I did math: Truck plus Economy shipping: £248 Truck plus 3-4 day Shipping: £264 £399 on Modelsport. I like these a lot always wanted one but time you spend £250 and then another £120/160 on electrics if not more there not a cheap truck by any means. Mind you there not voted basher of the year for nothing !! Did you include import fees and handling ? All this said if I was in the market for a 2wd 1/10th basher this is where I'd put my money for sure ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Last kit I bought from RC mart was labelled as toy and $50 value and slipped through. Its not cheap by any means, combined with 2WD and questionable parts support means It doesnt do much for me, but thought it might be of use to someone on here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hitman Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 I've gone 4000kv hobby wing on mine and keep getting tempted to try 3s, but I know I will break something, I manage to everytime I take it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noj Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 I chucked that combo in the Pro Buggy and hate it.....underpowered on 2s and just a bit crap on 3s... Should have stuck with my trusty sc8wp/4000kv combo as per the PMT.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mydoddy69 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Think I'll hold off until I see the running vid in full but it does look promising what at size spur is on the mt ? Is it the same as the buggy ? Got some funds spare so was looking at the new losi scbe but that's got some heat issues so thought I'd stick with a monster truck and what's better than a nice 2wd basher ! Seeing rcmart have these on offer it would be criminal not to invest don't you think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, boy that thing has got plenty of poke I can't see you wanting more on something so small .. Great vid that very helpful indeed £500 on a 2wd 1/10th scale is pretty high end, have to admit I hadn't thought it would come close to that but time you do your sums it's not far off !

Glad to help Yeah, that's why I'm surprised that Noj is finding his system has a lack of power. Thank you, I appreciate it! Yeah, it's bonkers, really! Especially when you see it hooning around with the Ruckus, as the Ruckus does everything the Pro-Line can... for MUCH less coin! So, really, it is hard to justify the price. Certainly, I wouldn't have gotten the Pro-Line, if it wasn't for my Tay Models deal. It is the best, though.
