True, but it's more than double the price for me. $ 120 normally and even on Black Friday deal it's $ 105 Canadian. For bashing the DumboRC is great. Extra receivers are stupidly cheap and the range on this thing is completely insane. Over 400m for me and that's near a cell phone tower and a few k from an airport.
Our WiFi is so slow that even sites glitch and behave strangely
After buying 4 rigs with the STX2 and finding out what a POS that was included in my $500+ truck, I swore to never buy another Arrma. That was a year and half ago, since then bought other brands. Recently bought the V3 Bigrock, only because of the upgrades and most importantly the new SLT3. Arrma needs to prove to me they deserve my business, but with the K8S and EXB early problems, I'm still watching!
Or you could have spent maybe $50 for a DumboRC X6A and 3 extra receivers and not worried about it.
That's not my point, I have many radios and did change them over. What pisses me off is I paid a couple thousand dollars on all these trucks and Arrma had to know about that radio. Are you impressed on how the CEO handled that one? As I said, just bought a V3 Bigrock, why, because they addressed some issues and ditched the radio, finally! And why the hell would I buy a Hoss, Daddy!Or you could have spent maybe $50 for a DumboRC X6A and 3 extra receivers and not worried about it.
I'm the opposite - I saw how they responded to the EXB diff issue, despite the difficulties of COVID, and heard their CEO speak about it. I"m impressed with how they handled it.
But hey, go buy a Hoss if you'd rather.
Careful calling me Daddy, I'll get all excited.
No Man, they wouldn't do anything for me with the radios, got all 4 models when they first came out. Heard later on some people were able to get the Tactic, some the STX3 which was probably no better. Anyway, water under the bridge, don't like beating dead horse with this radio thing, but did leave a bad taste in my mouth for a long time.Careful calling me Daddy, I'll get all excited.
I get why you aren't happy but I wasn't around when this went down so I don't know how obvious it was, what the timeline was or how Jason or the company responded. I can't judge based on that. I wasn't going to run the stock radio anyway so it didn't matter to me. I do like that they are making the EXB rollers though, those are great. Companies and people screw up. Mistakes are made. It's how they deal with problems that matters to me. Maybe that has changed from the STX2 issue but I am just going off of what I experienced. I get that you are unhappy about that situation. Just out of curiosity, were you able to warranty the radios? Or would they just send another of the same thing?
That V3 Big Rock looks like a great truck. I think it's the best 1/10 basher out there.
Just go to Arrmas website everything is on there.
Are other brands prices more comparable or are they much higher too? There’s a lot of great 1/8 scale cars out there.
Did you just get a Notorious? I remember your profile having no ARRMAs and a rustler prof. pic
I am getting the Notorious for Christmas, on my pfp I have the Traxxas BigFoot.
So what did you end up going for? And are you happy? I’m facing the same dilemma now. What to do........
