Nick Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Beefed up transmission is a great upgrade out of the box. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kpowell911 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Wonder how much these will be? As £329 for the 2WD Rustler VXL is already a lot, and this now has a "£100+" Transmission upgrade....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz! Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I’d like to see more details about the re re of the rally. Hopefully wheels and tyres will be a bit easier to source… I do quite like the purple Bandit to be fair, I don’t see me buying any Traxxas rtrs in the near future, only ones left for me would be another summit or a udr/xmaxx (doubt I’ll ever get my hand on anywhere near enough to buy one though ) @rccar4life, it’s not just Traxxas though is it? I mean axial have wound out the living daylight out of jeep shells, or under a different license for extra money like the old bronco. I always wonder why it’s only Traxxas people get wound up by, yep, I get the “morals” of the company not being to everyone’s taste, prices and (some) electrical issues be off putting for some. me, well I’m firmly in the Traxxas camp, more than happy with my line up.

Its sad They could do alot more Not first time Traxxas makes me depressed with their OLD new Well there are new young drivers out there who will enjoy them im sure anyway. These news are nothing to us Experienced in this Hobby They don't need to do anymore, these are solid platforms and have proven themselves relevant for years. They have been facelifted several times, I think people would be surprised how basic the original 2wd models were, drivetrain couldn't even handle brushed and NIMH! You said it yourself, there are new (and old!) drivers where these models still hit the nail on the head because Traxxas and other companies bother to keep improving them.

lorrylemming Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Hoping the bandit has been updated to 12mm hexes, I quite fancy those wheels for my other buggies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I saw the Bandit I liked the wheels and wondered if they'd fit on my boys FTX Comet. 12 mm hexes on there too. Here's hoping!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
