Default New to buggy

Hi all, sorry if i posted on the wrong spot, im new to the forums.

anyway im into drifting nitro and electric , when i saw what buggies can do i just had to change course,more action!!!

i was wondering if this is a good car to start with, kyosho inferno neo 2.4ghz type 2 im on the $450 to $500 range, i would pretty much want to start with RTR versions

just cause im not ready to go all out yet, but this is going to be a main hobby of mine.

or am i better off with something else for that price range,thanks in advance.

Hi Ranz, when you get it read the instructions (especially for the engine) a couple of times before you do the break in. They are spot on and will help alot.
Also if you want to order spare parts online try WWW.INFERNOSONLY.COM.;)
There is also a forum here on RCU called "KYOSHO INFERNO U.S SPORTS" where you will find alot of info about the MP7.5 whether it be the U.S sports or other types. Post a couple of pictures for us.(please)

I am looking to pick up a LOSI 810 soon.

Would you gents suggest the Inferno Type 2 over that? Why (other than price)?

Hey Lez, yea sure will post some pics soon as thebuggy gets here, i ended up getting the race spec for a little bit more,comes with a bigger engine and a tuned pipe, and i took mugen seiki mbx 6 for consideration,but i guess it was $500 sumthing bucks just for the kit, anyway yea ill post an update soon as it gets here.

Hi Greekspeare, wish i could advice you on that one , i actually have had problems choosing one myself, but i ended up getting the kyosho inferno, dont have knowledge on losi 810, but alot of people like losi 810, has little bit better parts from what im reading, i also took that to consideration,but it all comes down to the price and what ur going to dowith it i guess,

They are both top buggies but I personally would choose the KYOSHO. Next thing is to get a starter box because the pull start on ALL buggies is a pain in the nuckles. MANTAU makes a nice starter box that is good for the MP7.5 Inferno series, Ive have mine for a couple of years and never had a problem. You may also want to consider a power panel for the glow starter.
