Odd wobble on outcast wheels

[Ginjaninja]

Hey guys, just got to put a battery in the new outcast and noticed 3 of the wheels seemed....well, off centre  am I just being paranoid or is it normal? Not set it down on terra firma yet!!!

Normal. Go drive that sucker.

Your foams need to adjust inside your tires and will show flat spots/wonky wobbles.

After 3-4 packs, it's the BEST idea to balance them all.

Just FYI - that particular balance tool isn't big enough for outcast wheels.

Yeah, you're right. He should get the picture tho

It's the one thing that does wonders for a driving experience and only I'd say 5% of RC'ers balance wheels lol.

I balance on road cars but not off road. Am I missing out? What tool do you use to balance larger tires? I have one similar to the one linked above.

If it still rolls forward, I wouldn't give it a second thought.

I have an old Losi balancer that can handle 1/5th but yeah man, if you have balanced tires you can really put a tune on your rig! Makes it such a better feel. Saves parts too, out of balance tires vibrate the whole rig loosening bolts, rounding out high tolerance holes, rounds out hinge pin retainers and a-arms. Unbalanced rigs that have been driven get sloppy loose. Highly recommend balancing every RC tire after a few packs!
