🔧 Tuning guide for a stable A800R/RR 🌤

▶Tip n°2: A MELLOW FRONT END

Two ideas to try if you’re struggling with stability:

1️⃣ Longer links at the front ! You can use the AM19-LTL bulkheads clamps at the front of the car. The upper arm / camber links will be 1mm longer. The result is a reduced camber gain and a front end that washes off a bit more. The front end hooks less into the track and settles after the rear, giving you a more reassuring car. You can go even further with this idea of having shorter rear upper arms vs the front. But instead of using the AM19-LTL at the front, you can use the short links position of the AM19-2 (or AM19-FX) at the rear and the stock AM19-R at the front. This gives you an even more dramatic difference between the rear and the front. The result is a rear end that settles super early in the corner, giving you a very reassuring car.

2️⃣ Experiment with the ackerman setting. Usually the forward setting is for asphalt and the backward setting is used on carpet. Many driver don’t bother and just set it in the middle all year round. But it’s a powerful setting to fine tune your front end, it dictates how round or how aggressive is your overall corner shape. The most forward setting gives a rounder corner. Sometimes you’ll be faster with a car that turns « square » than a nice round car. That’s just the way it it, uglier but faster. This one is very tied to driver preference and how you like to approach corners.

3️⃣Reduce your steering angle ! This one is known from year 1 into your RC journey but in the heat of the moment you can sometimes forget about it. There is no trophy for who can run the most steering lock, your lap times are the final arbiter. If you’re faster with reduced steering so be it. Usual values are 26° (outside wheel angle) on asphalt and 24° on carpet. Those are on the high side, reduce until you feel like your driving and not managing your car.

From where I stand, most drivers will benefit from a car they can trust. That’s the whole philosophy behind this project. Get your A800R/RR stability fix on flowrmx.com
