What 1:8 model is the best?

[Nietrijker]

Hi guys,

Not sure where to put my question, but what model should I put on my wish-list? Is it the Kraton, Fazon, Nero, Outcast, Talion, etc...

I'm thinking about a 1:8 6S model, but I'm not sure what type. I like my Granite, but also my Vorteks, however the monstertruck stuff / jumps / sand-runs is more fun than high speed runs... ;-)

Thanks for the advice.

Most people will say Kraton, cant go wrong with it.

Easy maintenance -> Kraton
Heavy weight and lockable diffs -> Fazon (for high speed)

YOu want jumps? You want a basic platform that's tough as nails? You want a list of easy to do, performance and strength mods?

Kraton all day.

Another vote for the Kraton here. At the price point, it's one of the best (if not the best) 1/8 scale RC vehicles you can buy.

Kraton for speed over rough stuff and big air jumps.

Outcast for general crazy driving.

Typhon for speed over smoother ground, and track handling.

Nero if you like to work on stuff.

Nero if you like to work on stuff.

Why is that? Does it break a lot? What is the best vehicle for reliability?

Typhon for racing or speed runs. Kraton for bashing. Outcast for showing off.
