| Post subject: | My XRAY T2 009 EU - Issues on CG (Help !!!) |
Hi, I just finished setting up my Xray T2 009 EU, Rubber on asphalt with the Hudy tools. I noticed that when I try to balance it; by default the part that "wins" is the one that has on it's side: Tekin RS PRO, Tekin 6.5T, Spektrum SRT3300T, Futaba Servo Other side has IP 3800 35C 2S lipo. I have to add 144 grams of lead on the lipo side to get an average balacing. This is what I've come too, but I was told that : - I should go for a Hyperdrive lipo plate to lower the CG and make it better - the velcro under the battery strap is causing the strap to bow when I tighten down the thumb screw...that can lead to chassis tweak and make the car a nightmare to set up Any advises from experts ? Thanks, Cédric |

My first thought would be to replace the strap with a quality fibre-tape like the Hudy tape...this will hold the battery down securely, but will also help hold the battery in positions so that it can't slide towards or away from the belt as well. Any time you need to 'force' something (like putting so much tension on the strap that it bows) it should provide an indication that something is not quite right. Some of the other local racers are using the battery strap with LiPo packs, but they are shimming the battery strap up higher so it doesn't need to be forced. |

http://img12.imageshack.us/gal.php?g=wg ... ray001.jpg I'm hoping this works, it should show the screws on the back side that keeps the lipos from going into the belts. You can also see the stock battery "L" parts that have been ground back and re-drilled to keep the back from sliding out. You can also see the extra spacers under the battery hold down clamp to take the pressure off the strap. |
