General RC Information
doing both of these in the same build sense aside from body, wheels and tires they're built pretty much identical.
bought these during the Dromida 4.18 craze like 10 years ago. snagged them off tower hobbies scratch and dent for sub $100 each. ended up throwing the Dromida brushless system in them, RioRand MG90S micro servos (4 for $20 on amazon back in the day) and aluminum drivetrain kit (aluminum drive shaft, dog bones, axles, spur gear) and aluminum shocks. and the truck has sense gotten hardened shock shafts. and the buggy has added front body mounts and custom fabed fiberglass skid plate.
the Dromida brushless system is kinda light switchy, especially on the bottom end and way over powered. they're fun little cars, but very hard to control.
