Stampede lovers...

Post by ibjamn »

Traxxas has been paying attention to the market, and have released my favorite truck with all the options I've spent a small fortune adding to mine. :-o

The list is awesome, 5x11 bearings all around, new high torque steering servo( :? didital, but still the OG TQ AM radio? :? ), metal geared tranny, metal turnbuckles, better yokes on their sliders, better power connectors, better screws and hardware, thicker wires, heavy duty hub carriers & steering blocks, and even more. But the killer is a brushless system that will handle the 11 volts from 3cell lipo 8-)

I would have wanted to see titanium hinge pins and rods, like I have on mine. Or even a wider track, like I did on mine. Because going that fast it needs to be more stable, and when you crash, you need more durability :lol:


Just too cool. I haven't seen prices yet, but I'm sure it'll be a lot cheaper than what I have into mine, except going with Lipo.

The all metal gear tranny would be great for crawling. Although I would still probably choose a R2
