Default reverse ?

Anyone have any thoughts on adding the reverse module? Does it work okay? Any glitches to it? Thanks

Works fine,just make sure you check the linkages before you start her up. Make sure the servo is centred properly and the little bits of fuel line on the linkage doesn't bind.

i never thought i would like it but a few weeks ago i got one and love it.
word of caution........be at a complete stop when you shift or you will break the gear that actually switches it from forward to reverse. and that one little gear can't be bought on its own, yep gotta buy the gear set 35$$.
also should say that when you do shift it just blip the throtle slightly to make sure it's firmly in gear before you give it full throtle.
all that said it is alot of fun because now i am more willing to drive it places knowing that i can just back out if i need to.

Thanks for the replies you guys. I really appreciate it. I have 2 Ofna's and a Losi and pretty much know who to build and run R/C's but just trying to learn the nuances to the mighty Savage.
