Default integy 55 stalls out

Hi,
I got a clod with two integy 55 9t pinions.
When I try to go up something really steep the front tires start to slip and keep turing, but the rear stalls out and won't turn.
Dont get me wrong, my set up seems to have a lot of power, but shouldn't it keep turning until the car flips over backwards?
I am running a traxxas ECS 14.4v from a emaxx 4s1p lipo on one side with a seperate 6v reciever.
Thanks

That is the best thing about clod stall. The truck doesn't flip as easy as a shaft driven truck when climbing. If you learn to use it to your advantage, it can be very helpful.

X2 You can also run a 8 tooth pinion in the rear to take a little of it out.

X3,it can work for ya too.I have dug up on the rocks till the rear works without rolling over but I have had it come back to soon and cause a flip.
Put a smaller pinion in the rear or run 2 esc's with a lot of voltage will make it better.
