Post subject: | Front End Droop and How to Keep the Front End From Rising |
On just about every setup I see posted, people are running max droop in the front and the rear. I run max on the rear too. But when I run max droop in the front, my buggy rises a lot when I get on the throttle and this hurts the steering. All the rising and falling in the front also makes it feel lazy. I'd like to run more front droop so that I can handle a rutty track better. What do you guys think are the best ways to keep the front end from rising so much when on power? I also noticed in the XRAY instruction manual it says that more droop gives you more on power steering and less droop gives you less on power steering. Isn't that backwards? |

I always limit the droop, both front and rear. In the rear I only limit it enough to prevent the shock piston from bottoming out in the body. In the front I usually run a couple turns in and adjust from there. |

I just checked mine and I actually have it setup almost exactly like you say yours is. So I guess I'm doing something right. ![]() What do you think about what the manual says about droop? |

are the conical pistons only useful on bumpy tracks or are they also useful on flat EU-style tracks? I am also hard on throttle and I was wondering if they would help. The track I am runnng at is EU-style. Not very bumpy with small to medium jumps. |
