hi all, I have an ansmann racing virus, and was wondering how to adjust the ride height, as it seems to be really low at the moment, any help would be appreciated thanks:)
 
thanks, thats cool

also how can I stop flipping in tight bends, as a beginner i am maybe taking the corner a little to quick, I think I have read somewhere that the virus is a clone of the hyper 7, so would anyone suggest I invets in anti roll bars? and are they much kop?
 
Anti Rol Bars (ARB's) help keep the vehicle "Flatter" in corners and aid cornering quite a lot. (The same in 1:1 scale vehicles) and yes, they are much "Kop" for the very reason that they keep the vehicle flatter in turns as stated previously.

ARB's are only a part of helping towards not flipping whilst trurning. Your speed, the terrain your running on, the setup of the vehicle and your tyres all play a part in a vehicle flipping.

If your tyres have a part of the grip at the edge of the trye, try trimming off every other "Nub", if that doesn't help try trimming of the "nubs you didnt trim. If that Still doesn't help, try trimming the INSIDE of the tyre as you tried on the outside.

I did this and it helped enoprmously.

If you look at the below picture you will see what i mean about the "Nubs" and the trimming.

The tyre on the left is untouched, whilst the tyre on the right has been "Trimmed".

Hoping this helps.

you can get little spacers for them to higher the buggy or just get new springs and shocks. mine was the same but i used spacer clips.
