T4

It doesn't mater, I have owned both Losi and Associated and liked them both. Get whatever brand you are partial to and your local shop carries more parts for.
I currently have a TEAM ASSOCIATED t4

Just spend your money wisely and get a lipo battery and a good brushless system right off the bat. You will be happier and spend less money in the long run.

All you need is a T4 with a good bL system and some Lipo batteries.

Shirk 07-21-2008 07:00 PM

and spektrum too because you don't want to be on any ones frequency.

Get a Team Associated Factory Team T4, a good Li-Po and a charger. The truck even comes with ProLine M3 Holeshots and M3 Edges so most likely you won't even need to buy tires!

Don't hesitate to ask questions either. We are all glad to help out!

losi xxx-t cr is possibly the best truck out there. the t4 is a very good truck but i favor the cr a little more.

Like you said, the slash is getting popular, start with a slash...its a cheap RTR and you can build your battery arsenal* with that...get a BL system for it then upgrade the vehicle if you are still into electric.

T4 or xxxt-cr both are good....

I run a t4 though.


You could also wait alittle for the kyosho truck to come out.

devin4444 07-21-2008 08:22 PM

Get the xxx-t cr. I won 3 out of 6 with the xxx-t cr

bprocket 07-21-2008 09:56 PM

its kinda depressing :cry: that the only truck choices are AE and Losi wheras buggys have AE, Losi, Kyosho, Hot Bodies, Tamiya, yada, yada, yada.

kyosho should be getting ready to release their truck pretty soon, their team drivers have been running them for a while

tdeal823 07-22-2008 08:39 AM

FT T4 or xxxt-cr both are good....

I run a FT t4


You could also wait a little for the kyosho truck to come out it should be a good truck also.

Go brushless for sure its so easy and a lot less maintenance.

what is the move current 1/10 scale nitro truck you have driven and how did you like it? (you stated you have driven Nitro everything). I would say if you had a good experience with that nitro stadium truck, go with the same companies electric offering.

I would say however that since the Slash class is really growing at your track, see about wheeling one, and then wheeling a 1/10 scale stadium truck and see what you think.
