Ya, take out the front drive shafts and give it alot of gas in the air or slam on the brakes in the air.

typically when you keep the throttle on in a jump, you'll bring the nose up & keep going into a full backflip. Putting on the brakes does the opposite and makes the nose dips down. I wouldn;t advise slamming the breaks on midflight though. Guarantee you'll nose dive into the dirt!

Mozzy is right, but one other thing just before you land make sure you let off on the gas, you will rage your drivetrain if you dont. I have made this mistake. :D

As said above, keep the throttle PINNED throughout the jump to backflip. Your truck needs to be properly tuned though in order for the top end to spin the wheels fast enough. And it's true you need to let off the throttle upon landing to keep your drivetrain in tact. Oh, taller tires make flipping easier too. That's why in almost all the videos the majority of flippers are Traxxas' or HPIs. Those wheels/tires are HUGE...
