Looks pretty good for a balanced setup. If you want to tune your chassis balance further, see where your motor and batteries are located. That's where most of the weight balance will be, and from there on you can estimate which parts of the car needs more / less weight. This all depends on how u want to tune the chassis balance, either heavier forward, centralised weight, or more weight at the back.

A brake setup also depends on the track layout too, and also type of tyres used. There are also heavier solid machined aluminium wheels coming soon from Tamiya.

how to balance car???letak dekat track asyik terbang je??lulz..

When does your machine flies off the track? Lane change? Jumps? At corners?
The easiest way to balance your machine is to see where does it flies off and how it flies off, and then you can study how to balance your machine.

Corner obviously..using standard setting only since i am still newbie

Pic please

Hi hello everyones I'm currently attach to AR Chasis and I got 1 more extra Chasis, but I cant find the correct Plate Terminal that suits AR Chasis, But found in the net this Sample Terminal Plate whether this suit my Chasis thanks in advance.

hi all, today i just bought Aero Thunder Shot, AR Chassis from Tamiya Underground, currently stock motor, plan to buy plasma or hyper dash 2 later on, but i need suggestion for accessories like roller, and other tune up part.

how much you buy it??

for the accesories...u prefer tamiya one or other brand one??

i prefer tamiya, i bought it RM55, plan to take thunder shot MK2, i think not my lvl yet for ms chassis

1) Plasma dash cannot be used in races/tournament (at least for TU races).

2) Motors that are allowed for official TU races are Mach Dash Pro [or below it] (double shaft) & Sprint Dash [or below it] (single shaft).

3) Again, if you plan to play in tamiya underground (practice/race), please do not use other brand items (parts).

4) There is no level difference in choosing chassis. All chassis have its own pros & cons, it is up to the racers to choose which is their preferred chassis. My opinion, you have to try all to know.

5) As for tuned up parts, should you need suggestion you can ask around at TU, ask the staff there or racers, should get you most answers that you want, but lately the parts is not yet stocked up. Better wait for the next restock to get your parts.

Current condition..
