RC Driver did a review on it and said it was pretty good, they obviously likd the hyper 8 better ($500) but the LX ONE comes with a .28 so its not race legal as far as the engine goes. in a few minutes a pile of people will be on here with alot more answers than this. I'm sure there will be more opinions to come. I dont own this buggy, I have a Thunder Tiger ST-1 truggy ($369 RTR).
