    Anyone have one of these? I know its a traxxas and its brushed, guy said he thinks the motor is fried, he wants to get rid of it, everything but the tx for $30 shipped. I have my old vxl combo out of my slash that will bolt right up to it.

    I say go for it, for 30 shipped I think its a good deal specially since you have a esc & motor, also not much has changed on those Bandits and Rustlers, so anything that may have improve should fit it.

    Yeah they are pretty much the same as a rustler except for the arms if I remember correctly and miscellaneous things. Long time ago I used to have a Rustler and a friend of mine a Bandit pretty much everything was compatible between them, I'm sure most hop-ups for the Rustler should fit it.

    What about this, a friend of a friend has this in his shop they've been into R/C since about the 70s, since he showed me the pics I've been tempted to offer to buy it, it seems to be complete and overall good shape (looks like an 80s model) and they have been selling on ebay from 150-200, I think it would be cool to rebuilt it and keep it as a show piece, I really like those old R/Cs.. maybe offer him 50 bucks and see what he says...

    Went and flew this evening, great calm day. Helped/watched buddy finish up a 72inch four motor B-17 afterwards. Can't wait to see this bird in the air.

    Went by the LHS today and picked up some paint and 30,000wt diff oil. I'm painting a bug body for my friend's SC10. Metallic purple with some Metallic Charcoal accents. Also, picked up some of what I like to cal "Voodo Black" (A silver metal flake and green metal flake) and Pearl White for something that should be coming in the mail later this week...

    Was reading about some Solar stuff just the other day, posed to be the best centering servos out. Please post some specs, and prices if it's any of my business.
