Default YZ2 build issue

i'm almost finished building the YZ2 but now I have a problem with the steering.

With the servo horn centered the steering is to the right.
tried lots of things but can't find the problem.
The only solution is to make the steering link +8mm longer but this can't be correct??

here are a few pics

I had this issue too, just simply make a longer link with rod linkage. Mine has a gap of about 1.5-2mm between each rod end.

Yes manual shows horn a few spline clicks to the left at neutral position, not fully vertical, with the link fully screwed in. To get full lock both ways I needed to lengthen the link about 2-3mm. With a bit of setup and adjustment you can get it perfect with full lock both ways.

Mine doesn't sit vertical and if it did I think you'll find it'll be hitting the inside of the upper bulkhead before you get full left lock. I've checked.

Definitely not a build issue but on mine the rear front pivot block hasn't been chamfered of the edges so it's plain boring matt black.

I had no issue's in the build.

Keep in mind that when you lengthen the steering arm you also change the throw left and right.

Mine did not hit the bulkhead. i build it as per kit spec. Pay attention you use the correct amount of spacers suited for your servo.

i needed 2 mm on the servo (PowerHD). I can see that if you would use too much spacers on a certain servo the arm will hit the bulkhead.

Same as above no problems, on savox with 1 spacer, servo horn centred 2 notches to the left, fully screwed in arm and loads of space each way on full lock.
