Carpet is very different than dirt tracks. Even modern “dirt” tracks for 1/10 in the US are very different than they were back in the 80s. “Feeling loose and difficult to control” probably needs a bit more detail. Generally a car will feel looser on real dirt tracks as it fights for grip. Carpet is such high traction it’s not typical for the car to feel loose, but often the opposite as twitchy. Twitchy can be difficult to control and cause you to over control the car causing traction rolls. The difference of on and off-power steering is very different for carpet than on lower grip surfaces for 2WD. So where are you feeling the difficulty with your car?

I am currently using a Fly Sky nb4 controller . Wondering if adding a thicker sway bar will help? Thanks
