i just built my first bual cell bit , and i cant get it to stop fliping! its to fast to turn , and when you hold the forward botton on the tx , it dose a whelie from a complete stand still , and if you go from reverse to forward fast it will do bad ass 360s... any way just looking for a way to keep the wheels on the floor ,matt.

When I built a ZZ on a 9V I just bent a paperclip and taped it on the bottom so it didn't flip.

those "anti roll bars' would look fucking awesome in Hiroto's position with his F-14 (if I remember right)
but other than that - how you gonna pull that off on somefin else, ya know?

I like the inginuity - but I'd be damned if I'd put that on my bitPimps truck

which I actually do drive and broke the frickin smoke stacks off of when I raced with the biatch - looks like hell now

(I live dangerously and it bit me)

thanks guys , i tryed the wing things on the side , they work ok , but look wierd .... i found some spring shocks at a local hobby store for slot cars that are about the right size for a bit , and a origanal zz f&f tunter kit , a gen two zz and a ms sport , all for cheap , so i got the zz , and am going back tomorow for the rest , as for that car with the bad rear end , i found the recipet and took that biach back ( bout that nice gen 2 zz for the same $7 , so im happy now ...) thanks for the the help , ill let you guys know how the springs work out, matt .

u can try to make the chassis as low as possible. but then u only can use it on floor. suspension is really important, u need very soft if u don't want flipping. Or use 1/4 AAA batteries instead of 1/3 to reduce weight. Lower the body by use slot or tab lowering methods helps too.
I use the side flap method. but now i use transparent and thin strip of plastic so it's not that visible. and it work well.
