Oh I will. I'm really only getting 4ws for coolness factor since the truck steers just fine now (probably because I turned up the servo travel on the transmitter)
One other thing I'm noticing is that despite all the "OH NOES! IT'S TEH TOPHEAVY!" complaints I've seen on various forums, it's damn near impossible to flip this truck on my runs,
even when I slam the brakes and turn the wheel suddenly to spin it around at full throttle. The suspension seems to absorb the majority of the centripetal forces that would otherwise make it flip and so the truck leans pretty seriously into turns, straightening up on straightaways.
The flipping issue is something I've only
seen in a video from my hobby shop. But then the TLT they're running has been heavily modified (converted to Nitro) and the center of gravity is significantly higher than on the stock truck.
