Picking a Starter Box
Hey Guys,
I'm searching for a Starter box, as you can see. But I am wondering if anybody sells a version that can be used to start 1:8 Buggies and 1:10 Trucks. I'm also looking for a RTU unit, but that can be disregarded.
Thanks for any help!

Since buggies engine's site vertical with the chassis & trucks are horizontal with the chassis. One start box wont be able to do it. Unless you get really lucky & the things that stick-up somehow match them both. There are universal boxes though, but I dont think that'll help much.

Yeah, I'm looking for a universal one. Sorry, I should have said that to begin with.

Best choice might be to get a motor and wheel without a box, and hold it with your hand.

I would say the Team Magic X5 box. My brother is using it on his MP7.5, and it's awesome, twin 550 motors and 14,4V. It's quite easy to switch between different engineplacements also.

Erlend, do you have any idea where I could find out how much this box is and who carries in in the US?

Hobby People can order the Team Magic boxes. We had one at the Escondido store for a while..

Thanks, Aaron. I'll give them a call.

I have the Associated box and it can be set up for either. It's a pain to go from vertical to horizontal so I just got another box.
