Takashima D-13 multi functional TC set up system

Takashima D-13 have released this multi functional set up system for 1/10 touring. The set allows the user to check the camber of their car, check the car’s balance and even allows you to assemble your car tweak free. All made from carbon to keep things lightweight, the camber gauge can check 1, 1.5, 2 and 2.5 degrees. The gauges do triple duty as they are used alongside the carbon tweak rod to press down on the top deck during assembly and they are also used to support the tweak rod when in the balance mode. The rod is pushed through two adjustable carbon brackets which in turn are attached to the car’s shock tower and when hanging freely you can see the car’s balance and adjust accordingly.
