RE: Losi's new 1/18th Desert Buggy!
Scale buggies are the next big trend. I would expect scale buggies to be the next big thing since the scale trophy trucks are doing so well. This is the first of many more to follow. I always wondered how 1/8 buggies ended up looking the way they did as opposed to looking like real desert buggies. I guess it was for performance. I suspect that within 1-2 years, all major manufacturers will have scale buggy designs based off of their existing platforms.
It only makes sense. People love the scale stuff and there will be a 1/10 scale scale buggy class running before or after the Slash class across the U.S.
I think Losi could have done better with proportions here, but it's cool. This is the next thing for RC, watch.
