capri-boy Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 First hinted at a little while ago, solid information is now available for Team Magic’s new 1/10th scale monster truck, the E5. The E5 is a 4WD brushless powered MT with waterproof electronics as standard and a 3S capable ESC. Did I mention it's rated for 70+ km/h out of the box? Other features include- 4400kV brushless motor 2.4GHz 3 channel radio Genuine Savox servo Big bore shocks Aluminum motor mount Wheelie bar Dirt/dust filter over ESC LED lights Highly detailed and pre-painted body Fully built and RTR No news on UK pricing or availability as yet, but feel free to form an orderly queue behind me Source View full news article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydoddy69 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 There's no UK supplier or importer .. If you want one your going to have to import it I think there's a place in Germany that deals in Team magic but your need to double check .. Parts supply might be a pain in the backside ? I suppose the the real question now is, is it worth the hassle to import one ? With the new losi mt 1/10th scale knocking on the door of relaese and both on the side of plastic fantastic which will win ? My guess is most folks will go the losi route as its here or will be on release Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PraetoR Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Me likey. Like the fact that it's a new MT that LOOKS like an MT. No truggy rear spoiler, here! However... that nose-down stance... it's a little bit... truggy. Damn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chewbacca Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I'm sure the nose down stance can be sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 2.7kg truck with a 4400kv motor...... a tad too much KV for my liking, i personally would have preferred to see something under 4000. Sent from my Galaxy S5 Neo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having run 2s through my T-Maxx @ 3750kv and seeing how silly that was im not too sure what they are thinking. Its a quick motor. I just would have thought it may have needed a tiny bit more torque.

Bigjimknickers Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 After some searching for an MT that I can use my 3s packs in, this popped up, I like it, any news on release/price yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumper Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 It is on a German model shop at €399 for brushless and €299 for brushed. Seems quite expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well specced 4WD 1:10 MT for about 310 pounds (sorry my kb layout has defaulted to something random!) - actually I don't think that's too horrendous, though it depends on what's included (radio gear? charger? batt's?) - I'd have liked to have seen closer to 250 considering the brand name. What's the Bullet FLux MT run at now? 300? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the Bullet FLux MT run at now? 300? I suppose it's not too bad if it's a new design that hasn't been done before . It is rtr. I was thinking more like £250-£280max. The bullet flux is pretty bad and the design is really really old and I suppose if this has much better reliability it's good. The hpi is only expensive because it says hpi on it.
