Important infos
first it seam's like that every M5 Stuart has the motor's wired wrong....
if you use the left stick of the remote , it will control the right track and vice versa ...
at least I found that so far on 2 of them I took apart and heard from other guy's the same problem ...
in that case you will have to open your Stuart and swap the wires around between the controller-board and the motor's ....
see photos in  corrected motor-wiring

by taken it apart (opening the Stuart ) I found also that the right gear-box ( in driving-direction ) is mounted a little crocked .....
check the photos in Gearbox alignment
you will see what I am talking about
to fix that I just removed a few of these brown washer's/spacer's you will find underneath the gear-boxes
( you see that also on my photo's )

more to all this soon with more photo's and also more organized .......

if you have any questions or like to have some of your idea's posted here , let me know ..
you can also use that form below ...
( please fill out your email-address correct , otherwise I can not get back with you )
