    I've had a kyosho madbug for years now. It was my first new modern r/c since I was in elementary school. It is on the same platform but with longer arms for off-road. It handles like a dream and the factory tires and wheels are good. Unfortunately everything plastic broke. All the things your worried about. All four wheel shaft cups stripped out, front hub stripped, driveshaft twisted like a redvine, the plastic spur gear stripped, and after replacing all that, the esc let out the magic smoke. I still have it and it's fun to drive, but it just keeps breaking. On top of that the parts are so hard to find. I'm just glad I bought it almost brand new. 🤷🏽‍♂️

      They're steering stops so when the steering extends fully to one side, that cup hits the top suspension arm preventing further motion. We believe this is an effort to prevent the front dogbones from popping out in certain situations.

Forwards on throttle makes reverse sound on ESS. I’ve tried calibrating the ESS and verified several times it’s connected correctly. Was there any issues like this on your installation? If so how did you correct it? Thanks Brett!!
