Rally car long shot buying new please close****

Find a used shed of a Slash 4x4 and use that as a base and build it up over time. Decent off road, and unparalelled upgrades.....

 

10th scale is too small for off road unfortunately, as good as they look.

 

Does it need to have electronics for £200?

If you can find an HPI RS4 Sport 3, that's an ideal rally car. What with its fully metal and sealed drivetrain.

 

You'd be lucky to stumble across a used one, though.

found a new chassis for sale, might just do the build, got a brushless motor and servo so just need an esc and body   "Edit"oops not in stock

They have been on order for 3 months and are out of stock as all the stock has gone to those who pre ordered when out of stock, so another 4+ month wait for the chassis. The brushless rtr being 250 isnt bad value its a decent 3s brushless setup, if the chassis doesnt end up coming into stock or a 2nd had one doesnt show, ill be getting the rtr one. The other pain is 3 weeks wait for spares like dogbones :(

Yeah, I ordered one in Tay Models, in January! Cancelled my order last month, because the HPI Rep still had no clue when they'd be available.

 

But, if you can find one, they're very nice.
