Countersteer Ratio: 1
The MST MS-01D Pro chassis kit is new to the market and we finally got our hands on one. First seen as the Spice RC, it turns out that MST is the original manufacturer and designer of this chassis. MST has done a great job bringing new innovative design to the RC drift chassis. With many unique designs, MST is bound to be a great impact on the RC community. We chose to go with the out of box setup of this chassis. The drive train is setup in a 50/50 fashion, equal drive ratio front and rear. The settings used for the initial test drive of the chassis are the recommendations right out of the book with the exception of the front camber. The rear camber was adjusted it so that it would wear evenly along the 3 degrees of camber included with the tire. Suspension mounts and castor angles are all stock. Maximum steering angle is restricted by a small additional piece on the lower front suspension arm, but it can easily be removed for more steering. All settings were measure with an analog caliper for best accuracy.
