My brother and his family came out to the property a couple weekends ago. He's had street nitro RCs for years so I broke out the little 1/18 basher I have, after that battery was done we took my Atlas and fcx10 k5 down to the dry creek bed, He drove my fcx10 k5 and was amazed and loved it and wanted one, so of course I have to get him one.
None in stock anywhere and just a questionably cheap one on ebay. I figured what the heck, how bad could it be, you know parts are readily available so I could fix if it has issues right.
Well it arrived and I'm pleasantly surprised, Body is beat to hell but the rest looks brand new, not a speck of dirt anywhere and a missing battery cover for the transmitter.
I'm ordering the custom red body off fairrc and getting a replacement battery cover.
Can't wait to see his face when I give it to him.
