    well for the servo issue i am going to upgrade the steering servo to the HPI SF-32TT becuase it has 330 oz-in of torque, and then take my stock steering servo and use it as my throttle/brake servo. that way they will both have metal gears. hopefully that will be the last time i gotta mess with...

    I am also very shocked to see that with so many people with the OWB problem and half tank lean problem that HPI has not found a fix for this.
