C) Setting The Camber Inclination - Reely RAMBO Racing 7.5 RTR Bedienungsanleitung

6. Set-Up
Adjusting the shock absorber
Compared to the standard version, the front and rear shock absorbers have three resp. five further fixing points at the damper plates above.
By adjusting the shock absorbers you can achieve a change in the response behavior of the suspension by modifying the angle of attack, besides
achieving a higher/lower setting of the chassis.
Adjusting the front shock absorbers
dämpfmax.eps
- Adjusting the upper transverse control arms to a steeper angle of attack reduces the progressivity.
The vertical relative movement of the chassis is directly guided into the suspension, the damper effect is
instant, the suspension is already harder following a small deflection. At the same time,
the vehicle is raised.
- Adjusting the shock absorber to a flatter angel of attack increases the progressivity. In the case of a flatter
angle of attack, the chassis must have a deeper spring deflection in order for the suspension to react; i.e. the
suspension reacts softly at first and then becomes increasingly harder.
The position of the vehicle is lowered.
Adjusting the rear shock absorbers
- The effects of the damping correspond to the above description
Preload and attachment points of the shock absorbers of an axle must be adjusted identically
right and left!
c) Setting the camber inclination
The camber is the inclination of the wheel level as viewed from the front (vertical).
Negative camber

Positive camber

Adjusting the inclination at the front and rear wheels
The camber can be modified by adjusting the upper transverse control arms respectively in two (front) and six attachment points (rear transverse con-
trol arm) at the shock absorber brackets.

Furthermore, right/ left threaded rods with spanner flat (5mm) to fine tune the inclination of the camber are located respectively in the upper transverse
control arms.

The power is directly induced in
parallel to the direction of deflec-
tion (=steepest angle of attack,
90°) of the wheel, and the shock
absorber serves its maximum
use.
Negative camber (wheel top edges point inward) on the front wheels increases the cornering power of the wheels when
driving in bends; the steering reacts more directly, the steering forces are reduced. At the same time, the wheel is pushed onto
the axle leg in the direction of the axis.
This stops an axial bearing clearance, the driving behavior is calmer.
A negative inclination on the rear wheels reduces the tendency of the rear of the vehicle to swerve in bends.
By setting a negative inclination, the wear on the inside of the tires increases. However, this effect can be compensated by
setting a toe-in.
Adjusting the inclination in positive direction until a positive inclination (wheel top edges point outward) reduces the cornering
power of the wheels.

Vertically to the direction of deflec-
tion of the wheel (=flattest angle of
attack 0°), no power is induced and
the shock absorber has no effect.
