Matt told me they used the 1900 Buggy motors a lot during testing in the Truggy. It will be okay because as mentioned, it's one of the lighter truggies. You will be fine.

Thanks! And that makes since to me! I have the 1900kv in my EB48 right now, and that thing has way more power than I can use. Maybe a 1700kv in the buggy would be the ticket, and keep my 1900's for the truck...............

I wasn't going to do it but something happened, I just hit the buy button. I already have the electronics. I'll run one of the new gen Castle esc's and most likely a Castle 1520 1600kv motor for big tracks or a Tekin gen 2 esc powering a Tekin 2000kv truggy motor on smaller tracks. Doing the steering duties I'll use one of my Savox 1283, great servo but generally needs a glich buster. Ok I'm ready ship it! LOL One thing I would like to see changed, when companies come out with new models make the bodies available asap so a guy a chance to get a nice paint job. I hate getting a new kit then waiting to run it because your painter has the body. Minor bitch but it would be a nice option. Thanks Tekno you guys make the best rc's around imo! Mine will only be used on race tracks never used for bashing, I honestly can't stand that word. Every body has a right to use their rigs for what ever turns them on but to me bashing a top notch race rig is a huge waste, but that just my opinon. Bottom line is really about having fun!!!

Minor bitch......

I hate when people call their Rc cars "rigs". I honestly can't stand that word.


Get it?
