Its all a sweet thing to me... But... Im tryig to figure out whats beter still after all these yrs. i run a savage x 4.6 at the moment and am in the process of building a savage flux.. I always likes the flux's and i figured id build another one seeing that i had to sell the one i had. Now my question is.. What is better.. Nitro vs electric? I love my nitro but i feel that nitro is fading and electric is over coming everything in rc now a days.
if got the budget and requirement, have both GP and EP. nothing can be compared to a nitro but having an strong powerful EP like a flux is equally fun from a different perspective. at our local track fun races, we mix both EP and GP as the participants is not that many - I have problem with EP as it will be drowned by the sound of nitro pipes. I use my flux for bashing only on and off the track and for fun races i use nitro. In the event my 8 year old wants to join the fun races, he will use the EP Flux...other people may have different perspective/requirement.
