Setup gauge essentials - height and droop

This R/C-scale setup gauge is made to help model drivers record ride height and suspension droop so they can determine rebound values during setup sessions. The tool targets standard touring car chassis and gives a straightforward way to compare front and rear measurements without changing the car's baseline configuration.

To use the gauge, place it under the chassis at the wheel reference points to read ground clearance, then measure droop with the wheel unloaded while following your usual setup routine. The readings are intended to guide suspension tweaks, spring swaps, and ride height adjustments rather than act as a single tuning prescription.

Compatibility is limited to applications described as standard touring car chassis; it is not designed for non-R/C vehicles or for chassis types outside that classification. Treat the gauge as a measurement aid that complements regular setup checks and logged data.

By providing consistent ride height and droop figures, the gauge lets you compare corner-to-corner differences and derive rebound targets based on how much travel the suspension loses under load versus unloaded.
It is intended for use with standard touring car chassis as described in the product information and is not specified for other vehicle classes.
Place the gauge at the designated wheel reference points to record ground clearance, then lift the wheel to take an unloaded droop reading; use the two values to assess corner balance and rebound behavior.
