Default How much do you use transmitter adjustments?

Just wondering how much you adjust your transmitter settings.

Last night I revisited steering expo for the first time in ages, knocked it down by 10% and transformed the car! Took a heap of twitchiness off the car that I couldn't get close to solving with the setup.

Is this something that a lot of you tweak with success? Or do you like to leave everything linear?

On my buggies I just use end point adjustments (steering and brakes) in the main, to avoid unnecessarily stalling the steering servo and locking the rear end if I dab the brakes.

On my Mini though I find the tranny adjustments a big help as there is not a lot of setup adjustment on a stock M03 with friction dampers so I go minus on steering expo, and run the steering dual rate at varying amounts between 70-80% depending on surface to try to make the little bugger a bit less "pointy".

I use travel, balance and curve more than anything else (like ABS, lap timers etc).

steering end points, steering expo and model memory is all you really need

Bought a new new 2.4 Ko Radio and drove like an auld Women today as the steering was far too quick compared to the Futaba......
A Radio can cure or frustrate your driving enjoyment.....:-)
