Hotbodies Stadium Pro turning radius

[Greyhound]

Well, more question, I just started to run in a track. I ran at 8feet wide track and it has 180 degree turn. The HB Stadium Pro just couldn't turn within the track. I use Futaba s9451 for steering servo. I set the end point where inner wheel is slightly touch push rod. I need to spin the rear wheel to turn and stay in the track. Is this normal to most traggies or my set up is not right? Thanks!

The LSP isn't known for having a great tight turn radius. I'm trying to remember with mine how the ackerman was set up. Run the holes furthest back on the ackerman and try going lighter in the front dif.

Thanks Jetmech, I already run at the furthest holes on the ackerman. I have 7-10-5 on my diff. Should I go 5-10-5 or even 3-10-5? Even at slow roll, i can't turn it tight. Or am I expecting too much? I thought this truck should turn 180 degree from mid lane without climbing the outer edge of the other lane.

try 5-10-3. Is it pushing on power of the corner or is it pushing on entry?

 

[Greyhound]

It's more of pushing on the entry. I had only 1-2 laps before the center diff lock. I've fixed it already, but no chance to run it get.

LSP Steering

I used Mugen MBX5T rear outer tie rod end and the turn buckle with the HB end on the other side. Now I have really good steering with 0 offset wheels. The LSP has a few issues but I think I have solved them.

get a more torqie, metal geared, powerful servo

or you could ghetto rig in two steering servos

or customize you steering linkages to make the radius wider
