1/18th Duratrax Vendetta....

Post by y2kgtp »

I could not pass this up, it was 45$ shipped to my door. Just had a Bad ESC. Came with a new set of tires, and
the plastic dogbones were already upgraded to steel universals.....

This is just begging for a little Brushless setup......

It will be a rocket ship. I saw this a while back and thought of doing something similar.
I'd like to find a 1/18th priced like that. :wink:

They go pretty cheaply. I was watching one on eBay that sold for 60$ Mine had a bad ESC, but did not care as it's going to be brushless anyways....I already have purchased a used motor for it, have a ESC, and likely need to upgrade the plastic bevel gear diffs, as they would not last more than 1/2 a battery.

best 1/18th on the planet. I have three of them, goes very good if you add the ST (truggy) suspension parts.
