There is something about the electrical capacitor filtering electronic noise, so I would imagine that is you would find a bigger capacitor, you could filter more electrical noise. Not sure though. Google it.

If it's something your willing to spend $10.00 have CreativeSN look at it. He is an all out pro, genius, einstien, etc.

If you drive it outside, take it apart and clean it up real good. I have a couple that I drive outside and the rest inside...one of the cars I always drive outside was making loud noises and I cleaned up all the components; especially the parts that have to do with the turning and it runs nice now!

well if you put in the ball bearings that will reduce load on the motor and make it quiter and also if u put in the tourqe gears you can also reduce noise from the motor... also if you can lighten your load up it will make it quiter.. lol durrr

CreativeSN is incredibly reliable, If you aren't willing to spend the 10.00, just take it apart peice by peice, and give it some throttle. If you can't find out that way and it is irritating the hell out of you just send it to him.

Go to Xmodworld if you want to see some examples of his workmanship.

And crocket, you can install all of the bearings, and if it is still bugging ya, you could take the rear diff case, front dif case, and motor gear case apart and check for any debris in there.

Um, if you don't run your XMod with the body on it that could be the problem. If you do run it with the body on and it still makes noises, check for places on the body that might be loose (like screws holding the mirrors on). Besides that, go with what everyone else says.
