Everyone line up for "Stan"
???
Who names these things (found at amax-toys) Can't wait for the upgraded version, I think "bob" would be a good name.

oh...my...god. Do these companies even have marketing departments? Funny, Nutech comes out with an RTR large scale package with a 2.4Ghz radio, and ALREADY the cloners are at it. <shakes head in disbelief>.
By the look of it (hard to tell), this is a wind hobby type MCD/FS clone.
They should definitely call the monster truck version Oliver (Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy) [8D]

there have been many other companies that have come out with a 2.4ghz radio offered with a rtr. An 1/18th scale I bought 2 plus years ago came with a 2.4ghz radio!
The 2.4ghz radios are the future of the hobby, I hope soon that you wont even be able to buy an fm radio!

I'm gonna get struck by lightning after saying this, but...
Maybe it was supposed to SATAN and some Chinese person misspelled it.

Actually fellas "stan" is a himoto/cs/redcat TT so it is no clone just another importer ordering a bunch from HSP with their own badging.

If that is the case, I would buy from Redcat instead. Rampage is a hell of alot better than stan.

If this is a Redcat vs some other HSP reseller kind of thing going on here, Redcat will beat the other reseller hands down. Customer service, established sales points, and most of all, the known Redcat name will beat out this...who is it anyways?
Its like comparing Redcat vs Exceed. Though Redcat sells some of the very same stuff as Exceed, Redcat totally blows Exceeed out of the water becasue Redcat actually takes proactive CS steps and moreover, orders their RCs so that they already contain superior (upgraded) parts out of th box where the other guys will cut alot of corners in a move to try to price under cut.
