nice picture chris, my mrs went around saying "nobjokey" for ages, not realising it was an offensive gay saying.. she thought it was a type of pants. she must have said it numerous times infront of her gay friends.

I used CA glue, i have managed to snap the actually link off that so make sure you have a spare. Decent servos shouldn't break without a saver. I even ran a cheapish one in the xx4 last year with no breakages.

If it's high speed sweepers you're struggling on, it might be an idea to try a coulple of different rear wings. Depending on the current size of the one you're running then go a little smaller and remove the gurney.

As also mentioned above, try a front wing in combination with these rear wing changes.

At crashing and yes going into corners far to fast.

Cris I used to suffer from this with my b4 before i saw the light to deal with it persoanlly i just changed my driving a little didnt gun it out of corners as quick took a bit of a wider line into the corner. Generally just went slower though out the corner.

Mike, what servo are you using? have you tried a different one?

If you do glue the servo saver up, it might well be that the servo has been strained so much over a long period of time, it's lost it's torque.

Worth a try pal
