I prefer the .5, but it is not as strong.
Can't wait till the mini hyper st comes out. I have a feeling that it will be much better than the .5.

My biggest peeve is the steering rack/servo saver. I broke the left side today just doing test runs in the grass. The car caught a hole in the grass, flipped over, and the steering was broke.
I certainly wouldn't consider that beating on it. However, I do run truck tires and think the extra leverage they create breaks a lot more stuff than the stock buggy tires.
I've been studying the Hobao Mini ST pics and it looks like they are using some sort of sway bar to two act as a steering link. I'm guessing this allows for some cushion when the front wheels hit something and the steering is at max turn.
