New line from Horizon Hobby - Vaterra

[nissan_driver24]

The sedans is a joke in my eyes... only cool thing about it is the body, other than that it's a lame shaft driven, full of plastic, brushed on-road car. There are tons of other options for those types of cars that would be so much better with a already available aftermarket backing.

The 1/14 scale looks like what I was thinking losi should have done with the mini8 which seems like they did is make a rally car out of that chassis.

I also am not usually a fan of things in stock form but WOW there are a lot of things I like about this. Even look at the front suspension and the way it's designed for clearance. Scale? Beadlocks? Two speed? Yes please. I might not get in on a pre order, but I definately like it so far.

I'm interisted to see how the driveline holds up to some 3s abuse unlike the wraith plastic trans gears and iffy lockers.

Heres a video which shows just how soft the suspension is.

3S with lockers will break the diffs. But open diff and 3S will be just fine as long as it's not a 9000kv motor.

The upgraded lockers in my wraith handle 3s just fine but its nice when you don't have to buy a bunch of upgrades just to handle 3s.

Huh? Locker or diff, take you pick. You can't have both in a single axle.

Who's planning on getting one right away and who's going to wait and see how the reviews turn out ? I'm going to hold off on my Exo FoFF and see how these shake out.

i think im going to wait to buy this one and see what people think of them. does anyone know how long the shocks are?

 

[dezfan]

OMG, I love it! :shock:

It's everything the Wraith should have been.

Just as I was trying to get out, this damn thing is going to drag me back in! :ror:

Huh? Locker or diff, take you pick. You can't have both in a single axle.

You can have a locked diff in the front. A locker inside the diff; when you remove the gears or diff internals and install a locking type of insert.

Based on what?

Based on the fact that this is not a r/c intended to be used with high RPM setups. I'm sure it has it's limits. It's a rock racer. I've never seen a 1:1 rock racer with a Bugatti motor in it. Have you?
