I did the horizonhobby membership thing. Got the military discount for the year subscription. So therefore why I'm trying to get it to pay for itself lolWhat is this 30% off we speak of? I would like to get it on it lol
My wife suggested that I do the 1/8 tlr 8ight xte kit and make it my own as far as wheels, electronics, paint and transmitter and receiver. Sounded good and looks pretty cool with all the tlr stuff on it, but I just don't know lol.Well after many winter snow bashing/racing/drifting/sliding sessions in the streets that have turns with round big turn zones at the end, and also doing lots of big parking lots.
I can say that the Sledge feels like smallest thing that is intresting to drive on snow, Fireteam with gyro better but the 1/5 Outcast/Kraton and Xmaxx/XRT is alot more intense more of a rush.
Outdoor non winter so many more smaller RC's are also intresting and the 6s line have alot better performance.
Losi electric 1/5 and 1/6 looks intresting.
I do like the idea of the fireteam. Being an exb variant with the brake setup all pretty cool. And it's in the middle as far as what I'm wanting. Something different and in between the 2 sizes I'm interested in.Stay with the 6s line. K6 EXB hands down the best bang for the buck IMHO right now.
However if you want to go bigger and longer, just jump to the 6s 1/7 BRCC or Fireteam. FT body I find fairly strong and is integrated as part of the chassis structure, so it costs more.
FT is the heaviest 6s model for sure. Yet I can still pull wheelies on demand if I want to. With Stock 6s electrics.
1/7 BRCC body is questionable IMHO. Surely looks nice. That's about it. It seems to break so easily with no front body clips used, as others stated. I don't own a BRCC.
Only a 6s Mojave and FT.
Just me.
I've also added the limited slip differentials. Had a gear on one messed up and cup on the other. Found good used ones for a good price from a fireteam. So essentially it's an exb now just not v2. Hobbywing 8bl150 w 2000kv motor. I put the spectrum setup in the limitless for now.Your extended Notorius is a 6s Kraton now. The longer wheelbase is all that separates the two. The Kraton is by far my favorite 6s. You will really like the driving difference the long wheelbase offers. You can’t drive if the front wheels are off the ground.
