you can cut back the steering throw a little bit and it will eliminate some of it , usually does it on full lock.

Rear lower outer hinge pins
 
Any ideas on how to properly secure these rear lower outer hinge pins ?

http://www.wolfhobbies.com/56094266.jpg

What I don't like about ready assembled kit is the fact that most set screws are too tightened and loose there effectiveness. My kit is brand new (E4 FS-C1) and I have this problem.

A captured type hinge pin would be nice if it exist !

what i did on mine i took a small drill bit and drilled a little bit on the hinge pin for the set screw to fit in to prevent it from moving.

Binding up front on steering.
 
Got on my electronics installed and BL motor. With car on bench and power only at 25% whne I turn the front wheels over 40% of maximum throw I start getting a binding (hard vibration) up front. This happens only with the wheels installed . If I take one wheel off (either side) the sound and hard binding goes away.

Up front I have a locked oneway or spool (pin and insert in oneway).

I have the new E4 FSC1 version from Wolf Hobbies.

Anyone had this problem ?

For outdoor, the last weekend a run the 1rd Nationals, and the car work well, but i have very bad luck, i broke 2 belts, 1 battery and a spurl, i finish in 8th in Final A, but i think in this track the car is more fast, i think is possible go to podium, i have some modifications in the setup and the car is more fast, in the last session i run in 19.3 and now i go to 18.9, and constants laps 19.0 - 19.1, but i feel the car need a litle evolution, for now, is not in the level of new 416, 08, MI3, the only change i think the car need, a litle change in the angle of ackerman, some of steering braces with differents longs ¿...?, or simply the steering from FS, i don´t know, for now.

Thanks, doug lemmons, i´m interesting in the changes, i like to testing, and i have some ideas and changes from the setup.

Greetings, Luis C.

Would that be the rib of the rubber tire rim rubbing the lower A-arm or anything of the suspension..? Looks like it must be something between the inside of the rim and the suspension IF there are no problem with THAT side of the tire is off.

Maybe, need more coffee tonite and time to continue checking. It's pretty noisy and jerky. I am thinking something about the CVD's maybe.
