Default How Is This?

<font size="3" face="Tahoma">Hi Ya Folks
Well I decided on my first Nitro Truggy build. The only thing in stone is it will be a Tamiya TRF801Xt, I already have that. So I would love any criticisms, thoughts and suggestion. I realy know nothing about this sport accept I look forward to mastering it with the best stuff I can afford. I have also opted for some of the Tamya Hop-Up parts now rather than later. I REALLY want suggestions here.
So here goes in no particular order.</font>
<font face="Tahoma"><font size="3">Spektrum DX3R Transmitter, SAVOX Servo&rsquo;s 1257TG and 1258TG, full set of the Tamiya Springs, Tamiya Short Suspension Arm Set and Short Drive Shafts, the Tamiya Aluminum Rear Hubs, Tamiya Aluminum Front/Rear Chasis Braces, the 14 tooth Clutch Bell, Pro-Line Revolver M2 tires, and the Fioroni Vario Clutch. I am considering the Sirio CL7B-US STI Long Stroke Engine. I just have no clue about engines. But I&rsquo;d like to spend extra on quality and this on looks good.</font></font>

Default RE: How Is This?

if you want Savox servos you will want the 1256TG ... the 1257 wont stop that truggy, IMO the 1258 isnt strong enough to stop it on a dime but it will get the job done ... i run 425oz/in on steering and 208oz/in for throttle on my buggy, putting them on my new truggy also .... on the engine, the Sirio wont pull that truggy. good engines would be: werks B5, Ninja 21, 21, TQ engine, O'donnell Super Sport 21 or Jammin JPX 21 (jpx may be a little much for a starter engine) .... just to list a few ... those are probably the best bang for your buck, easy to tune and last a good while.

cant comment on the tamiya, didnt like them and need mods to get it to turn and i have no clue about them, just drove 2 tamiya, one with the hop-ups and one stock, stock one stunk, the hoped up one was ok, they just didnt fit my driving style ... go to rctech.net and start a thread there and you'll get way more info on the tamiya<br type="_moz" />
