For starters. He was simply making an observation. Him like most 1/18th feel they have no place in the "racing" world of RC's. Which we all know is dominated by 1/8th scale nitro's Now for him to make the comparison, he was comparing looks and wantign some acceptance for his micro........

Then Supra you jump in saying bad things about DTX. Well I know for a fact you had issues with your Detta. Biased opinion? I currently own three. NOT ONE has giving me any issues. I can not grasp how you had such problems? HACK? Lack of experience? But seriously the car must be complex enough that "you " could not figure it out. So now you deem it junk. Shallow IMO.

Correct DTX has their 1/18th vehicles made by anderson and they are sold the world over under various brands. DTX is the N.A. distributor.

It goes by the name; DTX Vendetta ST, Blaze, LRP Shark-18 Monster Truck, Anderson/Yokomo MB-4.

Yes. Jaejw is a little enthusastic about his Detta and Detta ST, but he has owned other Minis and for him these two have given him what he wants in a 1/18 scale.

Wow, I never said it was junk, I said it was junk compared to a Mugen.

Anderson is the company you guys meant.

[jaejw1]

well nicad is the only one that sees my point,, I was dhowing similarities with the same shaped parts,,,, which lead me to believe that a creator of the mb4 st must have liked the mbx5 enough to replicate parts and have them shruken down and used for the st

dont be surprised if the mugen and the anderson are made in the same factory.......:D

Wow, looks like half the one18th forum folks have migrated over here.

Welcome to the forums Berm!

To be honest the Mugen in the vid didn't handle very well compared to my CRT on the same track at Hotrod hobbies it needs some work on the suspension set up I dont see the point of posting the vid.:032:

There is a common design between the vendetta and mugen but that has nothing to do with quality just someone copying another truck to save R&D and development cost.

Everyone is intitled to there own opinion though and when people say there car is the best there will always be someone saying the oposit WHO CARES as long as you are happy with what you have dont worry about what others think or say.:027:

Leave the kiddy games and flame wars on 1/18th and dont bring them here.:007:

Bah, a good car is one that fits together properly and does what it is designed to do without falling apart. :)

The only thing we complain about here is how empty our wallets are after buying all the good stuff. :D

I agree with this. Enjoy what you run and appreciate the other brands even if you choose not to on one.

This forum is comprised of many intelligent & respectful members. Keep the flame wars out!
