Turning radius?

[Kaz the Minotaur]

Seems like my turning radius is pretty wide. Is this normal for 1/5 scale? I have my EPA up all the way and the push rod is in the top hole on the servo arm.


Anything else I can do?

Wide is pretty normal, i would say approx 10' diameter turning circle would be average. turning technique helps, ie gass on off at correct time. scandinavian flip

That reminds me... It seems like it is hard to flip. I've only rolled it once and that is because I hit a rock in the back yard that the neighbor lady used to cover a ground hog hole.

sorry i meant Flick. but yeah its hard to flip too, it's got a very low CoG, I can set mine on the side on the tire sidewalls and is stays there. Handy for swapping gears!

Go into a turn, slow down a little and touch the brakes and she turns like a champ. Turning radius is affected by driving technique as much as the inherent mechanical limitations built into the truck.
