|  Gmade R1 body tilts to left when accelerating
Hello guys, This is my first post and I have recently finished building the kit. I realized that the R1 body tilts to one side when it's moving and I was wondering if you guys have an idea on how to reduce the tilt. I will post some pictures when I get home. Thanks!  |

If the front tire is lifting it's called torque twist, mine love to do that Hang up and Drive |

If you reverse it should lean the other way.

You can get slightly stiffer springs or maybe thicker oil. Possibly swap out the plungers/discs in the shock itself to increase dampening. Or swap out shocks. Have a look see through the subforum and see what others are running. |

Unfortunately it's got rather mushy suspension and torque twist hits the R1 hard. You could try stiffening the springs up but what does that really help? I honestly don't drive mine on flat ground enough to ever notice the torque twist.

Torque twist for sure. It used to bother me, but it has never affected my crawling and now I hardly notice it.
