I hate to say this, but a chassis mounted rear servo is even less scale considering most rear steer setups are full hydro with the ram mounted to the axle housing. But I understand where you're coming from, Chris, i.e. make it challenging to run 4WS so it's not just a simple "bolt-on" procedure? Maybe allow 4WS in TTC events, but with a time penalty of some sort if you have it? I don't know, but I suppose this is a conversation best saved for another day.

Oh, I've got a plan to make it look pretty scale like a full hydro setup. Make people work for it.

If you are able to move Aaron with an RC (ANY RC), then we can cure Cancer, enhabit Mars, and create gold from common rock.
