What?! No love for the $800 Longacre RC corner weight scales???
I got the SkyRC scale set. Not for the off road buggy but I'll use it on them. On road cars would be more sensitive to this set up as most off road tracks are too bumpy to make a real difference. Yeah, there are cheaper option s but this way you eliminate the possibility of math errors by you. I just wish it also did cross weights. But hey, what do you expect for $75?

In you picture I see each corner, front axle, rear axle, left side, right side, and total. I don't see LF+RR and RF+LR.
Edit: I see it now. I'll have to check mine, and get my eyes checked (might be part of my driving problem...blind)

Okay, I'm blind. Just checked mine. It does cross. I thought those were left and right side weights.

Doing corner scales... If you doing it to see where to add weight you should replace shocks with "turnbuckles" to eliminate any imbalance in springs. Once you have that done put shocks back and adjust collars.
You would be surprised how off springs can be from one to another even being same color.
