How much weight do you have in front? It looks like too much to me. Other then that it looks good.

Bender it is too much, I was messing with some different positions, I will probably move some to inside of the back wheels seeing how the only weight back there is from the esc and receiver. Thanks for the suggestion! -Lex |

On the second little hill there were alot of little like dried up moss patches and the tires would hang on them and rip off until they made contact with the rock face. Oh yes what a great first body...You can always cover up your mistakes with a sharpie but you can't cover up the sharpie itself Thanks for the great comments guys! -Lex |
