Best setup for clay highgrip
Miles, So Dialed's RC setup AI
There isn’t a single model-specific “best” high-grip setup for the RC10 B6, but a solid starting point is the 2WD buggy dirt/clay baseline. It gives you a stable starting geometry; tune from there if the car traction-rolls or pushes.
- Ride height: 19 mm front and rear
- Camber: -2° front and rear
- Front toe: 1° out
- Rear toe: 3° in
- Anti-squat: 2°
- Tires: On smooth, clean clay, try clay slicks or ghost slicks. Choose compound for track temperature and wear, not just grip.
On high grip, the B6 may traction-roll in corners. If it does, first lower ride height evenly, keeping enough clearance for bumps and landings. If it still rolls, try a stiffer front anti-roll bar, less front caster, or harder tires. These changes reduce the car’s tendency to tip, but can also make it feel less nimble or reduce available grip.
Make one change at a time and test. If it doesn’t traction-roll but instead pushes or gets loose, describe where in the corner it happens and I can suggest the next adjustment.
Follow-up
Loose out of corner
Miles
Add a small amount of rear toe-in first. It should help the B6 hold its line and stay planted as you accelerate out of the corner; too much can make it push and feel sluggish to rotate.
If that isn’t enough, try one tire change at a time: a softer rear compound for more rear grip, or a harder front compound to calm the car’s rotation. Those are useful ways to reduce exit oversteer, but the harder front tire may add understeer.
If it only gets loose when you get on the throttle, also try feeding in power more smoothly. Does it step out right as you accelerate, or is it already sliding before you apply throttle?
