jeez,that 201 looks huuuuge. i am new to rc f1.i picked up a 103 a few weeks ago and have finally got it up and running. had my second track session today with it. am really enjoying the ddrive style chassis. i have a question tho,i am finding my chassis is rubbing on the ground on right hand turns but not on left.i assume it has something to do with the t plate and suspension setup? could anyone help a noob out and point me in the right direction for syspension set up.
cheers

Check to see if the chassis is tweaked by running a ruler bilaterally across the chassis plate. And by looking at the chassis on an even plain you should be able to see any tweaks in the chassis.

Do you have the ball mount suspension o the fixed o-ring one?

If you have the ball mount, has limiter screws?

Is the side to side movement equal with the body off?

How bout with the body on?

Many times, squeezing the body on puts pressure on motor wires etc.
Can jam the chassis to one side.

Check for free movement, leave the motor wires etc. loose and not tied to the chassis which can restrict pod movement.

She's a little chunky but has a wonderful personality. Especially with the 14t (brushed) that I had in it. The 103R didn't like being treated like that. Naaassty wheelspin.
