ChASSIS TUNING GUIDE
Camber is referred to as the amount of the tire's surface that contacts the ground. Tires that are exactly perpendicular to the ground
have 0 degrees of camber. If the top of the tire leans in toward the chassis, the tire has negative camber. If the top of the tire leans out
away from the chassis, the tire has positive camber.
l
Camber angle should be adjusted to ensure maximum tire contact between the ground and the tires for your particular track. You can
check to ensure maximum tire contact by first cleaning your tires, then by running your
Outlaw RTR Brushless Buggy
on your track.
After running, check the dirt and/or wear marks on the tire. Adjust the camber angle if the dirt and/or wear marks are more toward the
outside or the inside of the tire.
n
Adjusting Camber Angle - Front and Rear
recommended initial settings
l
For driving on smooth surfaces set both the front and back tires at 0 degrees.
l
For driving on rough surfaces set the front tires at -1 degree and the back tires at -2 degrees.
q
To increase positive camber angle, use an adjustable wrench to turn the upper
turnbuckles and lengthen them to push the top of the tires out.
Camber settings should be measured with the
Outlaw RTR Brushless Buggy
at its normal ride height.
PRO TIP:
For more precise camber adjustments, use a dedicated camber gauge, available at most hobby retailers.

q
To increase negative camber angle, use an adjustable wrench to turn the upper
turnbuckles and shorten them to pull the top of the tires in.
You can adjust your
Outlaw RTR Brushless Buggy's
steering sensitivity by tightening or loosening the servo saver spring. In general,
tightening the servo saver spring will cause the steering to be more responsive, and loosening the servo saver spring will cause the
steering to be less responsive.
n
Adjusting Steering Response - Front
recommended initial settings
l
We recommend leaving the servo saver adjustment ring in the factory position.
Tightening the servo saver spring increases the chance of damaging the steering servo during a crash.
We do not recommend
tightening the servo saver spring any more than the factory setting.
q
Adjust the servo saver spring by turning the knurled adjustment ring up or down using
a pair of pliers. Threading the adjustment ring down (clockwise) will tighten the servo
saver spring and threading the adjustment ring up (counter-clockwise) will loosen the
servo saver spring.
