    Most likely its your batts. I have the same problem with my pede. I was using cheap'o batts. (peak racing infact) and they hardly got my brushless pede to wheelie. Get some good 3300's or 2400's and you should be back to wheelie'n.

    im runnin it on asphalt, batts are new and fully charged, haven`t touched the gears,tires are glued,trucks not even a year old yet, motor should allow it to pull a standing wheelie, but it still won`t help me.

    those venom batts arent exactly the best quality are they now guys!? That motor should let you wheelie... if you gear it correctly! try 12/87
    your slipper could be too loose.

    My rustler wheelies on 4 good cells with my streak ESC and titanite motor and 15/84 gearing.Top end is very slow but wheelies easy.( I do put the four cells way back in the chassis. I dremeled out the MSC/ESC mount). It has small stock size tires too. Get some good batteries , you will be amazed.

    My brothers stampede wheelies with an SGP Amber (geared 15/87) at a stand stop with only Mashers (not 2000's), but he also has good Panasonic Heavy Metal 3000 6 cells packs, so this should mean the only thing you need (if you change the obvious changes needed), is good packs, GP, Snayo, or Panasonic like I have. Goodluck.

    Maybe try a little motor maintance? How long has it been since you did a little maintance?
