In this Roadside RC video, Troy embarks on a mini LMT upgrade adventure with parts from Bow House RC. The mission? Enhance stability by lowering the center of gravity with a simple ESC and battery tray swap. As the parts are meticulously installed, Troy meticulously tests the truck's tipping point before and after the upgrade. The ESC plate is effortlessly bolted in, showcasing Bow House's clever design for convenience. The battery tray takes its place, sacrificing a brace for a lower position and added strength.
Despite the dramatic drop in electronic height, the real-world test results leave Troy scratching his head. The stability improvement seems elusive, prompting a deep dive into the theory of weight distribution and its impact on cornering prowess. While the upgrade is a logical and cost-effective move, the expected stability boost falls short during testing. Troy's reflection on the minimal difference raises questions about the effectiveness of the modification. Nevertheless, the affordable nature of the Bow House upgrade makes it an attractive option for LMT mini owners looking to fine-tune their trucks.
As the dust settles on the installation and testing process, Troy's conclusion leaves a lingering sense of uncertainty. The video serves as a reminder that even the most well-thought-out upgrades may not always deliver the expected results. Despite the minor setback, the Roadside RC team remains committed to exploring new ways to optimize performance and stability in the world of RC trucks. So, if you're a proud owner of an LMT mini seeking to unlock its full potential, the Bow House upgrade may offer a tantalizing solution, even if the road to stability is paved with unexpected twists and turns.
