Camber
What is Camber?
Camber is the angle of the tops of the wheels from straight up and down. When looking from the front or rear of the car. The top of the tyre leaning in is Negative Camber, leaning out is Positive Camber.
Most Rc cars will run with a few degrees of Negative camber.
This is so when cornering under load the car will roll on the suspension and the outside wheel should become vertical to the floor and give full tyre contact with the floor.
Caster
What is Caster?
Caster is the angle of the steering block in relation to the floor, if the steering block is straight up and down it will be 0 caster this will then increase as the top of the steering block leans toward the rear of the car.
Toe in
What is Toe In?
Toe In describes the angle of the front (or rear) tires when viewed from above. If the wheel runs parallel to the chassis this will be 0 toe in. When looking from the top of the car, toe in will be when the front of the tyre is closer to the chassis than the rear of the tyre.
Most RC cars will have toe in on the rear wheels as this aids the car driving in a straight line
Toe out
What is Toe out?
Toe out describes the angle of the front (or rear) tires when viewed from above. If the wheel runs parallel to the chassis this will be 0 toe in. When looking from the top of the car, toe out will be when the front of the tyre is further away from the chassis than the rear of the tyre.
Most RC cars will have toe out on the front wheels as this aids the car driving in a straight line
