Weight Distribution on Rustler

[videoholic]

What are you guys doing on the Nitro Rustler to better the weight distribution?

I read somewhere about putting the receiver in the front rather than the back? Are people also adding weights up front or anything? Anyone have any pics of what they've done?

This car just loves to do wheelies.. I just bought it and it's my first venture into the Nitro World. I want to take it over to a track in town this week to see how it jumps. Just seems like it's going to not land flat.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

put the battery pack up front that will help alot. also regearing higher will take away alot of the wheelies and give you more top end.

Yeah, try sticking the battery pack up front near the shock tower or something (been a little while since i have worked on a N/R).

FYI: The rustler doesn't hold up well to bad landings. Be careful, or you'll be finding yourself more aquainted with your LHS.
