Chances are it's just like all the other generic RC brands out there. They all have that same basic "Redcat Racing" look and they all suck in quality. If you're going to spend 200 bucks on an RC then buy a good brand used.

 

[TWOCANE]

Like what??? I want to run one so bad.

 

[Cupooterluvr]

I'm sure you could find a T-Maxx 2.5 on ebay for less than 200 bucks.

 

[Rolex]

I still can't believe you sold the Maxx you put so much work into.
Buy it now for $155? That should tell you it's crap.. where would you get parts for it?

 

[swarmjt]

crap...........

 

[NoobTC3]

This i would have to say is probably junk. When you take this in comparison with something like a 1:1 car, it will make more sense. You wouldn't buy some crappy knock off part, to put on your car. Two reasons why you shouldn't, and buy a truck or something with a waranty from a dependable relaible company. The knock off trucks take away business from the good companies that put out good products, not to mention they usually end up breaking and aren't of the same build quality. I see this all the time with knock off blow off valves and all kinds of stuff, it's the samething. Some are good, but that's a risk you take.

Kick myself in the head!

That's more like it! Get something there is some support for.

Are you just bashing?

 

[TWOCANE]

yhea its a basher, I am trying to figure out what the stock sittings are for thr losi mach.15. so I have an idea where to start.

 

[Cam]

60mph..lol.. Maybe being pulled behind a car..lol

 

[TWOCANE]

what about a HPI Nitro MT with a bunch of MT2 parts?

 

[olds97_lss]

Not all MT2 parts are innerchangeable with the MT I don't believe. You'd be better off finding a MT2 used than the older RS4 Nitro MT. The MT2 is much better built all around.

Not a bad little rig though. I had the MT and busted countless arms and spur gears. I should have found a MT2 as after driving the MT for a few months, the constant breakage made me lose interest and I got rid of it for $100 as a roller.

The jato on the other hand... while not 4wd, it's tons of fun. Lots of good upgrades out there for it and with just RPM arms, it's pretty durable. I haven't busted anything yet on mine (except servos) and every time I run it, I get a kick out of how fast it goes with a 18TM in it! I recently installed New Era's 1/8 buggy wheel adapters and I really like it. Lost wheelies, but gained a lot of control in high traction areas.

 

[Brushlessboy]

For a start GO engines DON'T. Total crapola, and the suspension is all phillips head screws.
Plus to advertise that those rigs run between 60-70mph depending on model......
PLEEEEASE!
Sorry, my opinion, NO, better deals can be found...

 

[TWOCANE]

What are you refering to.Jato or MT or the ebay?

 

[Scrogg]

Seen one in action, BRITTLE and poor handling, slow.
Avoid it.

 

[TWOCANE]

yhea, I figured that much I got my Jato back from my buddy I sold it to. He gave me everything I gave hime plus some spare parts. I get the HPI MT today, I dont no what the tune should be and I have searched. If somebody might be able to help me on this, it is the .15
