b) Setting the Alignment
Wheelalignment(toe-in=gure"A",toe-out=gure"B")describes
the relation of the wheel level to the driving direction.
The tyres are pushed apart in the front by rolling friction when driving.
Therefore, they are no longer precisely parallel to the driving direction.
To compensate, the tyres of the stationary vehicle can be adjusted so
that they point slightly inwards. This toe-in improves lateral cornering
of the tyres and leads to a more direct response to steering.
If a milder response to steering is desired, this can be achieved ac-
cordingly by adjusting a toe-out, i.e. the wheels of the stationary ve-
hicle point outward.
An alignment angle of more than 3° toe-in (A) or toe-out (B)
will lead to handling problems and decreased speed. It will
also increase tyre wear.

Setting front axle alignment:
Forthefrontaxle,alignmentcanbesetbyturningthetrack
rod lever (A). Because it has a left and right hand thread
each, it does not need to be dismantled to be adjusted.
Turn both track rod levers evenly (left and right front
wheel). Otherwise, you need to adjust the trim of the
transmitter (or even change the steering servo control by
adjusting the servo rod).

tion angle of the front wheel (Ackermann angle).
The manufacturer already selected the best setting. Therefore, you should not change the attachment point (B).
