Default compare 1:6 and 1:18

hi, I wanted to know the difference between 1:6 and 1:18. I know that 1:18 don't have porportional control, are smaller, manual trans, and a smaller batt, but what about tire size and speed and torque?

The 1/6 has a better center of gravity. Other than that, I think they perform about the same on obstacles their size.

1/6 is alot bigger than the 1/18. I would recommend the 1/6 over the 1/18 any day

Just my .02

from my knowledge...

the 1/18 is cheaper

the 1/6 has a better electronics setup

the 1/18 has more options for bodies, cause a 1/10 scale body on a 1/6 scale trucks doesn't look right, but with 2.2's the 1/18 can look good with a 1/10 scale body

the 1/18 is also easier (IMO) to upgrade... coming from a Newb point of view

I happen to like the 1/18 better... the 1/6 is just a little too big. I'd say that when it comes right down to it, personal preference is the biggest factor.
