Update!

I centrally placed the servo motor to have an overall better balance, which will prevent the truck from rolling over backward.





Hacked the main stock chassis to be able to add a gear to the driveshaft.





Adding a strut bar upfront will prevent bumpsteer when the springs compresses.





The truck runs rather quickly without sacrifying too much torque from the servo with my gearing setup.

Here's a test drive out of a 9volt battery.




As you can see, there is no ep hooked up yet thus mean no servo yet.
I plan on keeping the stock servo but if it isn't good enough, i'll swap for an hs-55.

Comments are more than welcome!

Thanks!
