Steering

[drnez]

Is there anyway to make my RC10GT steer a bit tighter? Its hard to make tight turns on asphalt. Also I notice if I am full throttle (again, on asphalt) I can hardly turn at all.

If you havent already, put bearings in and use a highspeed servo, That will make turing tighter and faster. Also what tires are you running in front, if their isnt a lot of tread left the tire wont get any traction.

With the GT on pavement there's not a ton you can really do to tighten it up. You'll have to get road tires to help. But the big issue is that the chassis has a bunch of kick-up so there's a heap of caster in the front end. Because of that, when you're turning there's a whole bunch less contact between the front tires and the road. It's a ride that's designed for the dirt. That kind of caster lets the tire edges dig into the turns on dirt. But on pavement it's got nothing to bite into.
