RC Tuning Guide

To get the most from your RC vehicle, you should know a
few things about vehicle tuning. Most RC vehicles have a
TON of tuning adjustments available on them, but it’s what
each adjustment does that is the big mystery. If you can
master the tuning, you can make your car work at any
track and on any surface.
CompetitionX has compiled a list of the tuning options on
most RC cars. While the process of adjusting the tuning
feature might differ slightly from vehicle to vehicle, the
actual tuning function will still be the same.
PLEASE NOTE: It is a good idea to write down the setup
that comes with the car. If you decide to get adventurous
and start making changes, you could end up with an ill-handling vehicle. Having the original setup will
provide you a ‘back-up’ point. If you need one, you can head on over to the CompetitionX Blank Setup
Sheet section and download a copy.
