    The displayed voltage is confusing to me, or does this radio have telemetry?

    Yeah but I think I will go down to a 4....I can literally stand on the rear wheels if I punch it at almost 40, and it will stay that way until it either flips or slows down. I am tired of stripping axles on it though...lol
