Buggy
#2
I have that buggy, but the non-beginner version. mine has the 2 speed and .18 engine instead of the single speed and .16. I also have two trucks (just at the moment, ive sold off two buggies in the past couple months). They are great rc's, good for something to bash around with, they arent the most track worthy out of the box, they can be though. But its only 120, verses how much for a 4wd nitro rc with the (big brands)? why not give it a try, and worst case scenario you can just sell it and get some back.

DONT BUY FROM RAIDENTECH, go to Nitrorcx.com. I've heard that Radientech's customer service and turn around time is a joke. I ordered mine from Nitrorcx.com but I ordered my replacement parts from Exceed-rc.com. I found that they are a little cheaper in price so when you order enough spare at once, it's like getting free shipping. My last order saved $6 through Exceed-Rc.com and there shipping is pretty fast. I live in NJ, the parts are coming from Cali and they'll be here today. Took 4 days, not too bad. The only difference between the .18 and .16 is the .18 is 2-speed. With the .16 you loose about 5-8mph. But I've also read that the 2-speed tranny tends to rip up gears more often than the single speed version, that's why I went with the .16. Also check out this thread. I was asking the same questions when I was looking to buy mine. The Forza is the 2-speed and the HyperSpeed is the single speed.

If that's so, then how the hell can Radientech be so terrible and Nitrorcx be on top of there game? It doesnt really matter either way. I know I'll never order from Radientech's web-site.
