RE: caught the electric spark again.
If you need ground clearence, and parts avaliability, go with the stampede. If you dont mind it sitting lower, get a used rs4mt electric(discontinued now). Good luck

RE: caught the electric spark again.
thanks for the opinions and thing s are way more expencive here in alberta.for example, on the thread,"who busy your nitro"people are saying that they par $24 a gallon of fuel adn here im pain $35 a gallon.i have 236.50 now adn that has to pay for truck,accesaries,and tax.emaxxs are $450 at my LHS so i dont think 236.50 will cover it.
|
RE: caught the electric spark again.
yeah.. thats $35 can... thats what i pay (transalates to about $24 us) so same thing
|
RE: caught the electric spark again.
oh yeah.. where do you live unspoken cause i live in alberta too??
|
RE: caught the electric spark again.
i live in medicine hat alberta
|
RE: caught the electric spark again.
I was thinking of buying a mini-t so i can zoom zoom around the house when im not running my nitro buggies. What do they come with batteries and chargers or would i have to buy something? I would go look at the losi site but im too lazy and figured it would be easier posting here.
|
RE: caught the electric spark again.
ah,lazy.theres a word i know all to well[sm=tired.gif]i odnt know anything about micros or minis so i cant help you out there,sorry.
|
RE: caught the electric spark again.
Get a T3 off of ebay.
|
RE: caught the electric spark again.
i dont like T3s or at least the one i saw suked.it broke the very first jump and after a quik pit fix it broke again cause a electric rustler(stalk i might add)came up behind it and hit the back and the rear body mount broke.it was really brittle.
|
RE: caught the electric spark again.
wow sure is alot of people from alberta on the forum:)
Go with the stampede. Its the first rc I bought about 2 years ago and I still never broken a part(aside from a rear axle thanks to my D6 motor:D). It was a real shock when I switched to nitro...broken arms and shock towers everywhere[:o]...like a war zone on my work table right now. Anyways...see if you can find the kit version of the stampede because the traxxas radios are junky as you propably know from your T-maxx Good luck;) |
RE: caught the electric spark again.
ya i know the stock radios are crappy.as soon as i got rid or reverse and got my blazer ive had way more control over my truck.and before i jsut thought i was a crappy driver.
|
RE: caught the electric spark again.
just a little info i got my rustler with ESC for under 150 shipped and thats including state sales tax. that would leave you with plenty of room for modifications or to buy another servo/reciever to use the radio from your nitro or something....
