i'm getting a bit confused here in the recommendation for the use of the gyro related to track surfaces. i understand there will always be some difference of opinion, but what i am reading is contradictory regarding carpet vs. rcp.

a couple of drove dnano's around on rcp tracks and there really wasn't any trouble whatsoever other than the random tile variation bumps. the large track was rather well used and not stored in a manner that keeps the tiles flat though. i had no issues on my mini-96 at home.
i do think the x-speed will greatly exaggerate any surface anomalies due to increased speed and as others have mentioned, this is where the use of the gyro would seem to excel. with the stock motor though, i found the car to be fine.

what exactly does the gyro control? does it override steering input to correct course only or does it also combine altering throttle response as well?

i'm sure i'm not the only one thinking this but when will this show up on mini-z's? i have no doubts that is where it's headed next.
