Precision Ballast for Chassis Balance

The 3Racing 3RAC-BW01 weights offer small, repeatable mass increments for setup work. Use the 5g and 10g pieces to bias the vehicle fore or aft and observe changes to transient response and steady state understeer.

Application in Competitive Setups

These weights are suitable for fine adjustments on 1/10 scale racecars. Strategic placement near the battery tray, servo mount or bumper helps tune pitch, roll and rotational inertia without altering suspension geometry.

Professional Installation Notes

Securely bond weights to a flat backing or use a low-profile bracket to avoid introducing unwanted leverage points. Validate placement with controlled lap testing and record changes to make data-driven setup decisions.

How does adding 5g or 10g affect handling balance?

Small forward ballast tends to reduce understeer on corner entry while rearward weight can increase rear grip; track testing is required to quantify the exact effect for your setup.

Can I combine these with shock and sway bar changes?

Yes, ballast adjustments should be coordinated with spring rates and anti-roll tuning to achieve the desired dynamic balance without introducing instability.

What is the recommended mounting method for repeatable results?

Use a rigid bracket or permanent adhesive to keep weights fixed; record exact locations so setups can be replicated between test sessions.
