Cleon set-up
The Cleon off-road buggy is a top competition racing machine. It therefor features multiple points for adjusting and
mounting the parts. These points have been choosen carefully allowing you to quickly change and set-up the car
during a race.
Setting up a car is personal. Below are given some general guidelines to get you started.
We advise you not to make more than 1 adjustment per time unless you are very experienced and skilled. By
adjusting just 1 part in your set-up, you will be able to determine much better if it did improve the handeling of
your car or not.
We advise to make adjustments always equal on both sides of the car !
