XRAY - Model racing cars

T3-2011 as per box kit - no extras.

Can any shed any light on the following problem :
When steering approaches full lock (more so left) I can see that the rotation of the wheel causes a kick back through the steering arms and the suspension.
Initial thoughts are that the front drive shaft is too long (52mm) and that on full lock it's binding as the swivel rotates round (eg 2 times per rev)


Any suggestions as to what I have done wrong ?


thanks.

This is a basic behaviour of all cars using standard driveshafts and spool. The effect should be to both sides at a similar level. If not, you should check if you built your steering symmetric.

There are two ways of getting rid of this: using ECS-driveshafts or using a oneway.


Third option is to not care about it. It is getting better if you put a good amount of grease to the joints.

Many thanks for the answer.

It was happening on both sides - just didn't see it.

Now have the ECS drive shafts - problem solved.

Only comment : the T3-2011 kit really should have the ECS items as standard.


thanks.
