Looks good but can you get some video of you driving at sped, 70mph ish as it's where I heard the paravan system is weaker when compared to joysteer, do you get any drift at speed?

[Burgerman]

Drift and less stability at speed is not inherent in joystick controlled systems.

As here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcQNmYJnF_g

If the van loses directional stability at speed, add a degree of "toe out" to its tracking. Or reduce / remove any toe-in it has already, and needed lower the front say 1 inch. If it still does it, then keep increasing toe-out until it wants to track straight at speed. Because steer induced body roll add weight to the wheel that stops the roll.

In the video i posted, at 2:39 min you can see me driving at about 70-75 mph without any problem. I have driven at 82 mph a lot of times very very easy. And with the training car and four directional joystick i reached 87 mph (this car had installed Paravan Space Drive system, version I).
I haven't tried the joysteer system, but i can only say that the Space Drive is AWESOME with joysticks. I don't like with miniwheel for steering, but it is because my disability
