Default Going sideways along a slope

I currently have an stock AX10 Scorpion ARTR which when I drive it when I drive it along a steep rough concrete slope topples over sideways.

I have been thinking about getting a Wraith for a while and I wondered if any knows if the Wraith would perform better in this particular situation.

you need weight in your wheels and adjustments to your suspension.

If you build it with a high center of gravity, it to will flop. All things considered the AX10 should out perform a similary set-up Wraith in that situation.

the Wraith having a wider track should help on hill sides IMO. But keep a eye on the COG while you're building it.
