Setting The Alignment; Advanced Tuning - Reely 23 90 00 Bedienungsanleitung

d) Setting the Alignment
This alignment designates the position of the wheel level to the driving
direction.
During the drive the tyres are pushed apart in the front because of the
rolling friction and this is why they are no longer precisely parallel to the
driving direction. To balance this, the tyres of the stationary vehicle can
be adjusted in a way so that they point slightly towards the inside. This
toe-in improves the lateral cornering of the tyres and thus a more direct
response to the steering.
If a milder response to steering is desired, this can be achieved accord-
ingly by adjusting a toe-out, i.e. the wheels of the stationary vehicle point
outward. An alignment angle of 0° on the front axle ensures the best
driveability on almost any ground.
A trail angle of more than 3° toe-in or toe-out leads to handling problems
and reduces the speed.
For a rough setting of the alignment, you can screw the outer track rods on the steering plate onto two additional attachment spots. This also changes the
Ackermann angle. Tensioning screws for separate wheel alignment of the front wheels are located in the right and left steering linkages between the steering
lever and the steering plate.
The toe-in of the front wheel must not exceed 4°!
Toe-in (a):
Turning the straining screws towards the front lengthens the outer steering link, the wheel is pushed outwards via
the steering knuckle arm at the back. This setting leads to faster wear on the inside of the tyres.
Toe-out (b):
Turning the straining screws backward shortens the outer steering link; the wheel is pulled inwards via the
steering knuckle arm at the back. This setting leads to faster wear on the outside of the tyres.
e) Advanced Tuning
Setting the differentials
The differentials of the vehicle are filled with grease. The viscosity of the grease blocks the differential, which is suitable for most terrains and conditions.
By exchanging the grease for highly viscose silicone differential oil the blocking effect can be modified. The higher the viscosity, the higher the blocking effect.
• If the model swerves in bends when loaded, you can loosen the rear differential or lock the front one.
• If the model understeers when loaded, lock the rear differential or loosen the front differential.
You can select between silicone oil with a viscosity of 1000 (small blocking effect) up to 50000 (high locking effect).
Attention!
We recommend that the transmission grease is only replaced by experienced users who know their models and have adequate technical skills for
taking out and disassembling the differentials.
Setting the toe-in of the rear wheels
To set the toe-in of the rear wheels, the toe-in block has to be exchanged.
To do so, pull the E-rings from the axles of the lower transverse links. If you exchange the toe-in block with another one with a greater hole distance, the
transverse links are no longer parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle, but at an angle.
The alignment angle of the rear wheels changes accordingly.
Damping
To further optimize the damping characteristics, we offer silicon oil for the shock absorbers in different viscosities as an accessory. Our product range also
includes tuning springs of various hardness.
