    Spot on Bro! I took your advise and put in your servo and a RadioLink RC6GS. I expected a subtle improvement ... no it's like a night and day difference! Besides radio response, and servo speed, I also get more steering throw. As a beginner it's actually too responsive now, but with the RC6GS I can detune it until my skills improve. Thanks for the video that opened my eyes!

    Well, first outing with my new Granite 3s, flipped it, rolled it, jumped it and it was a blast! It´s like day and night compared to the typhon mega... However, the transmitter that goes along it, bin it, unsure if the reciever goes with it! The delay is out of this world for pete sake! It was kinda forgiving on the typhon, but going at these speeds you will want instant reaction to whatever you are doing.. Waited over a month on that damn Dumborc and reciever.
    But i felt those fangs growing larger and larger =)

    Totally agreed on the servo too! The metal servo mount is a must as well - especially if you're upping the power of the servo. 2 CHEAP upgrades and it's a beast.
    I haven't bent the chassis yet so fingers crossed!!!
    Kev! I'D LOVE to see your thoughts/review on the v5 notorious. Seems like all the problems you had have been fixed (minus the servo mount lol) the chassis is stronger, comes stock with the chassis stiffener like the "custom" one you put on, thicker shock towers blah blah 🤷‍♂️
