toughest 1/18

[rootar]

i FINALLY broke a rear lower arms this mourning on my trinity now, its the only thing that has broke or messed up since i built the new chassis, ill stand behind what i said that this truck is tough and really handles well with a new chassis, only gripe i have found on the truck is the open gear diffs, they are tough and handle the brushless no problems but it is hard to get used to cornering with them under power, you kinda gotta point and shoot drive it around the track to be consistant, but hey it doesnt throw parts 24/7 like my mlst and it was alot cheaper.

i have had my eyes on my xray m18t tho just the kit and i could put all my spare electronics in it.......

You guys make me want to buy some mini rcs again, but I have to keep reminding myself why I sold all of them. They may be able to take a beating, but nothing like a savage can handle!

Very true but you can buy a vendetta for about $150, bulletproof it for about another $150. Get a Stupidly powerful motor for $70, good esc $75 Flightpower Lipo 3s 1600 mah $50. Less than $500 you have a fast and tough basher.

I totally admit that I really really want an flm savage but:
Savage ss (after selling the motor) $300, FLM chassis $200, MMM + motor $300, Good lipo $250, misc servos etc $150

For that you can get 2 minis and enough lipos that you and a friend could bash for hours on end without having to recharge.

I do understand what you are saying though when all is said and done; when you put a savage next to a mini it is hard to justify the mini.
