2-Speed Forza Buggy

How much fuel does the buggy hold?

 

[MustangMan]

I couldn't find anything on the Exceed web site listing capacity. Your best bet is to measure it by the markings on the side of your fuel bottle and see how much it takes to fill it...

Isn't the Forza a buggy made by HPI?

 

[MustangMan]

No, it's Exceed RC is the company. AFAIK, HPI's only other brand is Hot Bodies...

I think they are straight from JP and may not even have stateside offices? There's some pretty glaring spelling/grammer errors, like "blushless" motors, etc.

Not saying it isn't a nice budget product or anything, I have no experience with them. But their site seems to be lacking in hard details and the "about us" doesn't even list an address, US or otherwise...

What percentage of Nitro Gas does it take?

 

[hamz9561]

I don't think that percentage of nitro matters nitrobug. If I remember correctly, my X-Ray XB8 has a 200cc tank. That is typical for a racing buggy.

 

[Metalhead Matt]

I'd save up for a name brand rc. Exceed has a reputation of under building their vehicles. 20% is the standard nitro content and is what most rtr's are setup to run on.

 

[nitrobug77]

Ok, thanks. What other name brand is out there that is pretty cheap?

 

[neobart]

125cc is std. for buggy's some market at bashers may have bigger tanks, but 125 is the limit set by ROAR, IFMAR, EFRA...etc.

Thanks

Some of the less expensive brands that have a good parts availability (stock and aftermarket) are Losi, HPI, Associated and Traxxas. There are some more expensive brands for buggies, but for general bashing these have some good quality rigs.
