Part of that is the physics of the motor, it's running in reverse to the normal direction. In normal (rear position) the rotation of the rotor is torquing the motor can and tranny down, causing wheelies. The same thing is happening when you tap the brakes or goose the throttle to adjust for a landing in mid-air. In candymans setup the motor can and tranny is twisting down as well, But due to reversed wires and position the torque is pushing down on the front, not the rear. This is the reason why the X-factory X-6/60 cars have a 4 gear transmission, to bring back the proper rotation to control jumps and help plant the rear for max traction


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
