So I’m seeing lots of negativity in the comments for this rig and i am little confused by it so the traxxas 4tec 3.0 is $350 and comes brushed for a top speed of 30 mph but does offer a nice scaled body. arrma has taken there 3s line and created a nice on-road mini limitless /felony but 1/8 scale that can hit 70 mph right out of the box and to me that impressive for a 3s $450 rig but I get it it’s not 4 everyone and the 6s infraction and felony are amazing but they also cost now $700 so I see great value for this rig I would like to get one down the line 4 great review Greg..

This thing looks amazing, and I've never considered an on-road car until recently when I outfitted my Rustler 4x4 VXL with more street-friendly tires. That being said, it looks like I'll be replacing the tires every 14 minutes on something like this :\ Is that accurate, do you chew through tires as quickly as one might think? Plus the 14mm wheel hex seems unpopular for third party tires.

@joshbolt96542 жыл бұрын
I'm on the fence myself on this one. It's down to the Traxxas 4 tec Supra and the vendetta. I'd say what I've learned so far is that you can get the Supra at 350$ usd and put a hobbywing Max10 combo in it to be 2/3s capable. The Supra plus max10 come out to nearly the same price as vendetta, and they would be relatively close to each other in speed.

450$ for all those plastic parts and 3s capable spektrum electronics isn’t a good price that’s a traxxas price. 😂 above 55mph it’s rly unstable bc of the rear wing someone alrdy got injured doing a speedrun. The tire vent holes will get chewed up by the tires bc of downforce if u adjust the defusers. Arrma knows ppl want a new 4s line.
