Make sure both front wheels are spinning freely and equally. If one or the other doesn't spin free, the car will randomly pull to that side. Take the knuckle apart and clean the lint out of the axle.

try all the above and then glue your wheels back onto the rear axle so they aint spinning freely.

Dirt?

Post by BananaGuy »

Make sure you don't have dirt or magnetic pieces underneath.

You're steering magnet could be off balance. Open up the car and put the magnet back in the center.

Or

You can manually force your tires to one direction while you press the controller the same direction, do that a few times for both sides.
