Could this be fixed
 
By christmas I will have enough the purchase a new buggy. I was all Lightning 2 Pro then MP777 sp1 then all Prospec but now I'm back to the MP777 cause its about 130$ cheaper than the prospec. I already have a Novarossi P5-Turbo and I know that the Inferno has twitchy steering. So if you add that I think you might be doing donuts. Im sure you can adjust the steering but I don't want a buggy with oversteer, not saying I dont like drifting just not during a race. So I want to make sure this can be fixed before buying it. And I don't need recommendations of other engines cause I got what I got.
Thanks

I wouldn't be too worried about it. Any of the buggies you mentioned have enough chassis and driveline adjustment that you can pretty much tailor steering response to your liking. Also, if you have a transmitter with steering expo you can use that to slow your servo response. If all else fails, slap in a slower steering servo.

it has fast steering response, wether it over or under steers depends on how you set it up.

Yes, and the response is determined by the speed (and strength) of your servo. If you run a slow servo, response will be slow, and quicker with a faster servo. If you have a fast servo and adjustable exponential on your radio you can slow down the response of a fast servo with the expo.

Or i could get some lighter clutch springs so the engagement wont be so rapid. I have a helios so most things can be adjusted, and if it does spin out on a corner ill just have to be prepared to catch it. But now that i think about it i dont think it will be much of a problem. Thanks anyway

The MP777 has perfect steering. You probably heard a lot of guys go from Kanai II's to the SP1 and have oversteer problems, because its a new car you have to get used to it. When you get used to it, like I have, you'll be cutting the corners sharp, while everyone else is going wide in the turns and losing valuable laptime. Its just too easy to drive this car.

So i guess it would just be practice then.
Thanks
