I own a nitro rustler and the rear tires have been wearing so horrible ever since i first got the thing. When i apply throttle they turn into the center. I don't know how to fix this because i only know the camber adjustment. Is there a way to turn the wheels more out so they don't do this?

After I crank the truck, I can throttle the control, and everything works fine. The problem I'm having is, the brakes don't seem to work at all and when I try to apply the brakes, it's almost like it bouncing that servo motor from brake to throttle and it gets stuck. I have no control of...
