Default No more "kiting" the front end on this Slash
Decided to do something about the kiting problem in windy conditions. Old Xtm body was used. HPI 10th scale road wing. Mount for the wing is a old broken reat Slash body mount.

Except now you can't race it in any class. Not a bad job but if that's the look you're going for definitely do the backslash and get a bigger wing.

When I checked out the vid's of the backslash I noticed that the front end was still high off the jumps. I thought the 8th scale buggy wing was the cause, and the 10th scale wing corrects this habit.
