First of all: if you have previos experience with RC and looking for 1/18 - buy it. But... be prepared for a bit of frustration. This thing after assembly by the book is just impossible to drive. The main thing is the common problem of rubbing between spur and rear diff. Before I bought it I thought it's gonna be something small and all that rumor about it seems unbelievable. It is serious. You'll have to strip plastic collar around the differential otherwise car will be almost impossible to mov[More…] |

I just finished this kit and must say that it would be a tough build for anyone who is inexperienced at building rc kits. The finished product is awesome, and the car drives very well. However, getting to that point may be difficult if you don't have some building experience. The biggest problem is the location of the pinion and how it sits in relation to the belt - out of the box the pinion gear rubs the front drive belt and causes excess amounts of drag and friction. In short, you have to find[More…] |

I got this kit last year and built it in the first week. The only thing i have had a hard time with is the belt overheating the motor. I fixed that and then put a reedy brushless system on the car with a 2s lipo. This car is really fast. I just built a track in my basement and the tires work perfect with my carpet. It does not run in grass very well so i suggest indoor driving or to go to a local dirt track. I would reccomend this buggy to my friends anyday. |

This kit has some terrible flaws out of the box. Depending what motor you use (I'm using an orion system designed for this truck), you may not be able to solve the pinion rubbing problem mentioned by the previous reviewer, I am going to have to modify the motor mount myself. Add to that the problem mentioned by the other reviewer of the belt system causing too much friction (too tight), overheating motors and escs. Then consider that the diffs need a lot of shimming and extra shims are not suppl[More…] |

Bought this for my 7 year old son and he loves it.
Easy build, like the chose between buggy or truggy.
The only thing I noticed though if you don't put the motor right the pinion it will rub the belt.
Other than that no complaints and I would recommend this little guy to anyone. :) |
