So I haven’t had an RC car in about 25 years. These bigger scaled trucks got me! Lol. So I’m looking to get back into it and I see that Kratons come in a roller option.
If I were to go to a RTR, I would swap out the ESC for sure, maybe the motor too. So that would be money saved there, but wondering if it’s the best thing to do? Is it more expensive this way, to me no - since I’m not starting at the full prices RTR price tag. Yeah it may be a bit more in the end, but I can’t see it be a LOT more.
Or maybe buy used and upgrade when it comes in?
I’ve heard that’s these bend chassis easily over time , so a used one could come in bent up and a used badly. Which would mean an additional cost on a new chassis…
What’s your guys thoughts on this? Excited to be here!
Thanks!
