Ordered my EB410. This is the thread I'll be asking setup questions and documenting my build progress.
The track I'm racing at is outdoor, primarily dirt. There may be some clay in there, but the material is sunbaked and pretty hard and dusty. Relatively smooth, though. They pretty much run open everything, so I haven't selected a motor just yet. I have an older setup with only a few runs on it, Tekin RS and an Orion brushless, but I don't recall the turns or kv of it. I'll have to get it out of the vehicle it's in to see, but I plan on using that for the time being just to save some of the up-front money. Same with the servo. I know it's a plenty capable servo, but I don't remember the specifics.
This is what I'm using as a baseline set up, but I'm open to any modifications people think I should make. http://site.petitrc.com/setup/tekno/setupeb410/EB410_BrianJames_Rome20180610/
First question I have is regarding recommended tires. From what I've read, it sounds like a good baseline is either Proline Holeshots (m3) or Jconcept Double Dees (blue), with one recommendation of AKA Impacts or Gridirons. Any other recommendations or suggestions. That information I found was a bit old, so something may have come out that's way better.
Other question, that I may just be overlooking while reading. What springs and sway bars come with the base kit? It's probably listed on the website, but my eyes are just flipping past.
