Emaxx - can it handle and jump well?

[Rtsbasic]

Just took my Emaxx out for a run after a couple of months of it being in peices, what a blast :dft003: It handles nicely and has plenty of traction over very uneven gravel/grass, but smacks the ground very hard on jumps. I'm using Integy shocks, with 4 white UE springs and 4 stock red springs fitted, with 60wt oil and approx 2.5inches ground clearance front and back.

And all this leads me to the question..how would you recommend I change its setup so it doesn't bottom out so harshly, without compromising its handling? I had 4 red UE springs on instead of 4 stockers before, and it handled very well and jumped pretty good on hard surfaces, but I'm concerned if I firm up the suspension too much i'll start to loose stability on the very uneven ground on the farm I live on.

Another small handling issue..it was very rear heavy in the air, a lot of correction was needed otherwise it'd do a couple of front flips before landing. Any thoughts on improving this?

Cheers.
