      Hi,

      I’m having a problem centering the steering on this car. It simply likes to veer to the left and I’ve adjusted the radio to the right to try and get it to travel in a straight line. However, it seems like I have to make quite a large adjustment. Once that’s done I notice that my turning circles both left and right aren’t the same.

      Do I simply need to take the servo motor out, center the front wheels and place the servo motor back in ? Could it be that simple ?

      Thanks in advance.

      in the attached pic you’ll see a trimpot circled in red. this centers the steering.

      adjust the steering trim to zero on your tx, twiddle the trimpot on the pcb til the steering looks right then use the tx trim to fine tune. :8ball:
