Does your ascender have this on the hub?

It is the limit of my steering and it doesn't turn as sharp as my scx10 ii and they should be about the same.
If you do or did have it, did you shave it off?

I haven’t touched the plastic end stops, still got them. Biggest limiting factor on the RTR ascenders is the servos lack of travel, even after setting the end points to max and the short plastic servo horn.

I agree with yeti on that. Changing the servo really helps. Even with the stock servo horn it will turn more just changing the servo.

I have a savox in there

What servo horn are you using? I still couldn’t get full steering until I added a longer servo horn.

In your picture it looks like the hub is not making contact with the little plastic bump stop. I’m pretty sure mine has got rub marks on it from making contact.

Mine does hit those, which is why I was asking if everyone had them cuz that's the limit in my steering. My scx10 ii turns quite a bit tighter and it's surprising to me

X2.

I just checked several sets of plastic chubs and knuckles, same as yours with steering stops. Checked couple sets of Vaterra aluminum knuckles and they have steering stops only on front, but this works to stop steering in both directions.

My trucks turn until stock tires just rub lower suspension links, great steering, but SCX10ii may technically have a tiny bit more. I’ve never lacked for steering while crawling with my Ascenders, you’ll notice in your picture that it appears that yout cvds are getting full steering as verified by light rub marks from outer bell against inner axle. Axial u-joint types can be ground for more clearance, but at some point it starts binding the drive train. Turn full lock with truck upside down and watch the wheels and drivelines as you give it light forward throttle, you’ll see it. FYI newer Ascender CVDs are beefed up at the end and lose a couple degrees steering, but the increased strength is very worthwhile.
