Finally decided to take the plunge into the 1/5 scale after my revo 3.3 engine broke apart. Ordered a new engine for it too but decided to get into the 1/5 scale rc.
Barely used it for 2 tanks due to the amount of sound and less maneuverability in my residential area but got hooked onto upgrading it :)
here are the upgrades:
HPI Racing D-Box 2 Adjustable Stability Control System
Sway bar set
Ramtech lights x6
Light 3rd channel switch
All terrain tires x4 (stock ones are horrible)
Clutch cover
NGK spark plug
Silverback v3 Lipped Outer HD Beadlocks
Front/Side Windows Orange
Killer RC "Killer Cables" Suspension Limiting Cables
Killer RC Radio Interference Filters
12.9 Grade Pinion Bolt
RPM Front Bumper and Skidplate
RPM Light Pod Mounts
TGN 'Redneck' Dual Stage Pre-Filter
Outerwears Airfilter Pre-Cover
Outerwears pull starter cover
Shock covers
DDM Dominator® V1 Chrome Pipe
High Response Clutch Shoe & Spring Set (8K)
New matt black body
24mm extended wheel hubs
Only need a decent radio now. Overall its an insane vehicle and totally worth it (not totally :P:hatsoff:

Great buggy :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Yash sorry a bit off topic, i see the you have a stud in a display case and got me curious.
Whose studs in the display?
Build planes like feathers rather than tanks, both handle bullets equally well.

Baja looks great! I bet that Dominator pipe sounds insane.
