Can anyone who knows the RC18 series tell me if it's possible to reduce the speed on this thing? Unlike so many others, I am not looking for extreme speed. I just want to be able to use the car and not lose control of it! I know some cars/transmitters have a "training mode" that keeps the speeds low until you turn it back to standard driving mode. So far, I've not seen that feature on mine.

Any input about my options would be appreciated.

Not sure if you can do it on the stock transmitter but if there is anything like an "EXPO" setting for the throttle then turn that down, limiting the throttle signal travel.

Other than that maybe a physical limiter on the trigger?
