i have 2 1/8th scale nitro trucks. a team associated monster gt and a team losi aftershock. the monster gt is fast and fun and the aftershock has never ran. bought them both in a package deal. got the monster gt running and tuned and then lost interest in the losi and rc altogether lol

Either way they are expensive.I have a nitro savage I am waiting on the gas conversion and I allready have 1800 in that and kyosho buggie your buying the name but easy to maintaine the kyosho its lasted forever with no rebuilds except motor upgrade.If your looking for performance electric has come a long way.Not the old brushed and nicad batteries anymore.Ive made the switch with some of my helicopters to electric and a boat and one 3d air plane.Went brushless with lipo.The cost is greater for the new brushless and lipo set ups.Then you half to buy batteries and chargers.The batts will pay for themselves eventually when compared to nitro.Either way there is maintenence.Brushless ran with lipo is off the hook fast and run times are a greaaat deal longer off each charge.Record speed for rc is set with electrics but cost is crazy.Cost for brushless conversion with castle speed controll is about 300.Motor around 100 for 1.Batteries are about 70 plus a pop.Charger 150 for a good lipo ballance charger.Not to mension you half to upgrade the gears and drive train.These are just some of the little ones ive had to play with but Im into scale.My planes and helis have thousands invested.Maiden flights are about the scariest part has to be perfect before a 3000-5000 dallar airplane takes its first flight.
