Setup Board

[deadeye]

Is Hudy the only company to make a setup board? I have a HPI RS4 2. I don't know that I need anything as fancy as the hudy board but would like something that works well
Thanks,
Mike

Mike, if you want something simple, check out the RPM Camber gauge..it's about $15, and you can set camber easily but it's not nearly as accurate as the Hudy.

If you want the best thing on the market, pick up a Hudy board. It'll check camber, front & rear toe-in and toe out, steering throw, and will do it all precisely. It's worth the $$$ if you can afford it, and it's the only one on the market worth having IMHO.

Integy now makes one, but they arn't as nice as the hudy ones.

Distro,

Why isn't the Integy as nice as the Hudy? What are the differences?

Hudy makes a universal 1:10 scale setup system if I'm not mistaken. A camber gauge and a tweak station (like MIPs) are two really necessary setup tools for a TC3 (and any TC for that matter). The setup systems like Hudy's are mostly for 1:8 scale stuff that use ball thinggies (I don't know what they are called). I know at least with the TC3 many of the adjustments that the setup system is used for are adjusted by stitching out pieces (not adjustable in fine increments - like turnbuckles). If you want to change the rear toe-in you switch out a piece of plastic - not an adjustment that the setup system would help with. You can get away with much less than the full Hudy setup system, but you do get what you pay for. I might get one myself... But that's just my $.02.

I just went to the Hudy site and was amazed that they don't make a set up gauge for the Associated TC3! Did I miss something? I have this car on order (Factory Team!) and I was psyched to get the Hudy gauge. If I'm wrong could someone let me know? Also, how much does the Hudy gauge cost?

thanks

The integy one is aluminum, and not clear plastic. I guess it is just a preference, i like the clear plastic more.
