Configuring The Wheel Alignment - Reely « Mini Bulldog » 4WD RtR Notice D'emploi

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
resistance. 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 so that they point slightly inwards. This toe-in improves the
lateral cornering of the tyre and results in a more direct response to
steering commands.
To decrease the steering response, use toe-out (the wheels of the
stationary 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 above diagram depicts a heavily exaggerated setting. It is only used to show the difference between
toe-in and toe-out; using such a setting would make the vehicle very difficult to control!
Setting the front axle toe:
Turn the steering arm (A) to adjust the toe-in/toe-out for
the front axle.
Before turning the screw, remove one of the clips from the
spherical-head screw (e.g. with flat or needle-nose pliers).
Turn the screw (e.g. by one full turn), and then press the
clip back onto the screw until it clicks into place.
Important:
Turn the steering links on the left and right wheel by the same amount, otherwise you will need to adjust the
trim on the remote control or correct the steering servo (e.g. adjust the servo rod or change the position of
the servo arm on the servo).
Setting the rear axle toe:
The rear axle is a rigid axle, therefore the toe cannot be changed.
