Corner Exit / On-Power Troubleshooting

Back to RC Setup Troubleshooting Guide

Reduce understeer

Most impact

• Anti-roll bar: lighter front / stiffer rear
• Tires: harder rear compound / softer front
• Roll center: lower front / higher rear
• Shock damping: heavier rear / lighter front
• Caster (F): more
• Diff fluid (4WD): heavier front & center, lighter rear
• Transmission layout (2WD off-road): laydown or layback / 3-gear
• Droop (pan car): less rear
• Ackermann: more
• Center shock: flatter (pan car)

Medium impact

• Shock springs: lighter front / stiffer rear
• Shock angle: outward at rear tower / inward at front tower
• Droop (F): less
• Toe: less rear toe-in
• Rear axle: use solid axle instead of differential (on-road)
• Front axle: use one-way or differential instead of solid axle (on-road)
• Ride height: lower front / higher rear
• Wheelbase: shorter

Less impact

• Camber: less rear / more front
• Anti-squat: more
• Kick-up: more

Reduce oversteer

Most impact

• Anti-roll bar: stiffer front / lighter rear
• Tires: softer rear compound / harder front
• Roll center: higher front / lower rear
• Shock damping: lighter rear / heavier front
• Caster (F): less
• Diff fluid (4WD): lighter front & center, heavier rear
• Transmission layout (2WD off-road): standup or layback / 4-gear
• Droop (pan car): more rear
• Center shock: higher in rear or lower in front (pan car)

Medium impact

• Shock springs: stiffer front / lighter rear
• Shock angle: inward at rear tower / outward at front tower
• Droop (F): more
• Toe: more rear toe-in
• Rear axle: use differential instead of solid axle (on-road)
• Front axle: use solid axle instead of one-way or differential (on-road)
• Ride height: higher front / lower rear
• Wheelbase: longer

Less impact

• Camber: more rear / less front
• Anti-squat: less
• Kick-up: less

Reduce traction roll

Most impact

• Anti-roll bar: stiffer in front / lighter in rear
• Tires: harder front compound / softer rear
• Ride height: lower
• Caster (F): less
• Roll center: higher front / lower rear
• Rear axle: Use differential instead of solid axle(on-road)

Medium impact

• Droop (F): more
• Shock springs: stiffer front / lighter rear
• Shock damping: heaver front / lighter rear
• Front axle: use solid axle instead of one-way or differential (on-road)
• Rebound: less
