Setting The Camber - Reely 1277092 Notice D'emploi

9. Vehicle Settings
a) Setting the Camber
The camber is the inclination of the wheel level as viewed from the front (vertical).
The setting of the wheel is exaggerated in the two figures in order to make the difference between negative
and positive cambers more obvious. The setting on the model vehicle should of course not be as extreme
as shown!
• A negative inclination of the front wheels increases the lateral cornering powers of the wheel when driving through
bends, the steering reacts more directly and steering forces are reduced. At the same time, the wheel is pushed onto
the axle spur in the direction of the axle. This balances out axial bearing clearance, the driving behaviour is calmer.
• A negative inclination on the rear wheels reduces the tendency of the rear of the vehicle to swerve in bends.
• The setting of a positive camber, in contrast, reduces the side-guide forces of the tyres.
• A camber setting for drifting (and the hard/smooth tyres) is not usually sensible, however, and the basic setting
chosen should be a camber of 0°.
Setting Front Axle Camber:
For setting the camber, turn the upper transverse link (1).
Because the screw in the transverse link has a left and
right hand thread at either end, the transverse link does
not need to be dismantled for the camber to be adjusted
Setting Rear Axle Camber:
For setting the camber, turn the upper transverse link (2).
Because the screw in the transverse link has a left and
right hand thread at either end, the transverse link does
not need to be dismantled for the camber to be adjusted.
