Just purchased a Truggy
I've sold off almost all my rc items as I was gonna get out of it for a while,
But still had a savage flux Hp and 1/10 short course truck, that was until yesterday when I sold both online,
I sold the flux and kept the rarely used motor and a used once v3 blur esc, only reason was if in the future I wanted to get back into rc it wouldn't cost a lot for a quality esc and motor,
I was on flea bay today getting the details of the two buyers of the trucks I sold when I came across a new in box Truggy,
Well I bought it right away, so although I no longer have any RC's I soon will have just one,
Haven't heard a lot about the truck I bought before but thought it looked perfect for what bashing I do,
Pics won't upload[:@]

Postage would have cost a bit,
Pics of the new truggy I purchased,
have no idea if its scrap or a decent truck,
Il know when it arrives I suppose.

RE: Just purchased a Truggy
Have a Jammin X1 that I converted to electric, and honestly its a beast.
Only difference I can think of between the 2 is the plastic stone guards (x1 has none) outside that I think they are the same part for part.
The ONE thing I dislike about the X1(and the X2) are the rims are 1/2 offset rims, and only place I found that makes them is OFNA. But I seen an OFNA axle extender that will convert it to standard offset(I think its $20).
I run a 2200kv MM combo in mine (ripped it outta my savage which I threw a 200kv combo in) on 4S with Propline Masher 2k's for a T-maxx(not recommended the tires are crap glad I paid $1 for the 4) on it

RE: Just purchased a Truggy
Just been doing some reading up about the x2 crt,
The x1 and x2 have different Diffs,
X2 has smaller truggy spiral cut ring and pinion the x1 has buggy type Diffs with larger ring and pinion gears,
And these are some other differences found online between the two,
X2 CRT Features:
NEW Stiffer and lighter front wishbones
NEW Stiffer and lighter rear wishbones
NEW Longer front upper arm made from lightweight material
NEW Stiffer lighter front and rear bulk head for reduced weight and more secure location.
NEW Spiral cut Lower internal ratio for increased acceleration and efficiency.
NEW Smaller spur gear
NEW 2 pc. center diff mount.
NEW Light weight radio tray with optimised weight distribution.
NEW Different front and rear chassis stiffeners
NEW Stone guards to enclose the chassis along the whole side of the truck
NEW Longer wheel base for better high speed stability and on power steering
NEW Lightweight chassis which is also narrower for increased chassis roll clearance
NEW Replaceable skid plate underneath the rear of the chassis
NEW body - that is lower stronger and more aerodynamic than the earlier shell.
High down force wing
NEW LPR wheels and tires for excellent traction
NEW Lightened out-drives all round
Although from shear looks the x1 and x2 appear to be very similar,
Glad to hear that they are a blast to run on brushless, yea the proline mashers are a weak tire,
Will take pics when the kit arrives,
Thanks.

Didn't know the diffs were different.
Weird thing is outside the diffs I swore those parts that they listed in the two manual were the same part #'s or am I thinking between the x1, and x2 buggies(I also own the buggy)
