No, slippery ground and centerdiff worked against wheelys.

I will see what flextec has to say, but if they can't or don't want to give me a replacementpart, I'll try my best on bending it back.

Surely not as pretty as the one I paid in the first place...

Good one!



Anyways, goldenhorizons alu-steering is on it's way.
I'm looking for a stronger servo, because the steering feels slow and unprecise. Hitec HS 5955 TG any good? I could get one of those cheap, that's why I'm asking.
And I think I'm going to swap the Schulze 18.97KW for a mamba monster (never thought that day would come, but the long time it takes the ESC to switch to reverse is really annoying...), switch to a lower kv motor (any suggestions?) and up the cells to 6S.

And I have to change something in terms of the centerdiff, it prevents the truck from flipping on the roof under accelerating and breaking, which is fine.
But still, if I accelerate hard, the rear wheels start to drift left or right until the car spins in tiny circles. Something totally unlogical to me because I think if there is too much power going to the back, the front should lift, the power should go to the front, go wasted and the rear should stay straight...
Thinking about a gyro

edit: One of these any good?
