b) Configuring the wheel alignment
The wheel alignment (toe-in = figure A, toe-out = figure B) describes the
alignment of the wheel plane relative to the direction of travel.
When the vehicle moves, the tyres are pushed apart due to rolling resist-
ance. As a result, they are not parallel to the direction of travel.
To compensate for this, the tyres of the stationary vehicle can be adjusted
in a way so that they point slightly inwards. This toe-in improves the lateral
cornering of the tyre and therefore results in a more direct response to
steering commands.
To decrease the steering response, use toe-out (the wheels of the station-
ary vehicle will point outwards).
A toe angle of more than 3° toe-in (A) or toe-out (B) may cause
steering difficulties and reduces the speed. It also increases
tyre wear.
The figure above shows a heavily over-emphasised setting. It is only used to show the difference between
toe-in and toe-out. If a similar setting is used for the vehicle, it will be very difficult to control!
The toe of the rear axle can be adjusted on the vehicle. A slight toe-in on the rear axle results in more stable handling
for steering and braking.
Set the toe for the front and rear axle:
Adjust the toe-in/toe-out by turning the steering arm (A).
The steering arm has a left and right-handed thread,
therefore you do not need to remove it when making ad-
justments.
Always set the toe angle the same on the left and right
wheels.
Slight deviations in the setting of the toe on the front axle
can be corrected via the steering trim on the transmitter.
