Question Spinning out?

I notice that whenever I drive my AWD it will spin out when I turn to the left. It turns right no problem. Is this common? What can I do to fix it?

Gen 1 or Evo?

Both chassis are known to do this. You could fix it by centering your servo. For the Gen 1, you can take the steering horn off and turn both the car and transmitter on, let it center. Put the horn carefully back on and see if it's any better then. Not sure about the Evo with this.

Edit: Whoops, didn't see this under the Mini-Z section. You can probably still try and center the servo or something, I'm lacking knowledge in this area so I'll let someone else take over.

It is centered. The car drives straight, just over turns to the left. I've tried turning the trim down, but it doesn't really help too much

Make sure the front diff isn't locked up or too loose... these two will result in a car to not track straight.

The car tracks straight no problem. It just spins out to the left. It makes it a little difficult to drift to the left then the right
