Lowering the hinge pin makes the chassis roll more which will give the car more steering mid corner to exit, but it also takes some of the initial steering away and makes it smoother. Raising the hinge pin makes more initial steering and less in the middle of the corner. Raising the front (ff) only of the hinge pin increases kick up and gives more off power steering and less on power steering. One of the cool things this car has is that you can adjust front arm sweep by spacing the hinge pin holders differently on the front of the car. Sweeping the arms forward will give you more initial steering and less coming out, and sweeping the arms back has the opposite effect, this is something that I would suggest everyone play with, it is a really cool tuning option that we have.

I've kind of always wondered, not having looked at the pro2 closely, what is the difference between the pro2 and the pro4 at a technical level, and on how it performs? I know the 2/4 is the marketing designation for what vehicle it is designed for, and what size shaft comes out of it is different, but that's not really helpful in the way I generally think of things.

After having a Tekin charger back in the 90s and an RS Pro some years ago, I'd love to go Tekin again, but distribution in Germany nowadays seems to be focused on 8th scale stuff only. The RSX is way overpriced hereabouts at 245 euros (around USD 340), while even relatively expensive ESCs like Team Orion are available at around 160 euros. Tekin Pro2 motors are not avalable at all...

comparing with regular 12.3-12.5mm rotor in normal cars.

Raising and lowering the front hinge pin equally changes the roll center.
Lowering the hinge pin makes the chassis roll more which will give the car more steering mid corner to exit, but it also takes some of the initial steering away and makes it smoother. Raising the hinge pin makes more initial steering and less in the middle of the corner. Raising the front (ff) only of the hinge pin increases kick up and gives more off power steering and less on power steering. One of the cool things this car has is that you can adjust front arm sweep by spacing the hinge pin holders differently on the front of the car. Sweeping the arms forward will give you more initial steering and less coming out, and sweeping the arms back has the opposite effect, this is something that I would suggest everyone play with, it is a really cool tuning option that we have.

Im running your OCRC low bite setup. The question that I have is i dont have an extra set of 2 dot holders and you use 2 dot FF and 2 Dot FR What would you recommend i try out. I run on a hard pack low bite surface.
