The Ackerman function allows you to change the Steering Angle of the front tires independently to prevent the tires from slipping
during turns. Being able to change the Ackerman Angle can help improve your model's high-speed cornering and improve tire
wear. In general, your model will corner better if the inner tire turns in at a sharper angle than the outer tire. The Ackerman function
allows you reduce the turn-in angle of the outer tire, which increases the turn-in angle of the inner tire relative to it. In addition, the
Ackerman function allows you to adjust the Toe Angle of each tire independently.
Ackerman Programming Values can be changed while you're driving by Assigning these functions to a Trim Switch, the
Auxiliary Dial or the Auxiliary Lever. For more information, see the ASSIGN Menu section on pages 31 through 40.
The Ackerman function is available only when either Car Type V, VI or VII is selected.
Changing the Toe Angle Values:
The Toe value allows you to change the toe angle of both the right and left tires
independently.Usethisfunctiontomakefine-tunedadjustmentstotheToeAngle
after you've adjusted your model's turnbuckles. The Toe Angle should be adjusted
prior to adjusting the Ackerman Angle.

5) Press the ENTER key, then repeat steps 3 and 4 to change the second Toe
Angle value.
LEFT-ST TOE and RIGHT-ST TOE setting range is L150 to R150. The default
setting for both channels is 0.
Adjusting the Toe Angle Right or Left will shift the Steering End Points Right or Left, too, which could cause the steering
linkage to bind or exceed the maximum desired Steering Angle. To prevent this, we suggest readjusting the Steering End
Points after changing the Toe Angle values. For more information, see the EPA Menu section on pages 67 and 68.
Changing the Ackerman Angle Percentage Values:
1) FromwithintheACKERmenu,scrollUPorDOWNtohighlighttheAckerman
Angle percentage value you would like change. Choose from either LEFT-ST
(Left Steering) Left or Right, or RIGHT-ST (Right Steering) Left or Right.
2) Press the ENTER key, then scroll UP or DOWN to choose the desired
Ackerman Angle percentage value. Reducing the Ackerman Angle percentage
value will reduce the amount of control throw in that the direction for that
specific servo.
3) Press the ENTER key, then repeat steps 1 and 2 to change any other desired
Ackerman Angle percentage values.
LEFT-ST L and R and RIGHT-ST L and R setting range is 0% to 100%. The default setting for both channels is 100%.
