anyone screw with these?

I know they are way faster than when I was a kid

You have this company next to Frisco. They keep expanding and have a cool looking headquarters off Stacy/121

Never messed with them.

Pass.

They’re fun. Go buy the real thing and jump stuff!

Long, long ago I was. Even before Lithium batteries, we were running electric trucks that did 45-50 MPH.

Team Losi

if you want to race dont go traxxas

Had a Traxxs TMaxx nitromethane truck, after upgrades it ran 68mph. Last was a built Emaxx running twin brushless motors, it ran 64 but would smoke the TMaxx up to 60mph

Traxxas or bust

I need to go to the Traxxas place and T&T Hobby in Plano. Learn a bit. Pretty cool video's on youtube.

I like the self righting feature. The trucks are pretty cool

I'll go an electric kit if I do. Dont want to spend a lot, if i'm just going to sell it on here

They can get pretty expensive. I bought a Traxxas Stampede 4wd truck for “my son” about 3 years ago for Christmas. It was fast and we ended up hitting a mailbox and taking out the front end. While at the hobby shop getting the parts to put it all back together again, I got talked into upgrading to a beefed up brushless motor and now it really flys! Front wheels come off the ground when you gun it now. Fun toys!

Children's toys.

Big kid toys.

Why do you keep opening let alone respond to something you have no interest in?

Yep and fun

Post count. It’s all he’s got

Those things look like you could have some fun with them but I could see it getting expensive after trying to see how far you could jump them and crashing

We have some arrma typhons and a Losi buggie or two. They are fun for a time or two. Until they lose their charm quickly lol

More fun than a pile of empty beer cans.''


"Post count. It’s all he’s got"

Nah, a stack of empty beer cans to do with a posting.

This does look fun.

They are surprisingly tough and can take being flipped and rolled quite well. But if you hit something hard at 50+ mph something’s gotta give.

Wade, yours sounds nutz!

I played with them in my early teens. Fun but even the higher end stuff was always breaking if you are running fast and jumping. Believe it or not fishing is a cheaper hobby than good RC toys.

My son (12) saved up and bought a inexpensive Traxxas (<300). He has learned a lot tearing it down, repairing it, and upgrading the car. He is learning how to tear down and diagnose differentials as the gears are wearing out. With the brushless motor and 2 batteries it can do a back flip from a standstill.

Honestly this has been one of the best things for him to learn how to take things apart, how they work, and put them back together.

I will say there are an infinite number of ways to break the thing, but the replacement parts are relatively reasonable.
