I got one I haven't saw here. Somebody asking for an advice what to buy. You ask for a budget and how seriously they want to take it... ? "well not sure, but quite a lot, so no problem and I would like to race on top level, so really seriously" ok so you link him 500$ truggy, 300$ radio and 300$ combo... no batteries or servo... they send you back a link to chinese RTR combo 1/8 truggy for 300$ with a "I guess this is looking about the same, but way cheaper, what do you say?" grrr

and destroying my tekin rotor 4times during season... I hate breakdowns which was not my mistake.. the other ones too, but at last I am the one to blame to try topspeed on straight (thanks wallot for bringing speed gun) and crashing my truggy at 60km/h flat out.. :)


and if you are going to borrow you car (like my nephew or my girlfriend who I just cacannot say no...) turn it down to 20% throttle and with little kids, just give them the wheel and operate the throttle. It work just fine and you don't have to be "rude" by refusing it.
