Rear anti-roll bar
Fitted the new anti-roll bar kit to my car - trying the 3mm one first. I came across a similar problem to the front alu anti-roll bar holders, in that after mounting the new rear kit, the suspension was binding I assumed that the clamp holding the anti-roll bar was a little too tight, so I removed the paint from the anti-roll bar and polished it - no improvement Next I check the ball joints which attach to the end of the bar itself. They also seemed to bind a little in the plastic cup, so I took them out and polished them, too until they moved freely......no improvement!! Then I noticed that the adjusters (the items connecting the bar to the suspension arms) were touching the rear drive shaft I loosened off the retaining screw on the ball joint and moved it along the bar a little (2mm). Now the adjusters no longer touched the drive shafts and the suspension no longer binds
Oh well, you live and learn
Here's a pic before I started polishing the roll bar

Preferably like what Mark mentioned, it'll be easier to get familiar not just with the car but with RC.

Should come in handy when you roll your car
Ive seen couple videos from 3hobby.com and i noticed that most of the drivers use airplane type transmitters.
The question is: why?

So you're saying the RDL ones have too much slop?

I think that flying skill only comes in handy when you hit a kerb at top speed and the car takes off. Then its all these flying experience which determines how many flips one can do and how the car lands!
