    Damn that's not bad. It seem durable so far? Does it crawl well or is it more trailing and actual koh style. Looks badass. Nice exo btw, very jelly of that one.

    So far yeah, seems good, this video really shows it well. Only difference is its a brushless setup in it on 3s.

    My exo is sold, shipped it this morning :(

    Great little rig. RPP is right down the street from me. My buddy just bought a Twin Hammers. The only thing is the low point was not set from factory and he burnt up the shift servo out of the box after 20 minutes of running. He is looking at getting the front locker for it and he replaced the front servo with a HITEC for now.
    RPP has excellent service and great prices. My family and I have 3 rigs from them so far. 2 Wraiths and 1 Ridgecrest. Just got them painted up and some new accessories.

    That email went out after we already burnt it up. My buddy got it from RPP. I went in the next day and told them about it. Other than that its been a cool rig lots of articulation and faster than the wraith.

    I've always enjoyed them. I have an HPI nitro RS4 im trying to sell (super fast) and my current is a Losi trail trekker I built an indoor course for it. I was amazed at the quality of Losi's little rock crawler. Very cool

    4x4 Stampede if you like driving in/near water. E-Revo is overpriced in my opinion.

    Had a good day out bashing. Destroyed the spur gear in my Stampede and broke the servo horn on my mini e-revo. A Main here I come... :rolleyes:
