In the long grass in gets caught for a second, lowering the back and popping the front up, but does have the power to break free. Flies thru normal grass with no issues at all and turns fairly well. Also able to move well at low speed, but tricky to maintain with stock 2.4 electronics, always trying to go faster. Powered up a 15ft 40 degree grass slope without flinching. The speed makes it bouncy and toyish.

I will get my metal roadwheels installed on Friday or Saturday and then add weight until the bounce is gone before I make my final verdict. I do feel that these 3:1's have no business being installed in plastic WWII tanks if you desire anything near realistic movement.
yea sounds not good...I liked your crawling up the stairs! can't wait to get mine!
