So i suppose you got a new bod for it eh?

0 caster + 0 camber = minimum push + maximum spin tendency ... good for tight corner but lame on big sweeper. Maybe FR lock can compensate, nt entirely sure. Just being curious, if the car is set with a 0 camber with PVC tires, the centrifugal force generated from the sliding especially at the rear, not to mention the weight transfer of the car with braking & acceleration (which normally will load the shocks further), wont it resulted in more tire wear outside compare to inside?

guess it depends on the ground too ? if cement smooth ground u camber .. u wud not have as much control as 0 camber...lol if serangoon .. i guess need slight camber ba ? EDIT : Plz do correct me if i m wrong ..

But this is hardly ever seen in practical as car do roll even a bit because of the shocks setup. The roll causes weight transfer and thus uneven load. The effect will be more on front wheels as they travel longer radius compare to rear. Radical Camber and caster will make the wear even more and get worse if the car runs on unequal amount of LR turns (incl G Force). so yes, normally tyre will wear more on FR if it makes L turn. Surface that is abbrasively uneven may affect as well, but this is external and can be considered as a constant factor because all 4 wheels run on the same surface.

EDIT : Plz do correct me if i m wrong .. maybe. camber set i believe related to how much contact patch needed during cornering depends on car behaviour, track layout and condition to get optimum speed corner. It doesn't help much in straight line, it contributes to uneven wear. For s'goon we try to get even wear, if you can get the translation.

when setting cambers always try to achieve even tire wear tats it...
but always remember, other settings on the car could also influence the camber change...

Sorry for another curiosity newbie question ...
how about grip setups ? in particular camber,... also trying to have even wear in grip tires at the same time acheive maximum traction and stalability while turning ?

and olso the weight transfer on the grip car is another factor should the weight shift on the car while cornering (eg.. shaky battery...) even wid the rite camber n stuff the car will still shift... jus a tot

On the subject of batt.....
Been bothering me for quite sometimes now......let's you charged up a 3300mah batt.....how long will it last till it start to lose the juice......few hrs???.....few days???

should be more than a month before it emptied... In one day after full charge, should drop about 200-400mAH

Ahhhh....i see......so the batt is still good to be use even if left unused for a couple of days...... Thanks bro...

if you plan not to use it for a month or so, you should fully charge it... and remember to re-charge every month or so.. sounds like you off today ah...
