Best rc lipo basher

[jetbox]

Hi,

My son wants a new rc car. He had a tamiya dark impact which was fitted with a brushless motor and lipo set up and ran really well but the gearboxes struggle with all the power and wear out quick.

What should we buy next, I like the look of the axial wrath, but it’s not really a high speed basher as far as I see, more slow speed rock crawler.

Any advise appreciated? Ideally we would like a kit build but not critical.

Many thanks

I read good reviews about the traxxis max, does anyone have any real experience of it?

Thanks for all the replies so far, much appreciated and very helpful

No max budget really just want the best for the job

Traxxis is about £550, cheaper would be nice but no big issue as long as it’s value and robust

Cheers

Many thanks for the reply.

The Losi car looks ace and just what we need. It looks like it is out of stock everywhere though which is not good.

Looks like it’s between Losi and traxxis so far
