Associated T4 ? - RC-Monster Forums

As most of you know i have a t4 that i conveted to a J82. Im having a little issue ( in my opinion) trying to get the proper adjustment on the steering rod. I have the servo horn adjusted to one spline of center as it says in the manual. But when i make the steering rod the size it shows in the manual & connect it the wheels are pointing two the right. To correct this i adjusted the sub trim on my M8 to try & straighten out the wheels .I have to max out the sub trim to 15 on my radio. Does any one else have the same issue ?. Does any know in MM's how long the link should be ?. Thank's

I've got a couple T4s. If you're truly only one spline off center, just lengthen the link a little. The manual is a guideline and cannot account for every situation.

Yep, if they want the horn off center, just adjust the linkage to the length need to center the wheels. Is there a specific reason they want the horn off center? Geometry purpose?

Thats what i did . Yes i think it is one spline off center. I tried to center the horn & you can not get it dead center. it's either one spline off to the right or one spline to the left. JAMES that would be my guess .

Sounds like the problem I have with most tamiya kits. Usually I have enough trim adjustment to get it centered via the radio.

You should be able to adjust the trim, then the subtrim. I had to do this when I had my T4's, but was easily remedied with trim. You're using an M8, right? You should be able to use the little trim buttons to get it darn close before having to go into the subtrim menu to fine tune it.
