Anyone hear anything else about the XTM X-Factor. Its a cool design but man it looks like when you wreck, parts would be flying everywhere. I was gonna get one but it was brand new and i didn't want to be the ginny pig and work on it every day i run it.:rolleyes:
 
it looks too funky for me. I think that it might be good for slow crawling around on rocks and stuff, but for overall performance, it looks like it would suck like Christian's wife
 
I'm not sayin anything on that comment:x But that engine would be to powerful for rock climbing. It would end up flippin over unless you can rig it up with an emaxx tranny to have low and high speed.
 
I dont know, but I think that is one ugly piece of work. I can't say anything about perfomance though. Obviously they went through a lot of R&D to come up with this contraption, but to me, the body just sits too high and looks really weird.

My $0.01.
 
X-Factor

Just got one from LHS. Some one ordered it then changed his mind - his loss. I'd say the engine is about half way broken in - 3 tanks of 20% so far. It flips over backwards even with the carb set very rich - definitely no lack of power with this engine. I've only run it on pavement - still alot of snow left - but it does'nt feel top heavy. Will find out more when the snow melts.
 
Welcome Col. Buckshot! You've come to a great forum

I think your the first person I have heard of getting one of these. Let us know how it goes. I have not really heard anything on it.
 
It looks slow as hell in the video, I was watching it the other night and I got so bored after like 30 seconds! I'm glad to hear that they do actually have some power but I couldnt tell from the video.
 
the video was a screwup the driver was a novice their was a disscusion abour this on the radio control zone. Alot of people like them and they ahve great customers service:thumbsup:
 
i have an x factor 2 its not that top heavy all kinds of power i also have the hard bodyz roll cage too and swamp dawgs on it i love it
