Bad jumping attitude — nose-up or nose-down in the air
The car leaves ramps nose-high or nose-low and lands badly.
💡 The idea: Balance the chassis and use throttle/brake in the air to level it.
Try these in order
Make one change at a time and re-test — that's how you learn what your car likes.
-
1
In the air: blip throttle to bring the nose UP, tap brake to bring the nose DOWN
Driving input controls attitude on most electric 2WD/4WD.
-
2
Balance front/rear droop
Even droop gives a neutral launch off the lip.
-
3
Match front/rear spring & oil balance
Uneven ends kick the car nose-up or -down off the jump face.
-
4
Centre the weight bias
Big forward/rear bias tips the launch attitude.
