Its an awesome price. Upgrade the engine and servos and you have one hell of a racer...
wow...Thats awesome
Looks nice and great to know it can accept D8 upgrades. Makes sense for serious begginer and future racer. Awesome price for US guys. Let's not even talk about prices.
This is a bone stock D8. They used to sell this before the hara edition was launched with the upgrades. So all parts are compatible. The engine and electronics should be more than enough for a racer. They are doing a smart thing by not fazing out a model, instead converting it a RTR (so that all can access it) so that it can make way for the pro CR8. Lets hope the Indian pricing is reasonable.
