Some have had glitching problems with the RTR version. Seems to be related to the Spektrum RX. The radio (TX) that it comes with goes through AA batteries pretty fast too. Other than that the truck is solid. Buy the truck. Buy some Nano tech or Gens Ace 6000+ batteries and go have some fun.

This.

Get a Pro4 4600 from Tekin and be a happy camper

Or if you want super insano power get a Tekin T8 2650 1/8th buggy motor and run it on 3S.

The esc is basically a rebadged MMP, so glitching can be solved with a glitch-buster... A $5 part most hobbyshops carry.

I was somewhat reluctant on getting the Pro4 versus the 550's, but since I did its been full throttle with no looking back. But if you gotta have a 550 can, they're both good choices.

Where are you guys getting the bearing to fit in the motor mount, having trouble finding a 3mm, I see lots of 4mm wide, would that work?

I have the TLR lightened chassis coupled with the TLR torque brace on the rear of my truck. I have broke the upper rod end (that attaches to the rear diff housing) three or four times now, seems like the ends are screwed very tight onto the shaft to get it to fit, perhaps causing the problem?? Anyone else have this problem? Any ideas for a solution?

I have one on B/O since black friday. Any info anyone?
I asked about these on their Facebook page right before Christmas and they said they were in production and should be at retailers by the 2nd week in January...I decided I didn't want to wait any longer and grabbed my RX8/Tenshock setup and I'm glad now because January is almost over and there's still no sign of the Copperheads.

Just to clear things up. I believe bill cleared up all the misunderstanding about bce chassis. Everyone is happy.
