With the 8-Racing chassis we have you can definitely feel a bit more flex just twisting it in your hands. Reliability has been excellent though as we have been running the car on a large outdoor track with jumps suited to 1/8 nitro and the chassis shows no sign of fatigue or cracking. Overall the car feels better in every aspect- more nimble yet planted in the corners, accelerates harder on corner exit, and jumps nicer as well. I attribute most of the benefit to shaving 50+ grams off the overall weight, but I'm sure the additional flex is aiding the cornering efforts too.
