CEN Getting into 5th scale

The offerings look interesting. I think for the price and being 4wd they will give HPI a run for their money.

Didn't see a price, maybe I wasn't looking hard enough...

4WD. Nice. Now is a good time for a solid 10-12s 200A ESC that can handle motor braking without popping something....

those are just rebadged, more expensive FS trucks. the FS trucks are decent for the price, but the CEN ones are overpriced. the FS ones can be had for $600-800 for the 4WD versions while the CEN 4wd versions are about $1350.

Is it just me, or do 99% of 1/5 vehicles look more or less exactly the same, with the 5b being the only exception?

I don't know, the 5B looks a lot like those Chinese buggies all over ebay. :whistle:
