Smile HELP NEEDED New to 1/10th RWD E-buggy class, any recommendations?

Hey everybody, I'm new to this forum. I am currently in the 1/8th buggy class and Im looking to get a 1/10 RWD E buggy to start racing at my hobby shop (NorCal Hobbies)

Im currently looking for a buggy but I'm not sure exactly what one to get and would appreciate some advice

Ive narrowed it down to either;

B5M Factory Team

B5M Factory Light

Serpent SRX2 MM


1) Out of these three, is there anything that makes any of these stand out?

2) I heard the serpent is really durable and better quality overall, is that true? Is the composite chassis a real issue?

3) Regardless of parts support, what one would you guys go with? Or any other 1/10th recommendations?

4) Also, I'm looking at the hobby wing xenon 120a esc and 8.5t motor, is that a good combination?

5) Does anybody have any of these that can comment on why they like theirs or why its better? or have you had both and prefer one over the other?

6) Do you think the Factory light is going to be significantly better than the factory team?



I've been searching forums about what buggy to get and i haven't got a definite answer, i would definitely appreciate any help you can offer. Hope to hear from you guys soon


Thank you very much!
