RC Suspension Tuning Guide – Axle, Inline

RC Tuning - Inline Axle

What is an Inline Axle?
Inline Axles denote the axle placement inline with the kingpin. This is usually an optional steering setup and requires the use of a different Axles (in most cases) and different steering blocks.

This setup is common in 4WD Touring Cars and usually optional in Offroad cars.

Tuning with Inline Axle
The Inline Axle setup provides quicker initial steering movement, a very aggressive steering response with more corner-entry steering.

There is no real adjustment other than changing to a Trailing Axle.
