Could you post pics of your chassis?

What, if anything have you done to it to lighten it up?

Are you running gear or ball diff, a spool?

What battery are you running?

Thanks. Your post gives me hope it can be done.

Picked one of these up on black Friday but haven't built it yet. Should I run a spool in the front? It'll be on medium to low grip asphalt.

You mean diff outdrives or spool?

Diff, I use the 419 aluminum outdrives, spool, I'm using the TA06 lightweight steel. I heard the ARC aluminum spool outdrives will work too. I have some in the way to check out when I get back from a work trip.

Default Ta07 issues

My Ta07 always oversteers on power so I made a bunch of changes without a resolution. Today I decided to run in in front of the house and noticed violent vibrations when turning the wheel in both directions. It does it on the bench too. Not sure what the problem is.. here is a YouTube video of it...

Any ideas.. I tried different wheels and still does it. It won't do it without wheels...

that's normal with the cvd...you need to get the DCJ the will solve the problem or reduce the steering throw.

It's also not likely to be the cause of the on power oversteer.
