MAAATTTEEEEE!!!!

How awesome are these E-Buggies... 1.5hrs of runtime with 2 x 4S batteries.. one after the other and the motor was only mildly warm... Way better than nitro. Nitro is dead, to me.. LOL

Heaps of power... clearing all the jumps with ease, yet tame enough to let my 8yr old boy use it (albeit he has been playing with pro lvl RC's since he was 5) and the cheeky bugger was beating us... mainly cause he kept it on the track and wasnt going for bulk air over the jumps.

Damage report...
steering screw came loose.. quick fix.
ESC came unstuck.. need to figure out a better way of mounting it.

B4.. broke the front swing arm landing on the downramp of a jump.. the track is build for 1/8ths.. wasnt even game to use my B44.

Concidering selling my 1/10 (B4, B44, Kyosho FW05RR, pimped TT01 VTA) cars to finance another 1/8th E-Buggy for myself. We dont have an official offroad track for 200kms now, and the onroad i will stick to my Xray and Toby (son) will be driving a RJSpeed Legend (the beginner class here)
