I did the same thing about 4 years ago when I bought my first RC rock crawler . It is a RC4WD Lux . I lower it as far as I can get it . My friends telling me why ? They say that I dont want to do that . I told them I had my reasons to get the CG as low as possible . I told them I have a lot less chance for roll overs and tip over end over end . As they took there rigs up the sides of hills and roll over . While I take mine on the side of the hill and it would not roll . It would slip or slide like they would do but wont roll over .
