So I've been in the market for sub 1/10 RCs for awhile. I got my daughter a Latrax Teton (cuz parts, that's the only reason), and then I ended up getting my wife a Tacon Soar cuz she thought the buggy was cute. Of course I needed a little guy too so I found a used MERV for cheap and I said what the hell. Well, the three of us went to the park last weekend and let me tell you who had the biggest smile on their face? Yup, the wife. Bottom line? I'm super jealous of the wife's Soar and I hate my MERV.
The quality of the Tacon is so much more than what I expected and the setup is amazing out of the box. That low CG buggy was flying through rough grass fields with out a care in the world. The MERV? Every bump felt like they were 10 times bigger than they were and it would roll if you looked at it wrong. Speed? The Tacon has it in spades, and the motor and esc kept plenty cool on stock gearing. Braking was amazing too, my wife loves doing stories. Durbility? My wife hits EVERYTHING, no issues yet! I dont yet know how the maintenance will go on the Tacon, but it seems open enough, and if it never breaks, who cares?
I'm definitely getting my own Tacon. I like truggies so maybe the bulwark, or possibly the desert buggy. I'll keep the MERV and try to get the suspension sorted (learning experience), but I can't say enough about these Tacon (LC racing) rigs. If you are considering on of these rigs, just pull the damn trigger. They're that good. The Teton is kinda fun too by the way, more so than my MERV I think.
So for those of you who have one of these rigs, what lipos you running? I kinda want one size for all my smaller rigs of possible, but I'll take whatever suggestions you got.
