Good point, I may do that.

Meanwhile, I must have some steering-related curse. First actual run with the car and I broke the steering assembly and drag link, plus lost a ball end. At least the...

I finally got the TC4 together, which took a lot longer than I expected not because it's a difficult build, but because I kept running into small problems resulting in lots of $5 Amazon orders. This...

I've got the TC4 in my possession but I've had no time to get it setup. First impression is it's a much higher-end chassis. There is ZERO slop in the suspension and steering. I did have one shock...

I really appreciate the comments. The thing is I've already got CVDs and have run the car both with the stock Flux slicks as well as standard 26mm TC tires. The same problem exists either way.

Well I don't know what to make of that. I just installed the same servo and while it's better, the steering still noticeably wanders. I have been through the steering linkage probably five times now....

Thanks very much again. The steering rack moves smoothly, so no issues there. I suspect you're right about the HPI servo so I'm going to do some more testing focusing on that. By time I get this...

Can you confirm if that specific Savox servo fits in the Sport 3? It seems a little bigger than the HPI, which is already tight.

This is HPI's strongest servo, the SF-50WP. The stock servo did the same thing which is what prompted an upgrade.

I just checked the voltage the receiver is sending to the servo, and it's 6V as...

There are certainly some good qualities about the car, primarily the sealed drivetrain. But while having the ability to upgrade is great, you shouldn't need to do so out of the box. There are some...

Turning off the low-voltage protection on the ESC seems to have fixed this.

Anyone know if there is a workable aluminum replacement for the front upright set? (113708)

Just installed the SF50-WP servo today, and it is definitely not a direct replacement. I'm guessing you didn't go with the WP version but the case itself is about 1.5mm wider than the stock servo,...

I can only compare it to an RS4 Pro 3 Nitro, and I'd say the Flux and the Nitro handle pretty similarly on the same tires. I personally do not like the stock oversize slicks on the Flux; standard...
