Default Wot no LRP Twister thread ??

Surprised to see no info/opinions of this newby 2wd..

I've looked into this kit comparing it with other similarly priced RTR's when suggesting 'starter' brushed RTR 2wd's for friends. (ie, Mad Rat, TT Pheonix XB, FTX Edge)

To me it seems good because... it looks , strong, reasonable quality plastics, ball raced gearbox (maybe even the axles too ?), gear diff, reasonable 16T ESC limit (though only comes with a 23T) & half descent tyres (?)

Not so good because... it's at least £20 more expensive than other equivalent RTR's, (though admittedly includes a 1600Mah battery & slow charger), 27Mhz radio , no lipo voltage cut ESC, no adjustable turnbuckles, plastic telescopic driveshafts.

I kinda like it, recent mag review says it has a good chassis, capable of plenty more oomph (not sure the the telescopic driveshafts will like it... )

Anyone have one, race one, broke one yet ?
