I know.... psiturbo,... I also was curious, When I apply the brakes, it does a slide /180 deal?.... Is this normal?... I was driving it without the body during this time, I was wondering if with the body with the wing would this not happen, do I need to adjust how much the brakes, are pulled on the transmitter?....
I just couldnt imagine people racing like this doing 180's all over the place..
180 degree spins....you need to adjust you brakes a little less harsh, it sounds like you have a front one way diff fitted, these asre great for racing as the car corners better, but for beginers...like myself, they're a nightmare as when you apply the brakes, your only braking with the rear wheels, not the front...hence the spin. However with expensive radio gear this can be minimised, some even have ABS, that gets rid of this problem.
Personly i've stuck a solid front axle in my kyosho RRR, as it applies brakes to front and back that way, much easier to control.
Have fun, glad you got your engine sorted by the way.
