But there is some hope. ABC makes their universals (optional) for their mini size cars in .5mm increments so you can get longer driveshafts (I think it's only the dogbone that is different). They are...

Your picture doesn't agree with your description of the track.

That is not a sweeper (that track doesn't have one it seems), but a hair pin.

What you experience is liftoff oversteer (if you...

That is a minuscule difference, easily accounted for by considering the classic Tamiya slop.

Leaving aside obvious things such as tire wear, surface, etc.

If you really want to find where the...

Primarily you can have the horn parallel to the servo and still be at zero trim. But you knew that, right?

Basic geometry principles dictate the horn needs to be perpendicular to the rod to give...

The shock bladders are compressible, unfortunately.

The other question nobody asked was are these "universals" you talk of in fact dogbones? If yes, you need to use some foam in the wheel axle as...

Hence the problem.

The system works as long as the screw holes don't wear either, which can't be long if you keep adjusting the diff. You probably didn't adjust the diff much, but I've had those...

I would try first a belleville washer there between the sun gear and the stock washer. Tuning with the clamping force of the three screws that go into the plastic housing is inviting trouble.

Tamiya never had good ball cups/balljoints.

Until the TRF 418, that is.

For the 418 they finally took the trouble (could speculate because factory drivers had a hard time tuning the car) to...

That's probably because either your radio or the servo (or both) is crap (by design or use).

To take out the play you need to address the ballcup/balljoint slop, the bearing play, the axle play...

The rear end of the M06 is a maze of bits and pieces and a ton of screws, the middle is sacrificed to put the battery lengthwise, the front again overcomplicated.

M04 is too long.

I have no racing experience with my M06 (not allowed here) but I would say you're not far from truth. However, I would place the accent elsewhere. I think the M06, like many of Tamiya's forays into...

That is easily checked by changing the offending/suspected wheel.

But I would agree with the above.
In fact, I would check suspension and steering geometry first (if there wasn't some obvious...

Well, what can I say? I found the correct servo setup in a number of manuals. The one I linked above is form an M01/02 manual, but from foggy memory the explanation is present in the Durga manual,...

Yeah, the irony.

As a moderator I think you should be more careful. You chastised me for some pretty benign posts (I called some people Tamiya fanboys - which they gladly admit they are) without...

Ha! Fundamentals, eh?

There's no need for any discussion about servo horns if you find an old Tamiya manual (be it on the net) but you need to look.

Why avoid the Tamiya hop up steering?

My personal experience with these aftermarket companies has been a mixed bag, so I tend to go Tamiya.
