High bite carpet shock angle lay down stand up
Miles, So Dialed's RC setup AI
On high-bite carpet, stand the shocks up to reduce overall grip and calm the car. That means mounting them farther out on the shock tower and/or farther in on the suspension arm; the general setup guidance recommends this for reducing traction.
For the Assailant 2021, the kit setup lists the front shocks in the center tower holes and the rear shocks in the middle/mid-out tower holes, with the front arm mounts outside. It doesn’t specify a carpet-specific shock position.
Make one small angle change at a time and test. If the car then feels too loose or loses traction, move the shocks back toward laid down.
