Suspention settings?

[KMN]

Mainly for general bashing, on grass and dirt and rocks mainly...

I just want to know how to set the brick up to NOT dive when it's in the air. Also, when i hit a little jump or obstacle(Like concrete going to grass, or a small curb...) since the back is much stiffer than the front, it nose-dive's like a MOMO!!! To the tune of a nice front flip.

Anyways... suggestions are always welcome.

Nothings worse than taking a swan dive off a 5 foot jump, specially when you see a chassis snap in half for the first time.. Just like my friends nitro stampede. LOL

Only way to fix that problem is trial and error really. For my RC10GT, the way I got it to work was the spoiler in the back, a tight front suspension, and a rather loose rear. Thought the problem after that was bottoming out off big air lol. But I could take any set of smaller triples at the track

Heres the basics: The more vertical your shocks are, the more it will soak up huge landings and drop-off's. The more horizontal your shocks are, the more traction the wheels will have, but it will be succieptable to more damage from hard landings. If you dont know...horizontal means this _ and vertical means this |

Cool...

I think I found it just by messing around with it...

The ole Brick soaked up about 12 feet of air offa plywood ramp, and it didnt nose dive...

Amazing.

I bought some DuraTrash one's, aluminum and they work quite well...

Easily adjustable, and durable, I have'nt bent one yet....
