Default Steering confusion

So I set my "pitman arm" on so that tires are straight at idle (middle) and on zero trim my wraith turns very sharp left and only somewhat sharp right. Any ideas?

Wraith kit
VP OMF 2.2 w/ RipSaws
VP scale chubs/knuckles
VP CMS w/ VP Panhard
STRC Aluminum Steering Linkage
HH High Torque Servo
Fatuba 3PL w/ 4ch Rx

Pics after I get home

Take off the servo arm...set steering trim in the middle, center tires and re-attatch the servo arm. You will still need to adjust the steering trim to make it perfect.

Make sure your servo horn/steering tie rod isnt hitting the front bumper , I noticed when I swapped my cms to my poison spider wraith I was hitting because the tie rod was on the front side of the servo horn instead of the rear.

Trim helps you set center, setting your end points will help you make sure you are getting full and equal swing each direction.

U don't. That radio only has duel rate. Remove servo, set your st. Trim to center, point tires straight, replace servo horn ( horn should be 90degree to the servo body) and adjust dual rate till you hit the stoppers and back off 1/4 turn. You should be set.
