Default Hobao H2 Pro Anti Squat and 5 deg front mod...

Hi folks.
My first post here.

I built the above buggy a little bit 'blind' - so I'm building a second one with hindsight!

I was just wondering if somebody can explain to me

1) The pro kit has a 5 degree taper wedge (optional) which effectively adjusts the angle of the front arms. The thing is - which way should it go, and what are the effects? Thick end at the front, making the angle more severe, or thick end at the back making the front flatter?

2) Anti squat blocks. These are not detailed at all in the manual. I simply picked some that fitted and wedged them in there but apparently, they have a purpose. Can anybody explain to me how these should be fitted and again, the effect they have.

Finally, I noted when racing with some of the big boys that the turn in and grip they appear to have on the surface (carpeted) is immense compared to mine. Their front ends just turn in so sharply, ang grip. The back end just follows.

No idea how they achieve this but I'm trying to learn. My H2 is set up as per the manual. We always race on carpet. Suggestions please???

Thanks.
