saw that, to expensive for me
you can buy it with the profits from those 350 tires......
Yeah, um... So they made a wing mount, an excessivly oversized wing, some ugly tires that are way too big on front, and a messed up looking body and threw it on an RC18t. Yippee, lol, I see it as a way for them to make more money, I guess. Doesn't look like anything special. I was hoping for more, AE.
savagedriver is right!!!!
+1
they coulda done better than that. i still love how a mini t and rc18t both look like their 1/10 counterparts. is that the word?
Well, looks like AE was trying to beat Duratrak Vendetta on the release. I agree, the RC18B isn't anything but 18T with a wing and body. Kinda like 18MT I mean just bigger tires, and shock towers. I too excepted a little but more for AE. The way I look at it though, if the 18B is successful maybe they will finally release a 4wd 1/10 bersion on the B4 or T4

Agreed...

When Savagedriver said the front wheels were too big on the 18B, I couldn't see it. If it was a 2WD Buggy, I'd agree, but as a 4WD buggy, they look about right. I think Losi is the only one with a 4WD 1/10th electric buggy, maybe this will get AE in the game.
i dont think it looks too bad actually. but i dont think i would ever buy one beacuse im not a big fan of 18th scales.
Escpecially know that Kyosho has jsut released the 4WD Lazer Alpha ZX5 1/10th buggy, so we know have 2 condenters. With Losi's XXX-4(belt driven) and Kyosho's Lazer Alpha ZX5(shaft driven). AE need can compete, I mean kyosho parts are hard to come by these days. And I'm just not a big fan of Losi.
There is a AE based 4-wheel drive electric 1/10scale buggy out now. J Concepts or something. It used alot of TC3 parts.

oh and the front tires on the 18b are way to big comparred to how 10th scale 4wd buggies look. The 18B looks like it's from radioshack with the body on.
yeah... don't really like it.
