yeah its the cost, i m from singapore but i m the only one racing in my country.
I have to race with the nitro as theres no 1/8 EP race in Singapore. The cost of zippy,medusa motors, esc & spares is heavy.
Even major brands are coming out with converted kits or RTR EP versions the esc & motors are for bash only.
I have 1/10 ep buggy but have yet to race it. But the cost is lower, my 2s batts, motor & esc is smaller & cheaper.
Both class are different & different fun
whats a hobby wo spending
