OK, if the distance "A" is greater (see pic) - less ackerman effect (steering rods angled more), if distance "A" is smaller, you'll have more ackerman effect (steering rods are angled less).
Also, the ackerman insert illustration on page 33 is correct, it's little confusing 'cause the picture to the left (and the two on the bottom) should be rotated 180 degrees to match the insert illustration. Hope I didn't confuse you even more

Ok, I understand. The illustration of the four settings is correct if you're looking at the servo saver from the rear of the car. So the Instruction Manual setting is for "more" Ackermann.

Thanks for the clarification and explanation of the Ackermann settings.
