RC Cheat Sheets: Roll Center
Lowering Roll Center: more washers under ballstud, lower rear inner pin, for high-traction tracks, leans more when cornering.
Raising Roll Center: fewer washers under ballstud, higher rear inner pin, for low-traction tracks.
The roll centers for a chassis are defined by the suspensions' geometry. Roll centers are effectively positions in space (see drawing) that the suspension will "roll around." The roll center height can be adjusted by changing the angle of the suspension arm, camber link, or both. Typically, this is done by changing the height of the inner positions of these members (the inner pin for suspension arm, and inner ballstud for camber link). (Click through to learn more -- lots of line drawings to explain everything.)
