stampede

[dannyd]

hi everyone. my mother and i were arguing yesterday about the ntc3 rtr plus. if it came with a remote or not. when my aunt goes through the towerhobbies book with almost all the products and we came across the traxxas electric stampede. i told her i wanted for christmas as a joke ( didnt tell her that though). she says ok sure it doesn't cost as much all everything else in the book. so there is a hi chance i will be getting one.


i was wondering what do you puys think of this truck? on a scale of 1-10. 1 being a waste of money and 10 being good all around truck. let me know what you all think of it.

well for a truck for it's price i didn't think it was too bad,but for being a race truck it's a 1,for a beater truck to show little kid's how to drive it's a 7,and for it being a truck for a normal r/c guy who own's nitro it's a 1.

 

[dannyd]

oh well. i am going to call her and tell her they dont make it no make no more and try to get a savage then. thanks

Thats quite a price jump from a $189 stampede to a $420 Savage. Thatd be a pretty good gift if ya got one. If ya do, I'm gonna call ya a spoiled lil poop..lol..

But yeah, the Stampede is pretty much a beginners truck. Its a good rig to get the hang of Rc's but nothing a more established Rc'er is gonna have to much fun with.

Pretty much anything tagged "RTR" is going to have a remote... Nitro cars are going to require fuel, electrics a charger. Tower has "Ultimate combos" that come with everything you need, right down to the AA batteries for the controller. Those are your best bet.

RTR will always mean that it will have all you need minus the batteries, fuel and ignitor.

In stock form the Stampede is a beginner truck. But with the right hop ups it's one of the most durable truck out there, add brushless and you will embarrass most nitro monsters in a drag race.

[Got Nitro?]
