Parts for the Thunder Tiger ST1

[TWxxx-nt9]

Hey all,

I'm looking at buying a relatively low priced 1/8th truggy. I'm stuck between the Exceed RC Battalion and the Thunder Tiger ST1. I like the fact that there are so many parts readily available for the Exceed (aluminum upgrades even) but I wonder about the availability of parts for the Thunder Tiger. All around it looks to be a bit nicer of a truggy but I'm not sure. If anyone could let me know of parts availability for the TT ST1 I would appreciate it.

Thanks a lot

Travis

The Thunder Tiger looks really cool. Kinda HPI RS4 MT-ish...

The ST1 is the truggy version of the S3 buggy. I have the S3 and it's a great vehicle. I purchase all of my TTR parts from amainhobbies.com

So would everyone here suggest I purchase the Thunder Tiger ST1 over the Exceed Battalion?

I think for the money it's a better buy, but I wanted everyone else's opinion.

Thanks

I would go with the Thunder Tiger for sure. Easier to get parts for when it does break .....and it will. Just the nature of the beast.

The ST1 is one of the toughest truggies available. Every review I've ever read on it backs that up as well. The only hop ups I have on my S3 are the forward/rear and rear/rear alum toe blocks. I've been wanting to upgrade to the aluminum steering set as well but just havn't got around to it. I would definately go with the ST1.
