I haven’t gotten To play with that much yet only one time and I broke it it snapped the drive shaft So it sat for a couple years and I’m getting it up and going again the only issue I’m having right now is it my servo won’t turn my front wheels right and left I tried another servo in it I did the same thing. If I lift the car off the ground it turns the tires fine when I said it back down on the ground it won’t turn them I hear the Servo gears turning and I see the arm trying to move but it’s like it’s weak is the other servo I tried did the same thing are the tires to big. Thanks and Merry Christmas

does it have to have those Giant meats on it. do you have a smaller set of rims/TIRES?. try those or use a way more Torque servo.seen a guy setup a hv servo with a 2 cell directly powering it B4...what the rates on underpowered tried servo?
