I've had my 1/10 Exceed HyperSpeed for about a month now and I've got nothing but good things to say about it. I stripped one main gear so far but that was my own fault. The pull start broke on my last time out which Andy is going to replace for free. (although I already ordered another one) That wasn't my fault though. It was easy to turn over and she fired right up but then the cord snapped. O well. I know these RC's aren't ment for hardcore bashing but I've also read threads where people are putting them through hell and have had no problems.

I myself just use it for something to drive around and have fun. No big jumping and what not. Parts are cheap and support is great. Being that Exceed, Himoto, and RedCat are all the same, parts can be found all over the net. I order from Exceedrc.com which is in Cali. I'm in Jersey and have my parts in 4 days. Can't complain about that.

As for the sh motors, I've heard nothing but good things about them. I've also been told that they are amazing compaired to the VX series and for that reason I'm going to buy a SH .18 for my buggy. They are such a hot seller that RedCat is out of stock at the moment. So that's gotta tell you something. For duarability, I've read that if your going to bash these RC's to go with the 1/8 because they hold up a lot better than the 1/10's.

Before buying my buggy I read as much as possible about them and found that the stock radio systems aren't something you want to run. So I ordered new Traxxas waterproof servo's and another Futaba receiver to use with my Tx. Also bought a Ofna fail-safe, which all has worked out great since I've had it. This summer I'm looking to go 1/8 and get the Razor

Beware Nitrorcx is a total ripoff !!! They sell cars that do not work !!! I have two cars that have problems and nitrorcx will not help me.
I purchased a brushless buggy that shutters like a junkie on CRACK. The shuddering seems to be very common on these cars because there forum is full of complaints.
I also have a 1/18 scale gas buggy and the servos twitch worse than a junkie on crack ???
There is a very small man there his name is andy and is worthless. He called me a crook and now refuses to deal with my problem. This small person has even went as far as to have me removed from the help forum ???
Let the buyer beware nitrorcx is a rip off and does not stand behind there defective cars. You can get the same deals with namebrand cars from Tower Hobbies for almost the same price, the only difference is Tower Hobbies will back up there sales and make the customer happy.
Good luck to all those battling nitrorcx for refunds !!!

WOW you must really be pissed to have posted the same thing in 3 different Threads so far. If your not getting anywhere with Nitrorcx, then posted them on here for sale/trade. I'm sure you'll come up with something. If not then do whatever it takes to fix them. Get new servo's, Rx/Tx or whatever else you need. The thing to do is read up about what your about to buy. That way your not pissed or suprised when ***** happens. You do get what you pay for dude.

Redcat's reply to my warranty problem:

Is this what you need

There is a 30day warranty on the remote system, take the part to a local hobby store and ask if they can find a new part for you ( if they ask what can it is tell them its an offna or a kyosho )? if you tell them its ours they might kick you out.

Real professional huh.
