Default Re: My Globeliner build "Big Bird"

A32limited - if you are interested in some more turning ability .....
- not sure about the Globe Liner - but make sure the drag link is behind the axel not in front - this helps a bunch

then for more actual pivot ....

take a coarse hand file or a dremel and cut away some of the inside of the yoke on the front axel - this will allow the hub carriers to pivot more.

Then take and make a drag link between the two side that was a bit of a bend at each end - helps clear the U-Bolts at the springs.


Next - use a standard servo horn with a little more length

Depending on the drag link you may find the shock hanger binding up the last little bit - i ussually just clip off the outside and only run the inner.

Can gain a good bit for ya.......
