Looks nice!

One thing I did to get rid of a similar problem in my large scale 4wd was to reduce the preload on the front springs to soften them and keep the front tires on the ground. I see the same thing in your video - under hard acceleration one of the front tires lifts off the ground (from the torque) and you turn or spin out. Softer front springs (or lowering the front) should help.

The other thing I did was to put lower weight oil in my rear diff - that seemed to help my problem some as well.

I found that having this much BL power in something this heavy made it much more necessary to tune my setup for good performance (I never had to worry much about this stuff in my 1/8 bashing vehicles). I was able to dial mine in and it handles great now. Wish you luck.
