A computer-controlled scale system is very helpful for the perfect tuning of your car on any race track. The Corner Weight System with Bluetooth function from SKYRC can help to achieve exactly this goal.

The system measures the weight pressing on the ground on each individual axle of the vehicle. It therefore reflects the weight distribution of the car on each wheel fairly accurately and allows it to be optimized and adjusted by making small changes. This gives you a decisive advantage the next time you take to the track.

A well-balanced chassis is easier and quicker to move than a chassis where the wheel loads do not match. The car will then behave differently in left-hand bends than in right-hand bends, for example.

Wheel load scales (also known as "corner weight scales") offer clear advantages in RC car modeling, especially if you want to get the maximum out of handling and performance. Here are the most important advantages they offer:

1. Optimum weight distribution
   You can check exactly how the weight is distributed over the four wheels. A balanced distribution improves vehicle balance - both when accelerating, braking and cornering.

2. Fine-tuning the suspension geometry
   With a wheel load balance, you can immediately recognize if the chassis is warped or the suspension is not properly adjusted (e.g. unequal damper lengths or preloads). This helps you to make targeted adjustments to the suspension settings.

3. Increasing cornering stability and traction
   An even left/right distribution (so-called "cross weight") ensures that the car reacts similarly in left and right-hand bends - it drives more neutrally, with less understeer or oversteer.

4. Repeatable settings
   If you drive on different tracks or in different conditions, you can reproduce your setups exactly with recorded wheel load values.

5. Better lap times and consistency
   An optimally balanced RC car can be controlled more precisely, which leads directly to faster and more consistent lap times - a clear advantage in competition.

6. Recognizing imbalances through components
   Especially with models with one-sided drive components (motor, battery, etc.), you can take targeted countermeasures and compensate by positioning weights or adjusting the preload, for example.

In short: If you are serious about competition or precision riding, you will benefit enormously from a wheel load scale - it makes invisible problems visible and allows you to take your setup to a whole new level.
