To overcome this, I use one of the threaded inserts that normally goes on the inside as a starting point. With that, I can screw down both the ball stud and a flat head cap screw and it is extra reinforcement. Haven't bent a ball stud since then. (button head screws caused the ball stud to bind)

Since I can't really afford an Exotek chassis yet, I'm going to play with some extra weights around the steering servo to try to get the weight balance closer to 50-50.

Thanks for sharing BlueGlowBoy! I'm sure I'm not the only one benefiting from all the set-ups for old-school type tracks that have been recently posted...


I hear ya on the Exotek chassis! Its a costly upgrade to say the least! As for weight balance on my end, I got to do the best I can with a stick pack configuration. I only have enough saddle packs to race my B44... Anyway, seems like the Exotek chassis is getting to be an indispensible mod upgrade especially for racing in big outdoor 8th Scale type tracks...
