Vader? More like AD2's and GT2's. I've been thinking about getting another one since my first was so good.

There is nothing but the name that sets the X-c back from any of the rest of the ST's, It only has a few weak spots that are easily taken care of and it handles as good as any of the other big name models. If they would put as much into drivers and advertising as AE, HPI, Losi or Traxxas X-c would be right on top with them.[:-]

RC10GT bodies are a direct-fit, just can't use the stock holes on the bodies.

Had to do it. HPI doesn't have a race team and Traxxas hasn't had one since the 90's.

I've had experience with all the 1/10 scale RTR engines and I'd have to say the XTM .18 is probably the easiest to start, run, and tune. The do come very rich from the factory. Maybe lean out the high speed 1/8 turn from the get go, you will eventually have to lean in even more.
