    Good video but we didn't really get a chance to see it stretch its legs. These did 30kmph out of the box with no ball bearings... not bad for an old 'tank'. At one minute twenty five on the video you lost the front RHS spotlight... Did you roll it at any point? Always love seeing the 'Super Champ' I mean Fighting Buggy again.

      I agree with you the sand scorcher and rough rider scooted too, the rider needed needed paddle or studded tire to help it out. My Frog ran really well against the Super Champ they handled similarly to be honest.

    My very first RC car and of course I have the re-release. It's more fun to drive off road than it would seem. With Lipo it will wheelie and carry it for a bit when it gets traction like on short grass. There are poly carbonate bodies that fit/look pretty good so you can keep the plastic one for the shelf and not worry about damage.

      The CPR P100 unit was a built in Receiver/ESC in one, in today’s Tech it’s still big and bulky but back then it was pretty awesome. I believe it was released for the Avante back in 88 where there wasn’t room for anything else lol.

    CPR will be fine with 2s. I think they could be used with an 8.4 back in the day which is the voltage of a fully charged 2s. Just check though. Buggy looks great
