yea but im short on funds l0l but ill probably keep the nitro bkoz u had a pretty good point and plus if i do race it'd b good to have it around

LosiFromHell986

If you want to Race Nitro.... one thing: Buy a XXX-NT reeeeallly expensive though

I'm short on cash too, just work hard! I'm mowing lawns around my neighborhood, selling my old stuff I don't use, etc to get a 4wd buggy... The MRC/Academy SB Sport 4wd.. (see thread)

Sport level racing-Electric

I'm in sport level racing, I'm doing good with just $15 EPIC 3000 NiMH stick packs....

so y do u want a buggy i mean whats good about them im not bad mouthin them or nething i jus dont know too much about buggys

LosiFromHell986

well, buggies and trucks have WAY different handling; a Buggy is more wild and more difficult to drive.

I was going to get a XXX, but after reading up, I hear 4wd buggy is a fun and challenging class. Plus my track has a class for them! I don't know, I think it just sounds like a fun thing to try and hell, if I can get one for less than 200 roller I'm good to go! (XXX-4 is around 350, Yokomo is like 250-300)

o0o c all the ads ive looked in the buggys were a lot more expensive than trucks.

buggys sound like fun though and pretty hard to drive so i think ima stick with my truck l0l so far i love it but i jus wish it had a longer run time

LosiFromHell986

Most 2wd buggies are cheaper than their truck sibling...?

Dude, buggy isn't THAT much harder than trucks...


And if you want long run time, go brushless on electric more than a new truck though

cwbrider454

yea i believe Orion makes a brushless motor so how do they classify electric motors? like what does 20 turn and all that means and do u want a low number or a higher number

LosiFromHell986

faster= lower number
slower, more torque usually = higher number
High RPM = Four magnet
Torque = two magnet

The other number after the turn number (12 turn DOUBLE, TRIPLE, etc) has to do with torque as well

Novak makes the Brushless you are thinking of

o0o ok thanx and is it hard to take care of an electric rc bkoz i know u need all the batteries to b the exact same at all times the only draw back is electric doesnt go as fast but o well they're still cool

LosiFromHell986

that's all if you want to be the fastest in like a club race... if you're just for fun, all you need is at the most unmatched 3000 packs

hey, if you can HIT a jump with that nitro I'm impressed! I never could where I jumped... of course I was TRYING to hit jumps at 50+

cwbrider454

l0l i jump mine all the time im always worrying about breakin turnbuckles, arms and all kinds of shit but i love jumping no matter wut i do... i jump my rc, wakeboard, ranger i jus enjoy jumping its sick and i love fast stuff thats y im so hung up on engine mods and stuff like that

LosiFromHell986

yeah, I know the feeling!

cwbrider454

yea but it sux bkoz i always want the newest and best stuff and that not always the cheapest way to go l0l but im really glad i got into rc trucks and stuff mayb one day ill b sponsored who knows...

LosiFromHell986

that's my dream, dude!
