[QUOTE]Originally posted by Anything R/C Its true that the X factor have the 4 link like a real MT. But if you see it in person, it really doesn't look like its a good climber. I played with one with my friend. I have a savage, he has the x. My savage has a 7 inch travel on the suspension, the X only has maybe 5. After 5 inches, the opposite wheel starts to leave the ground too. If you want to climb rocks, you want as many wheels on the ground as you can. The 4 links works well on the real MT because it hardly climbs over uneven rocks. [/QUOTE] The txt-1 has about 12inches of travel stock, the kind of travel where you lift one wheel off the ground and measure it at the point where the next wheel is about to come up. and the Xs' suspension is pretty much the same. The swaybars on the x-factor are probably too stiff. I will get mine this summer and play around with the suspension settings and see what it can do. I got a small coffe can, about 6 inches, of travel out of my monster pirate, it had no more than 3inches when i first got it.
