I've had the matrix for a week now..... and to be honest the thing seems very quick all round. It's very well built with stuff on it that you would expect on much more expensive buggies. The radio gear again is faultless including high torque metal geared servos...which you just dont expect for a RTR. But in saying all this, I'm a little dissappointed with a few things, I'm still having trouble with the engine temp, I have it very rich and I'm still getting temps of 260 deg F, mind you, its still very quick off the start and at the top. Another thing is the wing.... its too small and the mountings are are poor, the graduated holes on the wing mount ripped the first time it went over...there needs to be some alloy around here...I think. Also I find the body ill fitting and a little troublesome, but this is a minor thing really.

Dont get me wrong...I'm VERY happy with the purchase at AUD$710, I could of got it cheaper importing from the states but its hard to get after sales services when the Pacific Ocean is in the way.... Once I get the engine temp prob sorted I'll be over the moon.

I'll post some pics of it taking the jump out in the paddock soon.... I've been using a Habao Hyper 7 PCS for a bit now and it gets some serious air over the jump.... hehehe.
