Antenna Weight mod

Since the Wild Char-g is so unbalanced, which means it cant climb steep hills, i decided to add weight. I wanted to make it more balanced but at the same time not put too much weight on it. So what i did was, remove the stock car antenna and replace it with a larger gauge wire, i think 22. Then at the tip of that wire, i glued (epoxy putty) a lead fishing weight. Then i bent the wire forward (in front of the car), to give a lever effect on the car.

Thus now, the car is more balanced and climbs hills with ease.
