Looks real good. My mini T1E chassis should be showing up real soon. I did the OTA steering using RcBros knuckles, but had to make my own temporary link because it was never in stock. I will keep an eye out on CI for the link. |

| So I finally finished this set of tires. I have only run a few battery packs on them, so they are very fresh. They are definitely a wheel speed tire. They do not like slow crawling. They want to be driven in constant motion with little bursts of wheel speed. Here are the specs: RTR Weight as pictured: 3 pounds 3 ounces Each Front: 8.8 total weight 1" wide bead lock Medium Single Stage Foam Narrowed to 1.5" wide Super Soft Compound Panther tire M2 Pro-Line Sidewall Each Rear: 5.8 total weight 1" wide bead lock Firm Single Stage Foam Narrowed to 1.35" wide Soft Compound Panther tire M2 Pro-Line Sidewall This is one of my test lines I use. It's very steep, and the iron ore is sand stonish in that it will have traction for the first few passes, but after that the surface becomes sandy and slick. I start at the bottom and climb up and over the peak. These tires crawled it well. |

| I'm also testing out some new Rovers on new wide 1.9 bead locks. |

Great pic of your test line, have any video to go with it? I hadn't seen a servo gaurd before and was thinking something along the same lines, but probably mishapen and made of poor materials. |
