Whats up their sleeve ? VP

[bikepilot]

After getting over the sticker shock and thinkin about it, the price isn't bad for all that you're getting! Just a big lump to start but doesn't look to need anything else! Nothing to really upgrade so money saved! I'd like to see a compairasion of all three of the new kits. to see how they are different form each other. Or if they aren't so different.

I was just thinking the same.
and about the only reason the enduro kit can't be even with these, not a scale looking transmission and doesnt have the high clearence frame rails.
Other than those 2 reasons, the enduro seems a GREAT value!
But if you have the means, this vs410 pro is a no brainer.
Then the SSD trail king falls somewhere between the two both in features and price.

Still not an easy choice any way you slice it!

** would it be sacrilage to put a vs410 frame kit on the SSD chassis?
Lol best of both worlds!!!

Enduro is higher clearance than the scx10 rails the SSD is using.

That's why you would put vs410 rails on the SSD ;)

The VS4-10 Pro and the Trail King are sweet, but I’m getting the Enduro Kit.

V1 toyzuki, 2.5 t case and some form of ar44 axles. Straight up murderous combo.

The Enduro can't be beat for the price!

The trail king cant be beat for its price.

I'm pretty sold on this - though I do wish it had the D44s over the F9s. Is there an advantage to the F9s that I'm missing? I always thought they looked a lot less scale than a typical pumpkin and sacrifices some cool factor. I could get over it tho - but damn did I build a Raw Builder's Kit at the wrong time (like, last month before any of this).

You don't know this yet unless you've owned one and tested it for months. None of these trucks are worth the money until they prove it. Fanboyism has turned into a pure hype machine.

The Pro kit looks great and they fixed my major complaint - the transmission. This has to be a super capable rig and I may pick one up come winter if I get can out of my RC rut.

All 3 new releases are the best for their price point imo.

The Enduro is better than the SCX10 II and TRX-4 Sport which both have years of proven track records?

F9s are a real housing made by Currie hence the name machined into them. They are scale accurate, with the front being offset they are even more scale accurate than rock jocks.

As I see it so far it's an improved SCX10 as long as gears hold up. Especially the kit. I wouldn't include the TRX-4 due to portals. Not everyone wants a truck with portals.

In your opinion, yes. Some people are infatuated with portals and won't run a rig without them.

If the Enduro proves itself to be capable and reliable we can call it a good value. I'd call it unproven at this point.

Portals have advantages and disadvantages so I'm not sure why you'd automatically discount the TRX-4. Either way the Enduro will have to compete with the TRX-4 for sales.

I own an Axial and have NEVER owned a single AE product so I am not basing that statement on "fanboyism". I am just going off the features the truck has and the many reviews I have watched. I don't see there being a fatal flaw that would make the truck so bad. Yes, the official verdict has not yet been determined but to say it is not worth the money is a stretch.

Only if it breaks too easily. The durability is what's unproven.

When you start out your statement with Only and If, your speaking without any facts at all.
