About this deal

Etronix provide crystal free 2.4GHz control with the EX2 Sport radio. In addition the Etronix Photon sensorless brushless waterproof system is installed to provide some low maintenance, high performance speed and power.

Overall the Flux Storm V2 offers unrivaled value for money. If you are looking to go fast for little-to-no-money, look no further. You can buy the BSD Racing Flux Storm on our webstore today (again with free courier delivery) or see it an action in our review article earlier this year.I could go round in circles for hours with this I suppose, I need to just buy the thing and stop trying to run before I can walk. In addition if you want to tune and upgrade your Vantage, FTX provide a wide range of carbon and aluminium upgrades that will bring your ride up to a whole new pro level. Features They aren't strong models, can break easily when bashed about but for the money and affordability of spares you can't grumble, don't forget also the Vantage is a buggy, it has agility in mind, not strength and the Carnage is based off this design too.

You can buy the Traxxas Bandit VXL brushless buggy on our webstore, it comes with nearly everything you need to charge and drive it, just remember to buy 4xAA batteries. If we built one from scratch out of upgraded parts, would it be more cost effective (possibly only just) than buying another RTR and upgrading from there because we don't have the initial outlay, and it would mean we always had a runner, and had one to copy from/refer to as we build the second one. First thing I notice is the car is fairly solid. I'd expected it to be a bit flimsy and rattle abit but it didn't. Thesame 4wd shaft drivetrain features metal diff gears and front universal driveshafts, while an integrated slipper helps protect the drive from possible damage.https://www.modelsport.co.uk/ftx-vantage-1-10-4wd-brushed-buggy-2.4ghz-waterproof/rc-car-products/379131 Its a cheap plastic flap ( which will break) with twist knob trims and a full rev/norm throttle and steering switch. In addition if you want to tune and upgrade your Vantage, FTX provide a wide range of carbon and aluminium upgrades that will bring your ride up toa whole new pro level. It does feel a little on the cheap plastic side. I'm sure its fit for purpose but you wouldn't pay more than a tenner for it. Etronix provide crystal free 2.4ghz control with the EX2 Sport radio.

There is a seperate box the holds the transmitter, bind plug, charger units and charger mains cable. RC buggies are often the first RC model anyone is exposed to, whether it be the Tamiya Sand Scorchers of the late 70s, Losi’s XX’s of the mid 90s or more recently HPI’s Baja 5B. The sector is enjoying a resurgence of late, with Tamiya reproducing some of the classic originals for grown ups who wish to relive the past or introduce their own children into the world of RC. We decided to put together our personal top 10 list of buggies tested over the last 5 years. Our top 10 at a glance Get ready for some serious off road buggy action with the Brushless Edition FTX Vantage. Taking RTR styling to a competition level, the Vantage brushless boasts some amazing features for the ultimate ‘Ready-to-Run experience. The issue I have with them (and other similar models) is with the plastics used in their construction. They tend to be harder and more brittle than they need to be, which leads to more damage when they crash.

The Vantage is one of the most popular first buggys out there. Whether or not that means its actually good at the job is somewhat subjective - its popular because its cheap and available. Lots of people have broken theirs, but then new drivers do break cars - its not necessarily the cars fault! In all practical terms the design and build quality are no different from most other models in the same price range. The problem you have is a ton of unknown factors such as rolling resistance, aerodynamics (which become quite dominant at high speeds), drivertrain losses etc. It's pretty hard to determine what gearing you need to get each of those motors to the 60% max rotational speed sweet spot. As a general recommendation on here you will find people favouring a lower Kv motor (i.e higher torque) to give the most gearing flexibility. I'm looking for the best way into electric rc cars as a hobby for me and my son (aged 9) to share. We'd be using it on/off-road locally and not racing.
