EN AVC TUNING A value from 0 to 100 is used for three settings that affect tuning; steering gain, throttle gain, and priority. These values configure the receiver to your vehicle so you can tune it for optimal performance based on your driving style. It is normal for gain and priority tuning results to vary. WHAT IS GAIN? A gain value of 0 will result in zero electronic corrections, and a gain of 100 will result in large corrections in an effort to hold a straight line.
