Hi I own a Mad Truck made by Heng Long. I really like it and was wondering if anyone from Rc Driver has looked into the truck as far as putting it in there magazine? It's a great RTR. I would like to know what everyone else thinks of it too.:) If you go to ebay look up Mad Truck and you should find it. It sells for about 100 bucks. The only thing I would fix is that the spur and pinion gears need a guard. It seems that small stones can get lodged into them. Of course I would change the esc and motor. The shocks need stiffer shock oil and I drilled the air holes out on inner sides of all the rims to make the tire less stiff. The transmitter is really nice and is able to hold up to 10 vehicle settings. The steering servo should be replaced with a metal gear servo. If you run into something, the gears inside the servo will strip out. As far as torque, it doesn't seem to show a short of it. I launched it into a ditch and slowly let the truck drive itself out. It was pretty neat.
