SETTING GUIDE

FRONT CAMBER ANGLE SETTING

REAR CAMBER ANGLE SETTING

Place the model car on flat surface. Raise the chassis to it's maximum clearance
before the wheels leave the ground.
Adjust the length of the front and rear upper arms so that the wheels are right angle to the
ground.
The camber angle adjustment can be moving the turnbuckle rod on the upper arms,
clockwise or anti-clockwise.
(We suggest use zero degree for the front and 1.5

degree for the rear.)

FRONT TOE-IN AND TOE-OUT SETTING

TOE-IN

NEUTRAL POSITION

Making the tie rod shorter will make the front tires
become toe-out.
Response will be quicker and will under steer.

REAR SHOCK ANGLE SETTING

Firm rear suspension, over steering.
Soft rear suspension, under steering.

FRONT SHOCK ANGLE SETTING

Firm front suspension, less steering.

Adjust the front caster angle by changing the arm block "A" or "B" on the front lower arms.
After you set the caster angle , you will also need to adjust the front upper arm position.
The final caster also depends on the kick-up setting.
Example:16 degree caster on C-hub + 7degree kick-up+"A" lower arm block =22 degree final caster.
16 degree caster on C-hub + 7degree kick-up+"B" lower arm block =23 degree final caster

Increases off-power steering into a corner.
Less caster Decreases on-power steering out of and in a corner.
Decreases straight-line stability.

Adjust the wheelbase by using the spacers on either side of the rear uprights (at the bottom pin).

less spacers in front of the rear upright.
- increases rearward weight transfer during acceleration.
- increases on-power traction.
- quicker off-power steering into corners.
- slight tendency to push on-power at corner exit.
- increases steering response.
- better on tighter, more technical tracks.

more spacers in front of the rear upright.
- decreases off-power steering into sharp corners.
- increases stability.
- slower initial steering reaction (off-power).
- improves on-power steering at corner exit.
- better handling over bumps and ruts.
- better on more open tracks with high-speed corners.

IMPORTANT! Make equal adjustments on both left and right sides of the car.
