Hi,

I'm new to the R/Ccommunity and would like to get into the hobby of nitro R/C 1/8 Buggies. I've been researching the different models for quite some time and since discovered this forum which has a lot of useful informaiton, hence the decision to ask for some pointers here. I've found a few models that seem to be good quality and I would like a couple of opinions from some more expereinced enthusiests.

I'm looking for a Nitro RTR that is about $500 or less.

What I've found:

The Losi 810

Associated RC8 RS

And the HPITrophy.

Still open to other choices, any tips or information you could pass on would be appreciated.

Thanks,
