It handles SO much better with this mod. I think it had like 2° of toe-in stock or something, but I set it to about .5°, unbelievable!!

Russ,

Doesn't the rigid bar limit suspension travel? The stock tie rod is also a servo-saver. I would worry about cracking a gear in the servo. Even so, must be nice to have something that is adjustable.

Russ, check out the setup I came up with. It cost me about $8 from a lhs, plus a little modification work, using off the shelf tiny rc airplane parts. My camera wouldn't focus very well up close, though.

I have since modfified it slightly, to make it better and lower, and it doesn't affect the independent nature of the front suspension.

Regards,
Bravin
