Vendetta ST or Mini Inferno ST?
Well I am completly tired of having these diff problems in my MLST. I am even stripping the viscous diff pinions. (Thunder Power 3c 1900mah Quark/Wraith). I wanted to know which of these trucks would this setup swap right over to (with an exception of the battery) most reliably, or with the least upgrades. In other words I want a truck that has a half worthy drive train. Or even better, a bullett proof drive train for a little $$$. Also I am having a problem with my Wraith/Quark. Somtimes it will completly stop and just studder when I pull the trigger and then after a minute I can get it to go. It's extremly frustrating. Thanks for reading, and hopefully helping.

The vendetta is pretty stout stock, but its unlikely to handle 3S lipo and brushless. Youd need CVDs, ball diff, and a servo hold down is mandatory even stock.
You may be better off getting a mini quake SE that has all that stock except the hold down. They are $99 but dont have any electronics, but you have the brushless so all you would need is a radio and 1 full size servo.

Normally I would say Vendetta, but the motor you have is better suited in the KMI ST (2mm vs 2.3mm shafts and pitch issues). Using that motor in a Duratrax mini limits your pinion options to only Atomic 2mm pinions.
I would get the Xray M18MT personally, if using that motor. My 2nd choice would be to sell just the motor and get a 3.2mm shaft motor and a detta st.

The 2mm shaft on your Feigao isn't best suited for the Vendetta ST. I do find the Vendetta the car to go with. Xray also makes great cars. Either one should please you in spite of your LST's problems.
