Some electronic improvments
1) Dual cell your car creates stronger steering.
2) Replacing the steering transistors with mosfets helps as well but not as much as a dual cell. I personally do this when doing the fullsize wheel mod.
Some non electronic ones are.
1) re-align the magnet and check the steering enclosure, also glue the magnet. This technique makes your steering more even and consistent between left and right.
2) a bit of talc power over the wheel knuckles helps reduce friction
3) buy a rare earth magnet from Tandy(radioshack), apparently they have just the right size. I dunno about this mod though ’cause I reakon the stock magnet is pretty strong anyway. I’d like to know if anyone has tried this….?
I’m sure other members will post their hints and tips as well.

I’ll say use the dual cell mod is really good for the monster truck. Because u prob just use a 1.0 for the truck so it will have a lot of torque. A dual cell is the one for your truck. unless u want use the MosFet mod so the car won’t be as heavy. Then I suggest do the Normal MOSFET and the steering MOSFET

yeh i already have a dual cell but i think it might be the mototr then casue its froma clone and rekon its about 3.0 in from the sound ill take it down to alower motor which might help

Strange, you have a dual cell yet the steering won’t turn. Are you sure the steering is actually OK? How heavy/large are your wheels?

Then check the seating of the magnet in the steering assembly, the glue that is used from the factory is quite weak and the magnet can come loose after a while.
Also, have you stuffed around with the steering assembly? I noticed that when I put the magnet back in the steering was crap! I had put the magnet in the wrong way. So try removing the magnet and flipping it over and put the assembly back to together. This is how I found that out!
