You should have tried drifting it mate. That is what it is and they are a beast to drift. That is also why they have the two steering and throttle settings. The sky is the limit to what you can do with these D12 Suzuki Trucks. I have two and one I am getting a set of drift tyers and have put drift skirts around it. The other I am turning into an all-wheel drive. It rained today so I got them out on the wet cement and had a blast.

for fun... drop in a fast 280 motor replacing the stock 260, then put shrink wrap on the rear tires, shrink, trim, etc... yes these DO drift pretty good without need of a gyro. if you want a rear diff, use a JJRC axle, it'll fit but is a couple mm wider.

It's probably going into reverse because it sees you hit neutral before you hit reverse when you do it slowly. When you do it quickly it goes straight to reverse so it realizes you're trying to hit the brakes. I would imagine if you very quickly go to just a little bit of reverse the brakes will apply.

At the time it wasn’t available yet and I couldn’t really justify spending the money, so I thought I’d wait for some reviews to appear on KZread. Pretty much every review I watched was so enthusiastic about it, I pulled the trigger yesterday and bought one myself :D The set is pretty cheap for what you get and the upgrades don’t look too expensive either, hopefully you can make a video on the car in the future about which upgrades are recommended or maybe even crucial.

Analyzing the PCB closely, I saw that the unknown port you saw in it has "LED" written right at it's side. Considering it's a four terminal port, I think that maybe it's a connection for other LED's in the car, like the tail lights!! (right out of the box, that would be nice!!!). Mine haven't arrived yet, so it would be really interesting if you could measure it's voltage and determine if we can really connect more LED's in there. Thanks!!
