I had this out again today and it ran well - I'll post a couple videos in a bit. My only concern is that this truck tends to roll over much more easily than my other large-scale build. This has a slightly narrower width, it's center of gravity is a bit higher due to the body, and it has better tires (more grip in the grass) - all of these I'm sure contribute to it rolling over more, so I'm not sure what I'm going to do. The major advantage of this truck over my buggy-style build is that this has more room for batteries.
I could easily make the truck wider by using the full extended wheel hexes (instead of the cut-down hexes I have on this). I'm sure that would help, but I don't know if I'd like how it looked.
Or I could run it w/o the body (but I know some people didn't like how it looked under the body).
If you have any other ideas, let me know.
