Yes ... dog done is weak .. (plastic)
It is overall a durable car, as Traxxas uses good plastic, when you ride it with 2s (7.4v) battery or 8.4v, should be no problem at all, but once you play it with 3s, (which is very fun and fast) then the car is hard to control due to high centre gravity, so it will flip and crash all the time, and unlike it's brother SLASH, with huge bumpers and full size heavy body shell, which make the car super durable.
Shock are weak too, (again plastic) see if you can upgrade to metal shock ..
But the problem is .. if you add metal shocks, rpm arms, metal dogbone, metal C hub around, add on fans (with 3s) and change to better tire ... you are spending another $1,000 or more .. price add up la.. close to a 1/8 .. |
