Hi all,
I am building my F1 car and after finishing the rear suspension I noticed that I have a height difference between front and back.
I didnt measure it but i believe the difference is around 10mm.
How do I solve this? Can someone measure the heightdifference on his car?
Thx

The pack 14 download contains information about how to adjust the ground height of the model.

It only mentioned the Left rear wheel. No information about height setting. In stage 54 its the setup of the rear suspensio, but nothing about height setup. I measured the difference in height FR:5mm from ground, RR: 20mm from ground thx

You need to look at pages 229 - 223 of the pack 14 download, which is titled "Adjusting ground clearance"

If you obtain your RB7 via Germany, then it is likley the information is provided at the same point as the Australian build, which is within issue 37, pages 7-10 titled "Adjusting ground clearance".
The UK download has the same information for UK customers but at a much later point.

Tomick, I read up (in issue 37) about adjusting the front ride height of the car. It says about adding spacers. Will these be provided at some stage or is a trip to the RC shop required? As far as I can tell the front end is way to low to be usable at the moment. Building: RB7 Nitro / Senna MP4/4 Finished: McLaren MP4/23
Brad.

I've not yet seen any shock spacers provided as yet, but they can be purchased via eBay or a good R/C car store and generally sold in sets of varing widths.

We only have one rear wheel delivered which has yet to be fitted. I would not make any adjustemnt until the content has been delivered.
