Finally got to thrash on my Flux XL

[_dV]

My experience has been that you really do need a heavier tire and\or extra wheel speed to get some aerial action happening with an XL length chassis. I don't have that much of the latter but running the heavier than stock HPI GT-S tires gives a decent amount of rotation rate in the air. It's still nowhere near what a stock Flux can achieve but I can usually get out a single backflip on a decent sized jump with a little time to spare. With the stock tires I was really struggling.

If your geared really low you will also struggle as your probably using a fair whack of throttle getting up the jump at decent speed to get the air you need. This doesn't leave enough throttle to increase wheel speed and change wheel angular momentum to make the truck rotate.

My build is very stable to drive. I've been considering sacrificing a bit of that by making another chassis that is in between stock and XL to gain some aerial agility. Would be interesting to see how much difference that would make.
