    As my 2.0 was a kit, I didn't find out what the "stock" mst electronics were like till I picked up an RXX. It's a front motor rwd version. The servo in that stopped 30 min into playing with it lol! I wish I had done a better job documenting my drift car experience on my channel. It's funny, my rmx came with a BMW body too lol. Now I have 8 different bodies to pick from 😊

      Yes! Worked perfectly. I ended up flipping the Servo with the horn more towards the rear when I got my turn buckle kit it came with the longer steering linkage.

    I just went to RC Car World for the first time last week, also just getting into the hobby. Did you have any issues with the Yokomo servo shaking out of the box? 2 or 3 folks on Reddit posted it shakes out of the box and needs to get programmed properly to eliminate the shake. Not sure if they received faulty servos or if the default settings are bad and you just have to program it

      The program card is worth every penny between $42-$48. It’s a game changer and can help you dial your turning /hunting and transition of the car on certain turns to where your car is adjusted to your drift style and track setup but if your accustomed or contented to your set up now then don’t invest in the program card. Many comp guys use the PC, just make sure if you do use it annotate your old setting if your not happy with the 😊new settings. Sky is the limit in steering adjustments with the PC. The Japanese made a video on UA-cam with English subtitles about the use of the item. My honest opinion it’s truly night and day if you make the changes.
