Is This Car Any Good?

[Spazz]

I'm planning on getting the Kyosho V-One RRR 1/10 4WD Onroad Chassis Kit. Does anyone have this? How is it? What upgrades will I need in order to run it? Thanks in advanced!

my freind has the V-one S and he says that when its tuned right it flys and drifts very will he need to buy a new set of tyres every time he uses it coz he drifts so much

I have one.
One of the best handling cars right out of the box.
I have the RRR WC edition so I don't know what the regular version has (or doesn't have for that matter).

Cool, what parts will I need in order to run it? Is there anyway you can post pics of it?

 

[RatzoRC]

I'm selling mine if your interested.

nah, I dont buy used cars. Thanks anyways. Can you post some pics? Also, can you make a list of parts I need for it to run?

When you buy the kit, you will need the following:
Engine
Steering and throttle servo
Glow plugs
Igniter
fuel
Radio/receiver
Rechargeable flat pack

I don't remember if it comes with a body, because I bought 2 with the kit anyway.
It does (WC edition) come with tires.

As for the pics, my car is in my basement, and I can't get to it right now.

Thanks, what engine do you think will work good with it?

That depends if your going to be racing at ROAR sanctioned events.
I don't know if they allow 5 port engines.
If your playing, I would suggest a Sirio .12 outlaw.
Racing legal, Novarossi .12 3 port. ($$)

Sorry for asking you so many questions but where is a good site that I can buy stuff for it?

Towerhobbies, Nitrohouse, Mugen

Just a Q

Have you ever owned a nitro car?

No, thats why I need a lot of info.

For a first car, your certainly going for the top.
I don't want to insult you, but there is a lot to know before going
for a top race car.
I would buy a popular car and get used to the basics before taking such a leap.
Like a tc3 perhaps. Get your feet wet first.
It's like getting you drivers license and buying a stock car.
Just my 2 cents.

I forgot to mention that you will need a starter box.

Getting going with the RRR set up will cost you well over a thousand dollars.
