We need more info.
Compared to what? How does it struggle? Does it just spin the tires? Does it flip backwards? Ect...

So traction and weight distribution sound like the problem.

- Better tires

- Forward weight bias

- Weighted axles

- Lower gearing maybe...if you don't mind compromising speed

Mount the battery more forward than it is and/or add an ounce or 2 of weight to the servo

I have found that driving style plays a big roll on steep hill climbs. Try practicing steady throttle control, keeping the tires moving without breaking traction. Slower may be better in some situations.

If you still have have stock foams in the tsl's you have probably noticed they are very soft, i put some 2.2 sized memory foams in mine and improved handling greatly, weighting the front wheels will help. My dingo wheel based scx10 climbs as well as when it had a honcho wheel base

If your using tapatalk on your phone you expand the quick reply box by pressing the + button then press the camera, you can add from gallery or directly from the camera. Applies on my galaxy s4 not sure about others. On a pc it will be the same sort of process I should imagine, just need to find the add attachment or similar button when writing a reply.
