Please describe your observations in the difference in handling between forward and reverse motor rotation. Very curious!

I only had to drill 4 holes for the transmission I used another chassis the line up the holes.
The holes for the bulkhead are slightly off but because the bulkhead has some give it still works.

Thanks! Not as complicated as I thought. I was wondering if you had moved the suspension mounts back too in order to extend the wheelbase. Where did you source your transmission? I am still learning about all of the different types of Stealths and their compatibility.

Cheers
