mechanical or Aerospace Engineer with some good training in structural mechanics and fluid dynamics. I felt like i was back in school reading one of my textbooks...

Good information for all levels of intelligence...:D
