It was 110 shipped from stormer hobbies, I think that they are going to discontinue the chaos, for 275 it was way too expensive, for 100 it is a good deal!

They were selling it at my hobby shop for 79.99, so I asked if it was any good and I got a "I wouldn't buy it"...

They don't really look all that great. The rims and tires they come with make it look like something from Walmart.

Lol looks better than the trinity Now, i was told over the phone BY trinity "its just a cheap RTR to run up and down the street it wont hold up to anything else" , its not saying much when they call their own products a cheap RTR not made to handle any real driving.

Haha, that is funny

I only bought the little chaos cause it was cheap. I am sure that the diffs can't hold up to any real power. Most likely knock off of the mlst diffs! That is another POS, the mlst, what a joke. I had everything done to mine and it was still a turd.

well my friend had one and i drove it, clocked it at 37, not bad. couldnt run for **** on anything but pavement. even slick concrete, it just does donuts. itd be fun to put a 380 BL in it and some foam tires, (rc18 foams maybe.) 6s lipo with lutach's mini esc. maybe some RC18 MIP super diffs would work with a little bulkhead modding?

I get a little HV crazy, but throwing 6S on this buggy seems suicide .

i seen it for $79 shipped, and was going to get it. the day i was going to order they raised the price to$89 and i hesitated to realize that i was bound for another shelf queen that i can't keep going. far too many posts about the diffs going out in them, and alot of them are soon after or during break in when there's not that much power going through them. i held off, but still would like to have one for some reason.
