XRAY - Model racing cars

On the T4 I settled on 3,000cst weight oil for the diff which seemed to be pretty common choice.

For those running the T4 14, how have you found the diff oil compared to the T4? Should I start at my T4 setup of 3,000 or go back to the kit setup 1,000?

i haven't tested mine yet but it has 3000 in it,as thats what worked for me in the t4,no doubt ill experiment with it though this weekend

2K-3K is our initial setting for carpet.

5K is a good starting point for asphalt.[/quote]
alex,is this on high grip? as i mostly run low to medium grip[/quote]

For both low and high grip.[/quote]
thanks

Yes, it will for for the T3 as well.

Alex, your advice is invaluable. This applies to 17.5 blinky or modified motors only? Thanks in advance.

Why such thick rear diff oil on asphalt, what do you find this gives you?

Thanks

Don't get this T4 comes with 700cst yet most ran min of 2000cst

T4'14 comes with 1000cst in the kit yet it it is recommended to run a minimum of 2000cst

So why doesn't the kit come with 2000cst or 3000cst as std?

Hi Coastal,

we do recommend to use 1000cst. 1000 cst is the best starting oil in diff for low-medium traction where most of us drive. our team drivers run only on big races with over 100 participants where the the traction is high. For normal club level races, 1000cst is best option.

There are little setups posted with less than 2k oil for anything since the T3 12, so think there is a point, I only know 1 guy who was consistent locally will less but that was on foams on a 417
