well i had a losi nightcrawler, it was great for awhile. but there's hardly any aftermarket on those. i have studied a long time before i bought this one yesterday. so far i love it. does anyone have the issue of the poison spider body rubbing the front tires? i do already know I'm ordering a better steering linkage. it flexes way to much even with the stock servo. Yea it's already bad. Last edited by THX_138; 08-22-2014 at 01:23 AM. |

I would suggest before the upgraded steering replace your servo. The stock one won't take alot of abuse and most people complain they stop working almost immediately. I just ordered this solar d772 a few people have said its pretty good and can't beat the price 19$. Sent from my Moto X using Tapatalk |

The solar d772 is a great pick. I bought 3 at ounce to change all my trucks over. It is not waterproof out of the box but that is easily fixed with liquid electrical tape and dielectric grease. You need a 23tooth arm. I recommend running it with a BEC so you can get 7.4 volts to it, that is when it really shines.

check the classified ads here on a regular basis, you can pick up some good deals on some good used items, check the vendors section to find new parts created by real rc enthusiasts, not in some factory overseas. |
