I have a Bitty Designs body on mine. I did have to clearance it a bit for the corner of a 4 cell, of if I stagger the 2 2cells backwards, I do not have to (outside battery is shifted to the back of the car).

Thanks.
Using a KO RSX Power I do not get much flex now that my EPA is set correctly. Are you possibly getting any rubbing from the servo horn? Other thing to check is that the ackerman bar screws are not too tight and binding. I did that once and the servo was fighting against that. Remove the linkage and make sure the steering is free left to right without the servo in the mix.
