Ugh Blade CP has been nothing but trouble for my dad. I read on the internet that keeping that thing steady in air is like trying to stand on an aerobics ball. My dad says he feels the same way.

Im getting a tamiya ta-05, a Novak XRs ESC, trinity C027 PRO motor, and a futaba 3 ch synth reciever. Dont worry though im paying for $75-$100 of it. hats what i generally end up doing becuase what i ask or is expensive, and i pay for some of it, but hey its better to pay $$75 for a $300 thing, then pay $300 for a $300 thing.

well I didn't think I'd get anything R/C this xmas, but I got $130 for R/C from the grandparents and a baja king from my parents as a surprise! I think I'm going to ask them to return the baja so that I can get a DI, plane, or a blizzard!

how fast is it stock? is it raceable without putting ALLOT of money into it, because if it is, then how is it a tamiya lol.....i personally think tamiya's are just for fun all around, but i want a kit that is a buggy with decent ground clearence and it SAND capable

well its a tamiya so yeah i guess u r right, it wot be race-able, but if ur looking for nice ground clearance and nce speed, then i suggest you a Traxxass Stampede, top notch truck, the ultimate ground clearance. Or even a Team associated #7023 RC10 T4 Special Edition, it comes with a 15T mototr, pretty fast with acceptaable acceleration, and also pretty nice ground clearance, resonable rpice, aluminum oil filled shocks, and i think its a aluminum slipper clutch, its pretty nice, dats da one i got for christmass!
