Post by vwmicrosizer »

today i bought a new bright 1/36 xrtm truck. i say they r better than micro ts. the car run on a 4.8v pack or 3 AAA battorys. it is really fast and has very good steering. the only places that i no of that sells them are fred meyers and toys r us. the cost $43 here in alaska so down there the cost like$30. they have a buggy a stadium truck a monster stadium truck and a monster yamaha rihno. i got the stadium truck. im go n to buy the rhino to make it into a off road truck. also they are 2wd and they have locked differentials unlike the micro t.

I saw them in Walmart on Sunday for $30.00 (well $29.98) with 4 frequencies switchable on car and controller.

Same here...WalMart. The shocks look a little cheesy but I guess you have to expect this at that price point.

Good find for an inexpensive alternative...... but I find it hard to believe that they would be equal or better than micro-t.

You do know that there is an unwritten rule here that requires the first person to get a new RC, is the first person to do a review. Including detailed pictures with the body off, electronics and all running gear..... :razz:

FAQs & FGAs / Rules
......posting vids :roll:

And I'm sorry, but I saw them yesterday.............

I'm not empressed for 30 bucks. It looks way too cheap of quality. I saw a lot of flaws in the joints that scream "break me".
