Is that raising the cells above the slope in the chassis?

Nice looking conversion.
Just wondering how you found the car behaved before & after,as with mine to get it driving to suit me i had to move the battery forward as far as possible ( by removing the fwd battery stop and adding 40gms there as well) using a short servo, all to get more weight over the front, after this the car was planted, this was on indoor astro, next week we move to outdoor grass..
What surface do you race on ?

Well I use it most on Belgian Astro tracks like MBV Kampenhout and i must say it is great.. I find it better because you can go faster in corners without the car breaking out at the rear... the weight ratio is 65%rear /35% front but i am now testing with higher front weight ratio... Ill keep you updated

You disassemble the whole car and weigh every piece carefully. You add up the numbers and calculate the front vs rear weight. If that doesn't work then maybe the ancient Maya culture knows what to do!


...


Scales, obviously.
