Want to buy first electric rc

[Len87]

Hi there, long time nitro rc fan. Recently sold off my nitro stuff and want to purchase an electric brushless 4wd truck. I've been eyeing the arrma notorious 6s 1/8 truck but then came across the Traxxas Erevo 1/8 not sure what's better. Then I just recently found out the arrma Kraton also comes in a 6s 1/8th scale aswell. Not sure what the difference between the Kraton and notorius are other then bodies. Or if I should go traxxas or not.? Any input?

Thanks!

Traxxas has always been a great buy for me. I own 4 different Erevos . 3 in 1/10 scale(more like 1/8 on roids) and a 1/18 scale with a 9000kv 540 brushless (speed runs)..I think ID pick the arrma notorious.. not sure what upgrades you can get for the arrma. I know all my revos have been moded to kept them running

Go with Arrma, I have E revo brushless and arrma Talion both. Don't get me wrong, luv my revo but the Talion is just a better all around vehicle.

If you can afford it, go with the ARRMA Mojave 6S RTR Short Course truck. Lots of fun and a rugged beast, even if you don't do bashing. Plenty of "aluminum parts upgrades" and motors, servo's and ESC units are available.
