Default HL M1A2 tracking

My HL M1A2 pulls to the left when going foward. Is there any way to correct this.

Have you tried Steering to the right, I think that should do.[sm=lol.gif]


Sorry, I Couldn't resist. Not knowing the tank at all I would suggest spinning the wheels by hand and see if one is causing alot of resistance compared to the others. Is there any trim on your controller?

My HL Panther does the same thing. The controller doesn't have any trim, and all the wheels spin freely. Maybe one motor inside the tank spins slightly more rpm than the other.

change the track from left to right...swap sides..

that might help you out with your problem or it might be time to replace the gearbox.
