After a few months of not running and bashing around for a couple of reasons, I've finally came back full force into R/C. So far, I've gotton my old storm back, along with a Revo, Jato, and a nitro RS4 evo3.

I'm not too familiar with the Jato, so what are the trouble spots on it before I start to break her in. It's the 2.5, not the 3.3.

Up your nose with a rubber hose....

The weak points on the jato are the entire front end. It isn't beefy enough to take any abuse. Just landing from an average jump can cause massive damage.

I'd recommend at least replacing the arms with the RPM replacements and the hinge pins with some Lunsford Racing titanium.
 
Also I heard that driving it on any flaty surface 'its like diriving on marbals' said my lhs.
 
Thanks for the responses. Does anyone know if the anaconda tires are any better. I'm not planning on jumping this one, just running it in a flat parking lot and the street.
 
If your just taking it on the street the Anaconda tires are great...I had a 3.3 Jato with those tires, good grip on the street, almost non existent off the street.
