| Body size question
Trying to figure out how to convert .3 of a inch. If a body has a wheel base of 12.3 how much is the .3? Thanks for any help. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk |

I usually bring it down to .25, aka 1/4" I personally cannot tell the differance between 12.25, and 12.3.

Just remember, in RC, things are not "scale". they are "scale-ish". Trying to do the exact math for something to match up on a 1/10-scale body/build is more or less an exercise in frustration. The best bet is to put a ruler on the part and get the particular measurement you are wanting.

Yea i was just asking because i was trying to figure out how much difference there is in a 12 inch wheel base and a 12.3 I have a original scx10 G6 and it has a 12 inch wheel base most bodies i see and like have a 12.3 just curious if it is a noticable difference where i'd want to change the links so the axles don't look out of place. Thanks guy's. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk |

| Re: Body size question Typically Its best to adjust the rear only so you aren't messing up the steering geometry on the front end.
