1/10th 2wd basher?

Hii

 

Love my Arrma Big Rock, can't really fault the thing. 

Looking for something similar in 2wd, just to scratch an itch. 

 

The Rustler/Stampede VXR appeals, I notice an updated model will be available at the end of the month, https://omegle.website/ that appeals. 

 

I'd initially considered a Mad Bull, but I think something a bit tougher would be a better choice. https://ome-tv.org/ I love my Lunchbox, but fancy something a bit more capable.

Not fussed if rtr or kit, not bothered about brand as long as spares will be  available for some time.

Depends .....as I have a lot of fun running an old nitro Firestorm I converted to brushless. It's 2WD, tail happy, and on 3S ....a challenge to drive. Which is why it's fun.

 

I didn;t want the stock Firestorm Flux, as it hangs the motor out the back, while my conversion has it mid mounted.

 

Rustler is a fun truck, but buy a good used one with some RPM upgrades. New they are just silly money for what they are. An old, outdated design, with poor electrics. Traxxas should either drop the price or upgrade the spec, but they keep getting buyers, so they just jazz up the stickers on the shell and bank the cash. But if you were thinking of spending Traxxas kind of money ......well....THIS thing is utterly drop dead gorgeous to my eyes:

along with a reasonable brushless setup and servo.

I just sold this Rustler VXL for £240. It has a fortune of upgrades on it. Just so you can see what to expect used:
