RCbutcher Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Finding a new rc is as easy as watching youtube you soon learn the names of the rcs then you just Google them followed by topic you want. Unboxing videos are always good too. I usually search like. Rc name. Reputation of model Parts supply and upgrades avaliable Durability and versatility Prices from new to used on ebay. These threads will always be the same thing over and over again people will post what rc they like the most which isn't always the one the op will like. YouTube channel rc nightmare is great because they Show nearly every rc released but not the most recent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
migga Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Check out the Vaterra Halix 1/10 MT. BigSquidRC has a good review and hop up series on it. I recently got one and highly recommend it. It's a large 1/10, takes 2S & 3S lipos, looks good, bashes well and is fast - had mine up to 85km/hr. Also comes with Spektrum TX and AVC RX.

Rattymatty Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 Thanks migga il have a look on net for one,where did you get yours?i hear vaterra is good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jony nitro Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Even the Ecx Ruckus looks ok for the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
migga Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 No worries Rattymatty Got mine off Ebay from an Aussie hobby shop over east. Did a bucket load of research on this and other similar trucks before purchase. My brother has a Tmax and a mate has the Stampede but they all reckon the Halix poops all over them. Only thing I've done to mine is put a motor heatsink with fan on, bumped up to 38WT shock oil and put a 18T pinion (AU$2) to run 3S lipos with cooler temps. It still hammers on 2S though. If got any questions just let me know mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rattymatty Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 I think I might have found my new toy migga,looking at the vaterra and come across the Glamis fear,looks really nice and you get everything with it for 250 quid.anyone got one?

migga Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Nice car, had a look at it myself but decided on a MT rather than a buggy/truck. For the same price I would get a 4WD basher able to handle 3S and the bonus of AVC. Even at 1/8 the Glamis is same size as 1/10 Halix just without the ride height. Check out the BigSquidRC review on the Glamis Fear. Let us know how you go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
