Re: Durable, waterproof, tough bashers. Alternatives? Traxxas is the way to go for a basher. water proof all the way, here is a vid of a E-Revo during a rain day up at Elite, its bone stock so I imagine the Nitro would be the same |

Durable, waterproof, tough bashers. Alternatives? Hi RC fans! After 10 years of inactivity, I want to start all over with a durable car for muddy woods, snowy hills, beaches, heavy sandpits etc. No need for super high-speed, but proper acceleration. And I dont need it to be a submarine, but a atleast waterproof for puddles, snow etc. Driving sessions will be around 2hours (+/- 30mins), so even with the new LiPos, nitro will be my only way right? (if I am not wanting to invest 400bucks into batterys!?). I am aware that nitros will need more maintanence than an electro equivalent. But it should be the least simple so no need to prepare the car 30+ mins before every ride out. After a few days of research I found the HPI Bullet 3.0 models, which are close to what I was looking for (it can be a bit more pricey and real-car-look-alike tho). Also I red alot about new Traxxas Modells having waterproof servos and cases. But ofcourse I am lacking all the 1st hand experiences if it comes to longevity, toughness etc. And unfortunately in the town I live there is only one decent RC store, and its focused on planes n boats :/ So I hope its not to much to ask for some help better advise here Thanks alot in advance! Cheers! Robert |
