Default How to adjust EPA on Slash 4X4 2.4Ghz Controller

Does anyone know how to adjust the EPA with the Slash 4X4 stock 2.4ghz receiver?

I bought this servo.

It's hitting the drive shaft and the side of the inner front brace. Any help be much appreciated.

I don't think that radio has EPA ajustment.
Remove the servo horn.
Turn on the radio and center up the steering trim.
center the wheels on the truck and then put the horn back on. BOOM! Trim it in.

Man that's a bummer it doesn't have a EPA adjustment. I centered the steering as normal, still hits the center shaft. Trim has so much radius it rubs both ends no matter which way I trim it.

The Tx/Rx does do steering EPA. Look on page 30 of the owners manual.

(I couldn't post a link because I do not have enough posts yet).

If the radio has D/R (dual rate) turn it down!

it's in a separate section of the manual at the back thanks loopdog good looking out guys.

A simple basic LCD screen would have been nice but this is not hard.

You could try a revised steering linkage like strc. Should clear it.
