Re: Strange steering/throttle issue with Slash

What I ment was when I turned full left the wheels would turn left and it would go into reverse. but I got it figured out... I think :? I don't know...

Re: How do I install this RPM Steering set-up?

I've had several sets of these and am not impressed. RPM made a better set up later on that accomodates bearings. I think the best you can do on these is to make sure they are oiled/greased. Well I got them on the DS I just finished and I Kinda agree... I don't see any benefit over the stock DS/GT ...

Are those the stock steering screws you have? I didn't even think to check to see if the stock steering screws were longer :roll: all th...
