Reverse Wobble

[TwinSignals]

Hi all, so fixed the driveshaft problem on the MT10 Everything it all go again

We had this problem before the drive shaft went, but since the fix seems to be exaggerated (although pretty sure they can’t be connected)

I'm definitely a kinetic learner, so these issues are just “the next challenge to overcome”.

Big power wobbles reversing at high speed, don’t remember it doing it out of the box.

What should I be checking, or is this just expected behaviour as the front end can’t be as rigid as the fixed back end?

Thanks
In adavance guys!

Mine used to do the same, but when my servo broke I put in a stronger one, and it seemed to mostly fix it. I think it's because the servo can't hold straight at high speed reverse.

All of my cars have reverse wobble besides my race buggies so I always thought it was normal.

In a way it is, it just might be more severe if you have a weaker servo. This happens to most rc unless you have a stupidly strong servo compared to your car weight. It's all in the physics, my friend.

Does it exhibit the same reverse wobble backing off-road as it does on-road?
Tires AE/MT10 original equipment or after market?
What is the MT10 radio system (incl. transmitter, receiver and steering servo)? Radio is AE/MT10 XP-120 or other?
Reverse power can be adjusted with aftermarket radio/ESC settings. I run reverse power on all my RC at 25% or lowest percentile setting. -AC

Caster effect. It's the steering blocks trying to turn themselves around... like shopping carts.

Yeah, normal to have some wobble in reverse.

Thanks guys, yeah no issue at low speed, it’s not a problem, just wanted some reassurance that it’s nothing that needs fixing!

Original tires, it’s literally a month old, everything is stock. I’ll look into the radio system, I’ve no idea!

Complete noob to this, but not engineering or motor mechanics, just going through the learning curve
