Honestly, I would suggest at least giving some setup changes a try first before getting rid of the vehicle, heck, ANY VEHICLE if you have only tried it for 10 minutes.
When I ran my Tekno EB48 V1 indoors big track with very slick conditions, extreme cold temperatures it was a real pain to drive. rear end was not confident at all. After playing with a few settings and finally in desperation going down to 2K diff fluid in the rear, it was planted, and this was with tires that were NOT the ideal ones for the track.
If I had the new 1.5+ block in the rear at the time I probably would have tried more toe.
Now, I am not saying what I did would be your solution, but there are great people here who may have advise that can help you. I would suggest in my opinion giving that a shot first before writing this vehicle or any other off that quickly.
You are so right brother and your words and definitely wise. But I already received the car all tuned in and dialed toe, camber, oils and I adjusted ride height as needed for the surface. So with that being said, I was still very un impressed and highly doubt that anymore changes could make it night and day. The thing is the set up changes could go on all day, but the car platform and dynamics are what they are no matter what. This is why I wont drive a car that feels like a 10 scale- only on tight indoor track. But I only run on bigger outdoor tracks or street. I highly credit Tekno and they are HUGE for RC and I know the guys on here can offer so much help. Everyone is much appreciated. Without them, my rcing wouldnt exist. I gotta say the truggy looks to be a boat load of fun
