Which truggy?
I'm seriously thinking about selling off a good bit of my RC equipment and buying another truggy. I'm thinking about an 8ight-T as I can pick one up for right around $400 shipped right now. Whatever I buy would be used for pretty much bashing only. Any suggestions would be appreciated. FWIW, I already have a Jammin X1-CRT.

Not sure if Losi has a new truggy in the works since they just bought out a new buggy. If I was getting a truggy it would either be the 8IGHT-T or Kyosho. $400 shipped is pretty good price
|
Wow, only 1 response? Thanks for the input DB.
|
whats wrong with the one you have ? .
|
For bashing I'd go with a hyper ST or a muggy, maybe. I'm thinking of selling my hyper ST as a roller, LMK if interested. :angel:. BTW: It's set up for saddle packs but can be switched back without modification and little effort.
|
I have not gotten a chance to get any thorough testing done with my 8ight-T because its ESC was sent in to CC, however, if it is as tough as the 8ight buggy. You really can't go wrong. I think the 8ight is one of the toughest rc's I have ever owned. Crash after crash, it just keeps coming back asking for more. And especially since you will be bashing with it, I think it will fit your needs perfectly. :wink:

I have a hyper st for sale as well. 2 bodies, one rtr and a clear pro. A few spares, shocks etc. I have had a few truggies so far, and this is my favorite so far. I would keep it, but I have too many...
|
RC8T.
I have a X1-CRT as well and I already know my next truggy will be a RC8T :mdr: |
My two cents
How about the XT8 :yes:
http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13984 I beat the fricken beans out of mine and holds up pretty good.. A new one is a lot so no :no: there, but a used one from Ebay or elsewhere for $350.00 add on some 808 shocks for around $100.00 and you've got one BAD ass Truggy..:yipi: Just a thought.. |
I would love too have an xray truggy but the price of the losi Is great right now. I was also wondering if they had something new coming.
|
love the Kyosho st-rr. and before people say they are pricey and parts are not easy to find..... for one you get what you pay for and you have to break a part to buy one. Besides Amain carries everything for them. Handle like a dream and tough as nails. But i hear the Hyper ST pro Kit is very good as well and i will be picking up one of those to compare to the kyosho.(just dont know when yet, funds are low)

if you just want something cheap for bashing you can pick up a GS xut from amain for $215, just put aluminum rear hubs, and they are solid..... plus mike makes a mount now
|
i have a new (well, mostly put together - but never finished) xray XT8 i'm selling. i'm sure you saw it, though. just thought i'd throw it out there. it's a bit more than your 8ight-t, though...but your current truggy could be the basher and this could be your racer...? :yipi:
i have the rcm motor mount and hitec 5955tg for it, too. |
Dang, I'd take the xt8 if the price is right lol.
