Well, why am I not surprised? I have a RedCat Tornado S30 and let me tell ya. I DO NOT CARE what ANY body says, my tornado has outbashed, outran, and FLAT OUT out performed any of the 4 traxxas "toys" that I have owned, and the one keyosho. Everyone talks smack about 'em but has never even used one. Mine came with a cheap radio (2.4ghz.) but it still works perfect. I have had to replace the servos (because I drove the buggy through a really deep mess) and they got soaked. Go to hobbypartz.com, get the 12kg torque all metal gear t-pro's for 11 bucks each problem solved. As for the guy with the dogbone problem, go to mainstreamrc.com and get part #106015, or 166015. They are what you need. For that matter dude, you are doing something wrong. I have just straight up beat the hell outta my tornado s30, and I honestly dont see how you are tearin' up dogbones! Bottom line, you can waste anywhere from 5 to 6 hundred bucks, and STILL have to buy spare parts occasionally, or spend 2 hundred bucks, buy the usual spare parts that everyone in this hobby has to buy and learn the do's and dont's just like everyone. Either way, but I will say this, ANYONE who has under $400 in their rig is welcome to see my $200 1/10 buggy on the offroad track!
