ARC... What does it do?

[dougc]

I have had the mx-3 for about a year and still havnt found out what ARC means or stands for. Should I leave it at zero? what do you keep yours at? I am guess I should leave it at zero because That is what I am use to.

Thanks

ARC. Looks like ARC is like exponenital on the JR radios. What it's for is to flatten neutral (or steepen). It changes the servo response from linear to another rate while still retaining full travel. If the car is touchy at high speed, dial in some ARC to flatten the response curve near neutral and it'll make the steering act like the D/R is on low, but still has full travel near the endpoints. It's also useful on throttle/brakes.

Thanks very much, I will mess around with this arc thing and find out what I like.
