How to set the thing up thread

[swiss]

Thanks, I had the idea of tightning the diffs up and running the front a little looser than the rear..... Also I wasn't getting enough drive out of corners... Have only got at the moment 6mm toe in per side.. Thought something like 8mm, aprox 2deg???

I wouldn't tighten the diffs to adjust the steering, the diffs ideally should be just tight enough to not slip.

All we need to do is find the sweet spot with the X10, I'm sure all it'll take is to change one little thing and it'll come good!

If you increase rear toe in, you'll get more rear grip overall, but it will also give you more power on oversteer which I've got plenty of already

I don't think I explained myself properely... There rear diff was slightly looser than the front... so I tightened it up just so it's a fraction tighter than the front!!!!
Also I found I wasn't getting a lot of drive out of corners, this is why I increased the rear toe in to 8mm each side? I have taken off all the castor on the front, dropped the front oil to 35wt, and increased the rear to 55wt.. Running 2deg castor on the rear... What do you reckon? This is on Astro, slightly damp?

Have you found that you had to lengthen the front toe links to dial out a great deal of toe-out? I had to make mine about 40mm long each to get 0 deg. toe.

OH! This is an error in the manual. You can find Richard's correction here [rcracechat.com].
