So how does every one like their Ascender?

Cool looking Comanche!

Am I being petty (go easy!) about torque twist? In the videos it looks a little awkward, please don't think I'm crapping on these cool trucks!

The torque twist is very minimal I thought, its incredibly hard to roll this truck.

I love mine, RTR came with HD pinions and driveshafts, been flogging it on 2S and 3S!

I like most of everything about it, although now that I've change shocks (extended PL powerstroke scalers), I seem to be hitting the panhard bar upper mount with my left steering knuckle. I might just opt for a 4link, and chop off the brackets for the panhard bar altogether.

The Proline scaler shocks are too short eye to eye and therefore allow the suspension to compress farther than stock and sooner or later stuff is going to hit. If you want shock upgrade , by the Vaterra aluminum shocks they are sweet! If you eliminate the panhard setup and go with standard 4 link, it's going to bumpsteer.

I literally just tried the front 4 link this morning and eliminating the panhard bar definitely caused dump steer. I went right back with the panhard bar because it was so bad trying to steer under load.

Meh!......I'll work around it, I thought it would be more of an issue, but I just came in from trying to see if it actually hits when its moving, and it doesn't....I would have to jump it, land hard, while fully locking the wheels right for it to happen the way I thought it would.

The TT is not very noticeable without the body, but that large, wide and wall Blazer body really makes it visible.

Yes, TT is not that bad imo, it's difficult to roll this truck even with that big ol Blazer body riding high on stock body post settings. I'm impressed with mine and I'm hard to impress.

OK, cool doesn't sound too muchh of an issue then. Fall Guy stunt driving tends to be hard on crawlers anyways lol.
