RE: losi lst vs cen genisis
How do I think they will compare?
They will both have:
4 wheels
4 tires
a chassis
a receiver
a fuel tank
an engine
a glow plug
an antenna
4 wheel drive
a steering servo
a throttle servo
a battery tray
differentials
oh and a price thats more than three hundred dollars. All we know are that they are both trucks and until they come out no one can compare what they will look like, handle like, run like.

RE: losi lst vs cen genisis
The new CEN weighs 15.5 lbs. You can ask Kerry at the wildhobbies site about that. He has one. The new losi claims to be 13 lbs. I only say CLAIMS because its not out yet. If its not out yet, its not production yet. We'll know when they both hit the market.

RE: losi lst vs cen genisis
It seems as though the Monster trucks are getting a lot more complicated. It would seem the appeal would be for it to be tough and fast. It looks as though these two trucks have, especially the Genesis, have too many parts/components. The idea of four wheel steering is cool but I don't know how well it will work. It has 10 shocks. It seems like a lot more maintenance and tuning issues. Personally I think MT's should be simple: Suspension travel, speed and durability. I guess with the popularity of monster trucks it was only a matter of time before companies started making them more tweak-able. I think they are both interesting but maybe venturing off into overkill.

RE: losi lst vs cen genisis
neap, what are these loads of problems with Cen vehicles? I have one, and have yet to experience a problem that wasn't my fault. Oh, I take that back. My reciever was one of a very few that had issues with running two high torque servos. But thats it, end of story. I feel that cen makes vehicles that are consistent in quality with the top manufacturers, they just do it for less.

RE: losi lst vs cen genisis
Bottom line - we will not know until both trucks are out.
Anything before then is just conjecture. At best.
More than likely, this thread will become (continue to be) a flame war and get closed down.
