Adjustment Possibilities for the Model Car

a) Set Camber
The camber is the inclination of the wheel level as viewed from the front (vertical).
Negative inclination
(Top wheel edge points inwards)
The setting of the wheel is exaggerated in the two figures in order to make the difference between nega-
tive and positive cambers more obvious. The setting on the model vehicle should of course not be as
extreme as shown!
• A negative inclination of the front wheels increases the lateral cornering powers of the wheel when driving through
bends, the steering reacts more directly and steering forces are reduced. At the same time the wheel is pushed onto
the axle leg in the direction of the axis. This stops an axial bearing clearance, the driving behaviour is calmer.
• A negative inclination on the rear wheels reduces the tendency of the rear of the vehicle to swerve in bends.
• Setting a positive camber on the other hand reduces the cornering force of the wheels and should not be used.
Setting Front Axle Camber:
This setting is made by turning one ball headed bolt each
into either direction at the top (A) and bottom (B) of the axle
stub. First remove the front wheel with a suitable wheel brace
if required.
The plastics nut (G) may remain in the rim or
detach from the wheel axle when the wheel is
taken off.
In this case ensure that the driving pin (F) is not
lost.
When the wheel is later replaced, ensure that
the driving pin (F) is exactly in the centre of the
wheel axle and inserted into the respective
plastics nut groove (G).
The plastics nut (G) must be put onto the wheel
axle or driving pin (F) in the right orientation!
The large plastics grub screw (D) holds the inner ball-headed screws (E) to the axle stubs (C).
Positive inclination
(Top wheel edge points outwards)
