Got some more pics, my yz2 has 3mm of shims, my rb6 has the rack flipped so the ball studs are further back than normal. As you can see, the yz2 has pretty much dead straight links when steering is straight, rb6 is slightly angled towards the front, and this would be even more angled with the rack flipped back as it should be.

Lee did also confirm with me that increasing spacers calms steering

We might have to measure the RB6 Ackerman to see exactly what is going on with it. Seems strange that straight links are calm on one car and angled is calm on another.

This is what I said the racks are the same but apparently a different effect

Ran my YZ-2 for the first time last night. Nice and smooth I must say.
Just one thing I had with it was the inside rear wheel keeps lifting up in tight corners that I couldent get it to stop doing ? The car felt like it just had toooo much front grip in total. Any way to shed some of that front grip at all ? I was running the Shin Adachi Energy RC - Guangzhou setup with the following changes. http://www.petitrc.com/setup/yokomo/...ngzhou20150405 5000 diff oil, gull wing front arms/tower, +1mm Bmax rear arms 4mm ackerman spacers. Rear shocks on back. 55g brass lipo weight. 20g behind motor. This is on indoor carpet. Had a little traction roll also which was strange as I thought the extra long rear arms would have stopped that ??? I had to cut back a lot of the dual rate also as it was just too much at 100%. Maybe need half worn out front tires ? But the rear inside wheel lifting up is probably the biggest problem. |

What size lipo? Try the straight front arms.

Springs are the Red front and Orange rear. Carpet springs. Same as on Shins setup sheet.
Shorty lipo |

Use normal staggers, not cut staggers, they just give way too much.

Ah OK. The only staggers I can get locally (ie Australia) are the slim staggers. Is that any good?

Yes.

I believe from pictures that I have seen from Shins car before, that he runs his cut staggers on the full size 2wd wheel with them stretched across. Not 100% sure how the handling would differ due to this but id imagine it might be a little more stable and less pointy on the front end? It's not something I have ever tried.

Servo Horns
I have been using the shorter servo horn supplied with the kit. I did notice that to get full lock I was having to up my dual rate and EPA on my transmitter, not an issue works fine.
Yesterday I managed to strip the splines on the shorter horn so replaced it with the longer one supplied with the kit, obviously now I was able to tune back down my dual rate and EPA due to the extra travel of the longer horn. My question is what are the pros and cons of using a shorter/longer servo horn, and which do you prefer/recommend? I am considering getting the aluminium horn, but also thinking i'd rather replace a striped servo horn rather than the servo. |

Only a long arm has more leverage on the servo gears than a short one. Its probably moot and they would both be about the same ???

I'm still not certain I've described this very well, but hope the above makes sense.
