Default RE: Official Nitro Evader ST Thread

well. by nitro evader st just make through his first gallon. so here are the the miss, the hit and the weird of my first experience:

the hit
-the engine, very reliable, very powerful, i can use it with the bx gear (17-56) and its still got power enough to do donuts on asphalt with road rage2 and now its got a better top speed.
-the servo, not mater what some peoples say, the original servo are good enough to do the job.
- frame toughness, after a full speed crash into a soccer goal pole, just one a arm broke
- the break, good breaking, what else i can say !!!
the miss
-the gas tank, (sight) leak, broken,dos not close properly, to small for a .18.......total crap
- the ball differential, its suppose to be adjustable, but if u not adjust it the way duratrax say, it dont last. so after all its not adjustable... thats my opinion anyway.
-the wheel, its a urge guys... change those wheel for some losi one. seem like the original one are tough as Ritz crackers!!!
-the front shocks coil spring. they are too smooth, adjust it the way u want they wont handle big jump.

the weird.
-some time, he doing wheelie, for no reason..
-lots of interference in the radio system.

the verdict -since it a cheap truck ( i pay mind 325 canadian dolard ,250 us fond) u can say that u have more than u can expect from this truck, good engine, fun to drive, EZ to tune and mantain. quick and EZ brake-in, CV drive shaft... adjustable pistol radio. i love my evader. but please, duratrax guys, fix that POS gas tank.

see ya[8D]
