Just had my mid-life crisis and bought myself the FTX Vantage Brushless buggy!!!!
That car is fast!!! Lots of fun!
I was hoping to use it with the kids (7 & 9yo) but it might a touch too fast for them....
My dear daughter managed to snap the front suspension lower arm..... and I managed to do the other one..... lol
Which brings me to the replacement parts.
I don't really want to change them all the time. I know they will break, they can be fixed..... but I'd like to minimise that if I can.
Beside better driving, would replacing most part with aluminium be advisable?
The only concern being parts lifetime. Weight and speed not really an issue as it won't be used in races - just a home toy.
And if aluminium parts are a good choice..... is there an aftermarket full kit that can be bought for them? The individual parts are pretty pricey when you add them up... if there was a kit comprising most part at once, from FTX or other, that would fit the Vantage, I'd be very interested I think.
Thank you for your time and hopefully advices!!!
