Limiting Maximum Steering Wheel Movement
The maximum right and left movement of the steering wheel can be adjusted to suit your taste. You can then you can use the VR
Adjustment function to set maximum steering servo travel.
1) Remove the black steering wheel
grip from the steering wheel by
firmly pulling it straight off.
2) Adjust the maximum steering wheel movement, using a 1.5 mm hex wrench. To limit
steering wheel movement, tighten both grub screws equally to suit. To maximize steering
wheel movement, loosen both grub screws to suit.
3) Press the Function key to highlight the VR-ADJ menu.
4) After adjusting the grub screws, verify that the Calibration number in
the center of the bar graph is the same when the steering wheel is
turned in both directions. For example, if you turn the steering wheel
to the left and the Calibration number is 50, then you turn the steering
wheel to the right and the Calibration number is 75, you should tighten
the right-side grub screw until the Calibration number is 50 when the
steering wheel is turned to the right.
Making sure that the Calibration numbers are equal for both directions of steering wheel movement will ensure that the
steering wheel is physically moving the same amount in both directions.
5) Repeat steps 2-6 on the previous page to calibrate both the steering
servo travel and the throttle servo travel. This will ensure that the
steering servo will travel 100% in both directions, even though the
steering wheel movement is limited.
For the VR ADJUSTMENT Process to EXECUTE without an ERROR message, you MUST calibrate both the steering and
the throttle controls even though you're not making physical changes to the throttle trigger.
If you increase the movement of the steering wheel beyond the
currently programmed VR ADJUSTMENT setting, OVER will be
displayed. In this case, you should repeat steps 2-6 on the previous page
to reset the VR ADJUSTMENT.
Limiting the maximum movement of the steering wheel will increase the sensitivity of the steering. In this situation we
recommend setting negative Exponential to soften the control feel around neutral. See page 21 for more information.
