Hi out there. I'm a new member to this forum but am hoping to get along with you all.
Ive been dabbling in boat building with nitros for a while then have since moved into electric cars with my son.
I'm from Australia and I am looking for some information on a Pirate 10 (Ofna).
I just bought the thing on e-bay last week but it is still missing some parts as it was a display model.
I know this is a deleted model for about 7 years but i found a place to get parts fairly readily, but i need an assembly manual so i know what parts to order. Can anyone help?

It's a older design but its one of the strongest and with the right setup can run with the best of them

The ST-1 supposedly handles like a jammin crt. Other's say it outhandles it. I say I love my ST-1 since its ONLY $275!! for such a high quality kit.

I just ordered my truggy and did a lot of research on which one to buy. I had a $600 budget. I decided to get the Thunder Tiger ST-1 because it seemed like a great deal ($299 on Amain - $25 discount). I found many good review and positive comments on the forums. Best of all, I still have money left over to personilze it with any parts I want.

i would buy a spektrum DX2 reciever...then maybe some carbon fiber parts if your racing...if your just bashing the stock reciever will be fine.

With some fine tuning the TTr handles awsome, its light and its built like a tank. Good choice. You will love it. Maybe the most underrated truggy out!

Get a Nitrage. Or if that dosent 'float your boat'
Get a TT St1
But whats your budget, what do you plan to do with it.
Budgets the most important, otherwise we can all go saying get an 8ight T........
