| NAS - No Ackermann Steering
I have modded stock steering geometry in order to have Ackermann angle set to 0° As you can see in the stock geometry the Ackermann angle is exactly in the opposite value that then should be. The best way in order to obtain the right angle is to adopt a BTA...but I can't now because of link and schocks interference, so I've simply adopted this trick to have at least 0° |

Just linked the steering rod with rod ends on the same line of fuselage pin...in this way you have no ackermann angle and wheels steering with the same angle.

no, i understand the idea behind it. i meant hows it working on your rig, do you like it? did you notice any loss in steering strength due to shorter arms?

I'm noticed no steering strenght loss because I use an Hitec 5955TG servo...probably with another servos will be different
