This is something I would like to compare, but just due to using the equipment out of my other car for this one. Might not happen. However, on kit setup, the new car was about .1 tenth quicker on fast lap, and about .2 tenths quicker on top 15 average over a 5min run. Definitely right off the bat, was quicker. And with some current setup changes and changing it more for me, it's gotten slightly quicker than that. It's been awesome so far!
Gday Enzo, great vid on the 6.4d. I usually build my own cars but just had my 6.4d (my first buggy in 22yrs) built for me. Any chance you could do a video on adjusting the diff and slipper? Im not finding the instructions completely clear on that once it is all assembled. Great channel man👍
Any update for 2023? The alum bellcranks is not necessary? 😊 just got the 6.4 about a month ago..upgraded alum diff cover, cross pins and wing brace/buttons ..I run on carpet..
Hi Enzo , really enjoy your videos , I was wondering if you would be able to do an updated video about the muchmoore fleta pro v2 esc settings since the updated firmware added features . Would be nice to know your settings for 2wd and 4wd mod Thanks keep up the good work
Thank you! It's a good idea! I have a list of some topics I wanted to cover in a few future videos, so I will add this one down. Stay tuned and thanks for watching.
Good question. I think it all comes down to driving style and track. When running the 73mm rear end, with wide pivot setups, I normally found that the car rotated a little more off power, and on exit also seemed to carry more on power steering.On flowing, bigger tracks the 73mm rear end for ME, felt that it lacked a little stability, I normally prefer a car with a lot of steering, but the rear is planted and stable, vs some others like the rear to feel lighter more reactive to wheel inputs. With the 75mm setup, with a narrow pivot, I felt that the car is more stable on exit and off power, probably carry a little more overall corner speed due to being able to hold more speed vs the narrower 73mm setup. Again all of this goes on driving style, grip levels and track. I would say if you're on a technical or smaller track, the 73mm setup will probably favor that condition. If you are on a bigger track, more open and high speed, maybe similar to a Hobby Action, Ohio Rc Factory or tracks that are relatively open, I think you'll like the 75mm setup. Our track is mix between open and fast and also technical in some spots, but I prefer the 75mm setup for ME. Hope this helps! :)
@@TheRcworld101 What are the part #'s for the C & D blocks you are using with the 75mm arms? Didn't catch it being mentioned in the video and just want to be sure before I consider purchasing. Thank you.
I want to think that most of the setup should transfer over. Just need to make a few accommodations for the new shocks, and newer parts. One of our locals recently went from a B6.1 to a B6.4, minor setup changes from his base setup sheet and was pretty close in feel on the track!
I would say if I ran 17.5t stock buggy I would have a cut out for my motor fan. But in mod, heat is never really a big issue unless you run carpet or turf. But for clay, they get warm, but never danger levels when running off-road clay.
Hey! LP lipos in 2wd are very dependent on 1. Driving Style & 2. Class you are running. For the most part in 2wd Mod Buggy, it's always been favorable to have a heavier car, in the 1550-1570 range, it helps keep the cars calm and somewhat grounded with all the power they have, and with setup changes you can wake them up and make them more aggressive. In stock you always want to be as close to the ROAR/EFRA/BRCA minimum weight rule, to have the best acceleration and use of power, since being confined to a spec motor. I think if you run modified, you can run a LP lipo, and add battery wights under the lipo to bring weight up, and you can also compare running a normal 4500-5000mah, with little to no weight, and compare the differences in feedback and driving. In stock, you normally want as much runtime and longevity as possible to make sure the punch and drop off is minimal. But compare both if you run stock! Hope this helped :)
@@TheRcworld101 Awesome feedback! I run stock and plan on doing some testing between the two to see what I prefer. I've been running the LP battery since I started racing 10 months ago.
@@newo12 It can be a mixture of things, from roll centers, camber, shock package, ride height. Try resetting or going on the AE website, to see what might best suit your track conditions, and try one of the posted setups and adjust from there!
Need help , when I built car , im having a problem with tje bulk head , it moves up and down . The top screws won't tighten down . I think the bulkhead striped out.
Possibly try taking everything back apart and start over. Maybe you looked over a step. If that doesn't work, I suggest bringing the kit to your local track to have someone experienced, go over the car. Hope this helped.
Had a question for you , how do I get more side bite on the b6.4d ? It's kit set up , but I have 1mm drilled pistons in fro t and rear . 1.7 and 1.8 hole , 32.5 shock oil all around . It has a ton of steering but want tje backend a little more stable . I'm med to high bite clay . Just curious what to do
The layback transmission, uses the smaller idler gear and also the top cover that covers the ball diff, has layback stamped on the inside of the mold. The bigger idler gear will only fit in one of the two gearboxes too. So the one that does accept the bigger idler gear and is not stamped "Layback" will be your laydown one. Hope this helps!
Thanks so much for posting this video, I really appreciate it.
Thanks for the update video.
Would be good to compare how the new car goes against the old one, on the track.

BRATS BRO!! Hope to see ya soon boss!
Great video. I'm curious about that car stand. Who makes it? Where can I get it?
That's a Jconcepts car stand. Should still be available on concepts.net
What wheels and tires are those

Great video! Do you use the front hinge pin brace when you use the aluminum bulkhead?
Yes, regardless of using the plastic or FT Aluminium bulkhead, I'll always use that brace.
Thank you!
So whats the difference running the stock rear arm set up compared to the b6.3 rear end

I just barely got my original b6 performing how I like it.

@@TheRcworld101 I’m in no rush to upgrade. Might just wait for the b7
Would it not be a good idea to cut a hole where the motor is for cooling?
I would say if I ran 17.5t stock buggy I would have a cut out for my motor fan. But in mod, heat is never really a big issue unless you run carpet or turf. But for clay, they get warm, but never danger levels when running off-road clay.
Awesome video!
just have a few questions:
have you changed any of the shock setup and whats you opinion on low profile batterys in 2 wheel
