Got my daughter an inferno ST she picked out. Shaved some stop out of radios wheel got some more steering. My 1/8th MBX5 can turn around about the same area with the pivot cups cut out some.You can't use a standard servo & add arm length because they used some lame 4 wire crap on the ESC- REC COMBO-.We saw a couple associated RC18Bs run they were super quick and nimble and had seperate rec. ESC and what looked like you use an upgradable servo.They just had a little whistle to them & a stock rechargeable batt. Hers sounds like alot of gear mesh.I'm sure hopped up the inferno would mash on them but i was dissipointed when i compared the two on the carpet track. The kyosho's batt was 60 upgade @ LHS too"WHAT THE @#$%" got a integy for 18 coming from ebay. SO FAR NOT IMPRESSED DAD .................Anybody got a couple of suggestions we have a reciever for her JR PRO radio but i'm hoping to not sink alot $ right now just set up a MBX5 PROSPECT FOR HER TOO

The best thing to do is get new electronics.

The Inferno series has alot of gear noise, yes. The main problem you are experiencing is in the open center diff though. Try a ball diff in the center, and play around with diff amount's of thick grease in the front and rear diff for the handling you want.

I know if I buy new electronics it would be sweet but you my as well get the new 8000k mamba and with a used MBX5 prospect all set up for her and my RC addiction I'm not ready to drop that kind of funds right now.I set it to about 2 tow out and with the 9.6 bat the servo a little quicker.These have seald diffs for silicone oil what you guys using

Tamiya AW grease. I never could get oil to saty consistent in them, but the grease does.
