the $20 buggy - 02.25.2010, 01:58 AM

well i brought it from a noob, drove it like i didnt care. motor fried.
left it alone for 3 weeks.

today i got a FREE, yes that's right...FREE mamba max and VXL motor so i promptly put it in the buggy.
OMG this thing is nuts!! even on a half flat 3000mah nimh battery!!

and since the ESC and motor is free then it's STILL a $20 buggy...and i'm selling the stock ESC for $30 so i will actually make money on it like a first in a lifetime! make money on RC and end up with something better than you started with!!

btw it's an el-cheapo "great vigor rhino buggy" with bald tires.
has the right stuff kinda...ball diff and CVD's and it's 4x4 and 1/10th scale


E-revo 3.3 conversion, 249kv outrunner, 6s, MMM
the porthole from the noob world an here has been opened!! that's how i got in.

I agree, test it's vigor & send it!

You'll never find parts for it anyway
