you could easily build a full custom chassie for under $300 with fully upgraded parts that would work much better under that body
I hate shelf queens, but every good collection has them. With that particular rig, I would paint up a Betty body and put it on the top shelf.

A lot of nostalgia there for a lot of us. For many of us, that was our first crawler. And, that was the rig that really launched the crawler community from a tiny niche market to a mainstay in RC.

Sorry, not much advise here, but that rig takes a lot of us down memory lane.

My next question is super general - in other forums I have belonged to if I am subscribed to a thread I get a notification if someone posts. In looking at the control panel here it says I am set up for instant notification but I don't receive them. Does that feature not work here?
Thanks

They seem super soft to me.
Question that need to be answered:

Does it roll or lift a front wheel when you accelerate?

Does the entire body roll when you side hill?

Does the RC roll or flip backwards when you climb?

Does it roll when you are turning fast?
