Starting point for D4?
 

Following some pretty rubbish performance from my D4, a new speed was required and I fitted this afternoon, last run the brakes and steering were pretty rubbish.

Anyone any idea where I can find a basic setup to start her off on?
The speedo should take care of the brakes, but I need the steering sorted out, it pretty bad for understeer?

Like to find out how much toe/camber/caster etc and if possible someway to measure it, hopefully without the use of specialist tools and setup board. I'll get round to all that, but I would like to set it up as square as possible and with proper geometry ie: toe/camber/caster ?

I took of the linkages this evening and used a digital micrometer to check all were at the same length and with matching distances on the turnbuckles. The rear is toed in as standard and I cant see any way to adjust for less/more toe-in, but the front can all be adjusted as normal.

Anyone help?

You mean D4 or D8? As the D4 is 1/10th this is 1/8TH electric.. ?:)

Erh!....If you can show me the 1:10 off-road electric, I'll go there?:(

There aint one...is there?:mad:

So its off-road and its electric and two out of three aint too bad! :p

Good car if thats what you have, less supported than it was.

oOple is 99% off road electric and 99% of that is 10th.
