RE: Stampede Jumping?
The Stampede is the best jumping electric truck..period!! It will take impacts that you cannot describe! Many say it is the best jumping RC out there! It wont wheelie out of the box, but with a Trinity Speed Gems 2 Saphire and a Rooster esc, it will wheelie.

Im assuming you are talking about Nitro. If not let me Know. This depends on two things how long you can ride a wheellie out and what kind of set ups your jumping from. I can already tell you the stampedes suspension is not set up for huge jumps . cant really tell you about the upgrades. If I had a choice between the stampede and Rustler 2.5 I would go for Rustler. The Rustler is a powerhouse. Although it is not considered a compitition truck the raw power should provide unlimited fun. And with the speed that thing can get up to you can pull off some pretty amazing jumps!!!!!!!!

It's been a long time since I've held the controller for what used to be my Stampede but it definately took a lot of abuse. Full throttle jumps weren't uncommon but tumbles were. I had a blast with it & I've seriously concidered replacing it but I'm not really into electric anymore. Mine wouldn't wheelie unless I lifted the front end with my hand but it would ride it until I hit something or let off the throttle.
