Had it out for the first time today, i think it's pretty durable. You know those Baseball mesh kick back things that you throw a baseball into and it throws you back? Well my sons was in the yard and i decided to go up it. about 10-12 feet high rolled all over and bounced but landed on wheels and kept going. i was amazed.

PS: read instructions had ZERO Problems starting it also. Hopefully round two goes as well.

Default Out of control

Wow, make sure your antenna is not going to come off. Mine did and i lost complete control, went full throttle accross a busy street and launched off the street curb and nailed a fence post about 4 feet in the air. Results, front skid plate and bumper broke, but suspension sytem did not, i must have hit the post perfectly square in the nose.

In any case still happy with product and my buddy got one as well so we were racing around each other and stuff. I would still say that this was a wise investment compared to comperable products at the LHS for a newbeee.

Scuba, Did you replace with red cat spur, or do you try any others? I heard that there was an alternate out there, before purchasing it. after buying it i could not find that post again, but yes i saw that and those are the tidbits i'm lookin for here.
