Stock traxxas A-arms suck. I've launched my Mini E-Revo 100+ feet and the RPM ones don't break lol

The 21" flat bottom has been clocked at 56mph. Took out the 1.5cc engine and dropped in a 3.5cc. A bit unstable but really fun on the right water.

I've got a yokomo MR4-TC SD chassis that's a few years old. Sadly the diff's are toast so it won't even drift well. Plus he battery has kind of crapped out and the brush less engine I had got fried somehow. Maybe if I cab find parts for it again I'll fix it.

Which is faster the HPI or the Vaterra? Brushless is better?

Took the diff apart and the spacers were causing it to slip. Took them off and now its essentially a solid diff in the rear. But I actually found a place that still has old ball diffs for my car so I ordered one and a new spur gear hub. Some how I lost the set screw for the current one. Need some clear weather and clean street now!

This thread got me looking for parts for my car and I now have parts shipping to me from the UK, Hong Kong, Minnesota (got really lucky with that one) and I got stuff from Japan last week
Global effort to get the car running again! Lol thankfully just with the differential and spur gear hub I got last week it ran and slid around on the carpet but I need a new battery and motor set up to really get it to slide around.

What do you guys recommend as a starting RC for a 9-year old? Growing up I had all kinds of RC buggys and currently still have an RC10 that I play around with occasionally. My kids have the Toys-R-Us type RC cars but they are garbage. Was looking at an ECX 1/18th scale Ruckus RTR kit. Is that too much for them, or a good place to start? No tracks around here, just streets, parking lots, and construction sites.
