Default Buggy Help

Hi guys, right to start off by saying both me and my partner both have Nitro JQ's but there not really for us due to the amount of time they take and all the tuning you need to do with the engines etc it's just a pain really so we have decided to switch and jump to electric with our 2 local clubs being Silverstone and Milton Keynes it seemed like a no brainer.
Anyway once we have sold all the nitro stuff we will have a ok budget but don't want to blow it all so decided to get a couple of RTR's so what do you guys suggest would be the best way to go as there are a load of choices and we don't know where to start.

Any help would be great

If it is rtr you want/need then I suppose you have 2/3 options. the Losi 22, the Durango 210 or the Associated B4.2, all in their rtr variants.

as I loved associated from days of old id go 4.2.

but what do I know, im going through that exact same process.

I sold all nitro last year, and just bought 2 4WD cars, and Guts

so far im touching 1300 quid, for everything and climbing

but I did Build them
One bit of advice is, if you can TRY build it, so you know how it goes together.

With Nitro I did the same as you and bought RTR as they are complex, but electric is easier to build, and knowing how it all works is good for when you snap something.

worst thing you dont want is to snap a wishbone and have no idea where the screw is, and what will fall off when you turn it hehe

Default rtr

the losi is a great rtr and of course you get the spektrum radio..the only niggle for me was the fact its rear motor.the durango rtr is a good car but with cheaper radio gear, but better esc and motor,both of the cars mentioned are a lot cheaper to change to mid mount than the b4.
