not sure if its just the way the car is designed but we have experienced the wheelies as well. we both just try and pay attention to the wheels as they lift i lift, not always successfully. its like comparing American muscle cars to European sports cars. a couple of the guys at out track run the 22-4 and their cars seem lightning quick but our cars seem to have more bottom end power.

I'm running the schelle chassis. Which is aluminum and plus 3 but I think I know the issue and will report back once I run the car again.

The Schelle Alum I thought was mainly for High Grip and Astro....
I run the Schelle Carbon fiber stretch and don't have any wheelie issues and our indoor track is Med-High bite when watered.

For you wheelie guys, maybe adjust the ESC so there's less power on the bottom end? Or adjust the throttle expo to make it softer on initial acceleration. You must have crazy power and traction to have a problem with wheelies in this car.

I'm going to go from 3 to 2 on the punch and trying a 7.5 so hoping that fixes it.

I'm having a hard time mounting my transponder. How is everyone mounting theirs? I have seen a few mount it on the servo. Seems like the best place by the wire only just reaches in shorty configuration.
