badger906 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 plastic fantastic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cerbrus2 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 plastic fantastic ??? theirs no more plastic on it than any other nitro buggy out their, unless of course you want ally side gurds and an ally radio box (coz they work well with RX's ) The hong nors are awsome buggies and truggies, and this will be just as good as the X1X's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badger906 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 plastic top deck, all plastic radio tray and plastic chassis braces just looks like its had RTR sneezed all over it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dja1000 Posted February 28, 2011 Author Share Posted February 28, 2011 I like it, it will be a great starter car, nothing is shoe horned in, it looks good to work on and hopefully it will be just as solid as the original. And if a X2 kit variant comes out I woujld consider it The question has to be asked though is there a .28 engine hidden in the battery box!!

Most cars have plastic chassis braces and losi i thought had plastic top deck? The plastic though on the receiver box and battery lid does look cheap though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
442Paul Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 i like it, i think allot of the stuff loks like its off a 3d printer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garry Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Plastic = lighter, more flexy, will work better on lower grip tracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Looks good to me, Hong Nors are epic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitroholic Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 It's also a prototype, so no point in judging hte quality of hte plastic until they have a retail item for us to look at. Doubtless the plastic will work well on the track..MCD went all plastic for racing in largescale for that reason. For those who want metl, there will also, no doubt, be alloy upgrade parts for sale. From what I can see, it;s a nice simple layout with everything looking neat and tidy. That's what I like about 'good' RC cars. I like a neat layout that's easy to work on. Shows some thought has gone into the thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imranh133 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 most of these new buggies have similir layouts such as the losi 8 engine slightly moved forward one radio tray piece same airfilter set up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-BEZ- Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Might not be the prettiest buggy, but looks really sturdy and solid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgtuser Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 It's also a prototype, so no point in judging hte quality of hte plastic until they have a retail item for us to look at. Well said! As its a prototype the parts quality will be different than full scale production parts. you can tell the plastics on this one are prototype, so no need to knock it until its out for retail purchase...
