GENERAL
The maximum right and left travel of the steering wheel can be adjusted to best suit the feel of the steering wheel and your driving
style. Some drivers prefer to limit the travel of the steering wheel as it makes them feel more 'connected' to their model.

To adjust the maximum travel of the steering wheel, follow the steps below:
1) Remove the foam steering wheel grip from the steering wheel by firmly pulling it straight off.
2) To limit the maximum travel of the steering wheel, use a 1.5mm hex wrench to turn both grub
screws (A) clockwise equally the desired amount. To maximize the travel of the steering wheel,
turn both grub screws counter-clockwise equally the desired amount.
After making steering wheel travel adjustments, you must use the Variable Rate Adjustment
function to ensure your steering servo travel limits are equal. For more information, see the
V ariable Rate Adjustment section on page 71.
Limiting the maximum travel of the steering wheel will increase the sensitivity of the steering.
We recommend setting negative Exponential to soften the control feel around Neutral. For
more information, see the Exponential and ARC Adjustment section on pages 23 ~ 25.
To adjust the steering wheel spring tension, follow the step below:
1) To increase the spring tension of the steering wheel (firmer), use a 1.5mm hex
wrench to turn the Steering Wheel Tension Adjustment Screw (A) clockwise.
To decrease the spring tension of the steering wheel (looser), turn the Steering
Wheel Tension Adjustment Screw counter-clockwise.

The spring tension of the throttle trigger and steering wheel can be adjusted to best suit the user. Some users may prefer the
throttle trigger and/or steering wheel to feel 'firmer' and some users may prefer them to feel 'softer'. It all depends on your
personal preference.
