Re: Kyosho MP9 Setups
You dooo realize that Kendall runs some wacked up setups compared to most people, because he has a very unique driving style...
Here is a good base setup we run...
I have re-photoshopped the old setup sheet and made one of my own with more info on it.. Enjoy.

Re: Kyosho MP9 Setups
sure now you tell me, lol. I'm running pretty close to that, made a few tweeks of my own, of course i ran out of or didn't have most of the oil i needed. Ben you'll have ot make some suggestions on what to change, I've only run this car a couple of races and still have a lot to learn.
Re: Kyosho MP9 Setups
On the setup, I listed the changes I make. 128 and 138 pistons are pretty much standard on most the pro setups. Most the time they play with shock oils depending on ambient temps and depending on what you want the car to do... Does it fly threw the air flat? does it slightly buck up in the back like i like it to? does it point towards teh dam sky off the jumps? How high do I need to make it fly with the throttle input being given..
Most changes from track to track are made in the rear end.. Mostly to make it rotate more through the turns, and then rear traction/stability issues.
Most tracks call for 5-5-3 difs... But I have a spare front one with 7k in it for more open tracks where you can get away with the front end pulling you around the turns. 5-5-3 will be a good for the dome with the slower turns/ uneven-off camber turns.
I am starting with that EXACT setup josh.
What car do you have josh? TKI or SE edition? If TKI... Long or Medium rear shock setup?

Re: Kyosho MP9 Setups
tki edition, long shocks. I did put 5/5/3 for diff oils, I thought that would be a good starting point.
