Anyone have 1/5 scales ?

You can get them RTR. A basic RTR kit has a basic FM radio system & basic smaller CC engine 23 or 26. All of these can be modified. Many leave with 30.5 CC Chromed out with a JetPro pipe & alot with a Spectrum / Nomadio radio. I would suggest Outerwears filters. They make the engines live Very long in dusty situations. Actual life with filters & all I'm not sure on a #. You do have to remember they run about 40 minutes on a full tank, So you spend tons of time driving. The stock servos are fine for driving around, But like always many want the speed with power for steering ( Which is a 1/4 scale servo ) & an upgrade on the throttle servo is nice for a bit more brakes. Especially if you upgrade, like an FG to Front disc brakes. Parts are not problems with some models more than others. The shop is striving to make there Not be problems in getting anything repaired. The HPI line is awesome for upgrades, as is the FG line. The MCD line has a few less upgrades, but is an Awesome vehicle from the start. There is tons of developing going on right now, on different parts for them. I'll get some pics of an FG he has that has all the aluminum possible on it, with beadlock wheels. Has a custom roll cage powdercoated. I makes you realize how far you can go with these in customizing. I'll shrink some photos & give you an idea of what I mean by tons of options.















These are some shots of build inventory some time ago. There are more & more options coming all the time. The HPI line alone is almost as much as is shown here in these pictures.
