Steering radius - Radio/servo adjustment???

[SandMan]

Hey all,


so today I was bench testing the steering and noticed that my new dune runner did not use the full range of steering thus taking very wide turns. So I tested the steering servo in channel 2 with the throttle trigger and this channel is able to drive the servo to full capacity giving the car a tighter turning radius. left and right.


So has anyone else noticed this? is there a way swap between channels 1 and 2 on the transmitter? Or is there a way to increase the sensitivity of the steering wheel and how the servo reacts - increase the throw back and forth for left and right steering? (Im not talking about the trim but a way to have the servo complete a further range of motion)


let me know. sorry for the long a$$ post.

I hadn't until you brought it up. I have aftermarket servo's though... I just adjust my steering so there is no binding or noise coming from the servo's. There is no way that I know of to switch channels on the stock radio if that is what your asking. You can adjust the EPA or EndPoint Adjustments on the more expensive radio's but not on the stock one AFAIK. I still have my stock radio, so I'll go check it tomorrow at some point. I'm pretty certain though it's just got the basics.

On the stock radio, use the dual rate knob to adjust servo travel. Should be labeled "D/R".
