rare earth magnets?
 
What do rare earth magnets do to help steering. How do you put them in? I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help.

They help steering because they are much more magnetic than other magnets and when the electromagnet on each side starts being a magnet( no better way to say it) it will attract more and therefore make your turn way tighter...

to put it in you have to open up your cchassis..(where the pcb is) and under the pcb where the front part is there is a screw unscrew that take out the rod with magnet put in new magnets and put it back together...

ceramic magnets have a gauss rating of 2000ish and rare earth are 12000ish

cool. make sure you glue it in there because they tend to come off center.
