| Get them while you can
Just saw Horizon has Ascender kits and the RTR K5 on sale. If you've been debating a Blazer RTR or kit, now is the time. https://www.horizonhobby.com/product...d-kit-vtr03023 Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Last edited by Ascender'nMN84; 05-10-2018 at 07:48 AM. |

Damn that's cheap for a kit! Amazing deal which is still one of the best built scalers out there.

There is a 10% off coupon on eBay that can be used too. A new ascender kit for $225, hmmmm. Edit: Looks like this coupon is limited to certain sellers, however if one of those 15% off anything coupons pops up while these are still around. Last edited by svt923; 05-10-2018 at 08:29 AM. |

I would imagine Vaterra will re-release the kit will a different body no? It’s hard to imagine they do away with the Ascender kit altogether. Rich has recently pointed out that a Ascender II isn’t immanent so its too soon to phase it out.

Seems like an amazing deal. I hope I don't miss it EXCEPT...doesn't this mean a new version is on the 'Horizon'? Tough call! I'd hate to get one and then watch a new, amazing kit version come out with all sorts of cool upgrades...What to do, what to do?

| Re: Get them while you can Rich said the K10 body is sticking around, but that has never been offered as a kit. TBD if they offer a K10 kit.

the original ascender is still holding its own out there against newer rigs with "more features"... if i was in the market right now (read: i'm broke) i would snatch one up! | |

Absolutely amazing deal for this kit. Unfortunately... I need to cut back.

Dang. I almost want to buy one just for the sake of having a "spare" body at that price!
