From the man himself.
"The JRX2 originally only had a flexible steering arm as a servo saver (not such a great idea). I wanted it to be as long as possible to reduce the strain (more travel) when hit. Since the arms were offset only one could be that long. I would do many things differently in retrospect! I was at the beginning of my learning curve at that time."
I learned something new today! Thanks, mytimac.
