I'll start with the cons. After 1 week as a newbie driving these cars with my 8 year old boy these are the things that needed replacing.
2x servos (1 for each car)
2x front bumper
1 x front suspension shock arm.
On the pro side these have been great fun. We've been to the golf club and shredded up a fairway and had a doughnut session on a green. Made a course at the local car park and had an hour and a half of wheel to wheel racing. Seeing my boy jumping up and down with delight at beating me every time was just a joy.
The speed on these things are just mind blowing for a newbie both 2s and especially the 3s are both serious power units. I've been really impressed with the run time too, getting easily over an hour on the two batteries.
Jumps at the skate park might have been a bit premature as that's definitely hurt both cars.
I'm based in the UK and been so pleased with the customer service at the 2 model shops I bought the cars at. Both replaced the servos straight away so a big shout out to Wheelspin models in Staffordshire and Modelsport up north in Yorkshire.
I do need some help with the front suspension arm that I bent. Does anybody know the size of the part I'm looking for, seems hard to find the parts for some things over here. Here's a link for what I think it is so if anybody has any UK links if this is wrong please let me know.
Thanks ?
