Cool, thanks for all the info. I finally made the decision to stop by hobby people and pick one up for $109. But they were out of stock. Cant wait to see the pics.

If you want an off roader with a 4WD transmission, I would tell you to get the Kyosho Lazer ZX-5. Its the latest 4wd electric buggy made by Kyosho, using a shaft driven system very similar to the TC3's system. You only need a set of Titanium screws made by speedtechrc.com because the stock screws are piece of trash. Here's the buggy: http://www.speedtechrc.com/store/ebp...il.asp?id=5494

If you wait a bit longer, Tamiya will release their ultimate off road buggy ever. Its name is the TRF 416X, as I've heared. It will have a shaft drive train with double deck chassis and ofcourse the famous and beloved Tamiya quality derived from their 415 touring car and the TB Evolution series of touring cars.

If you are into custom work you could use a tc3 and convert it into a truck with a custom chassis

FYI, there was an article in I think Xtreme RC magazine recently detailing a kit to turn the TC3 into a buggy. Here's a link to the kit:

I put together a TC3 "O" V2 about a month ago and I love it :)



It's a very good 4wd buggy for racing, but I don't think any competitive 4wd 1/10th electric buggy is particularly good for bashing.

I saw that conversion a while ago and was really impressed, if I already had a TC3, I'd be all over it!

The kyosho buggy does not look very durable at all, possibly the least out of all in existance. The xxx-4 G+ is nice, and moderatly durable (if you're not an idiot with it like most). The bj4x4 would be my choice if I had the money, but still made for racing, not bashing.

You did not even try it to give it a verdict, pal.

Why dont you take a look at www.swami-rc.com for information on the 4wd rustler or stampede?
