To set the toe-in of the rear wheels the
toe-in block
has to be exchanged.
-
Pull the E-rings from the axles of the lower transverse links.
If you exchange the toe-in block with another one with a greater hole distance, the transverse
links are no longer parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle, but at an angle. The alignment
angle of the rear wheels changes accordingly.

ECHANICAL
LOWERING
For lowering the chassis, it is possible to mechanically limit the top-out path.
To do so, one screw each can be screwed in from the top into the bottom transverse links, sup-
porting against the chassis.

TABILISERS
To reduce body roll (curl) of the vehicle when going through bends, the model is equipped with a
transverse stabiliser at the rear; the vehicle can be retrofitted with a transverse stabiliser at the
front.
A transverse stabiliser is made of a u-shaped curved spring steel wire, which is at both ends con-
nected with one of the lower transverse arms via ball-shaped heads. For this reason, two steering
points for the ball-shaped heads are provided (a). In the centre, the wire bracket is mounted to
rotate on the differential housing. The boreholes for the mounting are also provided (b). When one
wheel is deflected, the other wheel is then also deflected via the bracket. The transverse stabiliser
also supports the effect of the oil-dampened shock absorber when the wheel is rebounding, since
the restoring force of the wire bracket supports the rebounding of the shock absorber (against the
friction in the piston).
In this way, the wheel remains in contact with the ground in every situation.

FFECT
To adjust the progressivity of the steering angle or the Ackermann effect, the steering links can be
reset to other steering points both in the steering arms and in the steering plate.

AMPING
To further optimize the damper characteristics, we offer, in our accessories, silicon oil for the shock absorbers in different viscosities!
Our product range also includes tuning springs of various hardness.

CENTER
The roll center is the theoretical point around which a vehicle tilts when driving
curves.
The roll center results from the chassis geometry.
If you draw a line each parallel to the top
(a)
and bottom
(b)
transverse link on one
side, these intersect on the opposite side. If you join this point of intersection
(c)
with
the wheel contact spot, the roll center is located on the intersection of this straight line
(d)
with the center axis of the model
(x)
.
In case of a low roll center, the leverage effect of the pint of gravity is high, and the vehicle tends to tilt stronger
around the roll axis in curves.
You can change the roll center of an axis by shifting the top transverse link of the front and rear axis to other
steering points and therefore change the angle between the top and bottom transverse link.
-
A low roll center results in increased tire adhesion and better cornering force at the end of the curve.
-
A high roll center reduces the heeling and the vehicle becomes more agile.
Changes must be performed evenly on both sides!
A change of the roll center also has an effect on other vehicle settings!
