Default RE: Need a new truck..but what?


ORIGINAL: YXZ123

Hey guys, looking for a new truck. Not new to RC though.

I'm debating between a Traxxas E-Revo Brushless, or an HPI Savage Flux HP. As you can tell I want power, and brushless. I am a heavy basher, so strength is a huge bonus for me. I have been looking at the ERBE for a long time..but recently due to events on the traxxas forums, I am looking into HPI. The Savage looks tank. But what are the weaknesses?

Has anyone had experience with both? Or, what are the strength's/weaknesses..

any help appreciated, Thanks.
I think that the flux would be better for you. The e-revo is a little lighter and faster than the flux, but it also isn't as durable. The Savage flux is based off of the nitro savage chassis.
