Default RE: Need advice: MGT 4.6 or XTM XST ??


ORIGINAL: IloveMYxt2

I'm a fan of XTM and the XST is a good truggy and pretty durable. The engine isnt all that (as in speed but its a durable engine) and the stock servos will go out on you, but its not like its a 500 dollar RC.

If you already have a monster truck, go with the truggy. Its a better jumper and it handles way better.
Thanks for the input. The XST looks very well built and, for the money $200 new on sale at Hobby People, it comes with big-bore aluminum shocks, twin disk brakes and really sturdy looking chassis.

I've seen videos of an XST and it really does jump well. Looks pretty fast to me, but you're not so thrilled with the speed? Are the servos plastic geared? Would you say you're pretty tough on your model or the servos just aren't so hot?

Did you follow the instructions on the engine break-in- does it take may tanks of fuel? What fuel are you running your XST with?

Thanks for the info.
