I use all the mods you have shown on the 144001 for some time now, lowering the chassis with the droop screws is essential when doing speed runs. I set the arms horizontal with no droop, also going further with the fronts so as to lower the front of the chassis more than the rear of the chassis. Also look at taking out the toe out on the fronts & set more parallel for speed runs.

You should check the rebound of your shocks without the springs.
@Aarons14bugs3 жыл бұрын
What kind of rebound are we looking for? Sorry, I'm new to rc cars.
@WomackKP3 жыл бұрын
@@Aarons14bugs At least half the shaft should come out on it's own without the spring. The real key is to get the same amount of rebound on each shock. A perfect build would allow you to depress the shaft all the way with the last quarter inch being hard to push in. At the same time the shaft should full extend on it's own without the spring very slowly. It takes time to get shock building down perfectly. Work at getting half rebound first and practice until you get more perfect builds.

Thanks for the video. I noticed the suspension doesn't rebound anymore in your video. The car dampens but just stays low. Also a thought but when you filled your shocks with oil, shouldn't you try to get any trapped air out before you tighten the cap on? I'm a newb so your thoughts on this appreciated.
@beyondRC3 жыл бұрын
never had any issues. Cheers :)
@Commander_ZiN Жыл бұрын
He should. Quadify rc shows how to do it. Take of the springs first, with the cap not fully done up you can bleed off the excess, then check there's no preload or that the shocks stay fully compressed. I never had any issues out of the box, doesn't mean it's not correct. All shocks feel fine, if I take of all the springs, only one will fully compress without extra force.

@The_RC_Dude3 жыл бұрын
Isn't 800cSt shock oil a bit too thick though? 800cSt = 60wt, I know that QuadIfyRc used 60wt, but I'm asking on Reddit and most people agree that 60wt is too heavy, one person said the max I should go is 50wt. The stock oil is around 30-40wt, I'm probably going for 45wt. Doesn't 60wt make the car squat down lower, and make the rebound (how fast the shock springs back) slower?
@beyondRC3 жыл бұрын
60wt helps to account for the extra weight at the back as the big heavy brushed motor makes the car rear heavy and sometimes bottom out on jumps. People have many different opinions on what's right just do what's right for you man. 60wt worked just fine for me and my needs 👍👍
@The_RC_Dude3 жыл бұрын
@beyondRC Ok, thanks. I'm probably going with 35-45wt shock oil, about the same or just a little bit thicker than stock.

This is a common problem on these and i think on the new 124019's they have used some sort of thermal pad/paste which helps transfer heat to the aluminum chassis to help dissipate heat. But on the 144001 has always been a known issue. I cant say i have a fix as not long after getting mine i converted to brushless and never looked back. Have covered the conversion on my channel so be sure to check that out.

if anything stick with plastic, its cheaper less hassle and lighter. The metal upgrades look great but arent that effective. Plastic can stretch a little whereas metal can't. Cheers

Stick with plastic!!! More durable. Cheap aluminum bends while plastic bounces back a bit. Also plastic is much lighter which makes handling and runtime better. In some spots, metal is good (chassis, shock towers, maybe c hubs, a arm holders etc) but all metal is bad!
