I'd buy a few tickets for a Losi 8, or a MBX5R/MBX5T.

Not for a Nomadio or T2 tho...

Since the forums have been slow as of late, with the summer finishing up, how about a quick, low cost item like a good battery charger..
This new & improved version of the Great Planes Triton is due to be released real soon...

I like this idea.

It will be a quick lottery for something everyone can use.
 
How 'bout a nice tool set like the Hudy Profits or something else. Qaulity stuff not like Racer's Edge or Monkeyman's fav....Integy
 
My thoughts on a small lotto...
If we lotto lets say an item worth 150$ We sell 50 tickets at 4$ a pieace..Thats 200$...
How many tickets are you going to buy?
IMO it would be better to do a larger package deal.Say A charger,Tools,Fasteddys pit mat...May be a few other items..Sell tix's for 4$ but sell 100 of them?It will give the members a more broad aray of things to look foward too...Not just one small item..This is IMO.
 
Nice idea Z, I like that pitmat idea too. But, I'm only playing devil's advocate here, we're getting back up there in $$$ towards the T2 or Nomadio.
 
I like the Triton2 idea. Even though I have a charger (itellipeak deluxe) I wouldn't mind an upgrade. I'd buy a few tix for that.
 
A high end charger would be nice.

My vote is for a air brush and some paints.Maybe throw in a gift card for a body of the winners choice as well? Then we get to see the results?

Make mine another vote for NOT buying tickets for a Losi8.

I like this idea! Charger, tools, pit mat or all thing just about everyone can use or use more of. Even if the price gets up there it would probably sell out faster than a T2 or Nomadio.
 
Wow, I have never seen a lotto thread so all over the place, lol. It's obvious we all want a lotto, just seems we all want something different. If it were for a Triton I would probably have to pass on it, I am waiting as we speak for Jesse from Rush to get back to me about an ICE charger, so I don't need or want a triton, and I would hate if I won one just to turn around and ebay it. With no clear cut choice for a lotto as there was with the B5 and the site being a bit slow lately this is going to take a long time to sell out imo.
 
My vote is still for the TTech Predator X10 electric buggy. Parts can be ordered directly from their website. Check out the X10 with race spares package.

You do realize that 329 is British Pounds and we're roughly 1.88 on the exchange. That thing is over $600 US. Parts and shipping can't be cheap. At that price we're talking over what either the T2 or Nomadio (loaded) are. It's near MBX5T Prospec price.

Yes Jet I do realize it's an expensive kit but our last lotto sold out very quickly for something that cost 1K. The X10 also has some design features that are currently not found on any other RC. The thing looks fast just sitting on the shelf.

We are just throwing our votes in at this point. I'm not voting for the other items because I either have them already or have no interest in them(T2). You can bet I will still throw down for a few tickets regardless of the lotto prize.
 
Yeah, I was bustin' on ya a bit. The problem though with that one is that people won't want to order stuff from overseas all the time.

This is true, however as NCNitro said above everyone or a very big majority wanted the 5B thus making it a VERY fast selling lotto. NCNitro, everyone wants a lotto, there just isn't a majority yet of what to put up for the lotto.
