Looking for a Basher - Recommendation?

[TomTomTuning]

I found a used stampede for 135.00, and i can pick up a VXL system for 150.00.
I already have the Lipo's....

What about the gear box on a regular electric stampede? Will that hold up to the brushless?

Thanks..

Best to swap in the vxl stuff. I would look for a pede vxl roller, has all of the stuff you want, and they are not much more than a reg pede...

I'd say e-maxx as well

If you want, the RCM store has an awesome .5 conversion kit that will bring it up to 1/10 size. Very nice as well.

I'm not looking to go Nitro.



The Stampede seems to definitely be the answer.

I'm thinking about bidding on this.

Or this roller

MY main concern is the gearbox holding up to brushless power, so a VXL roller would be great.
