I have a max budget of  :Rs:32,000 this time.
I shortlisted Tmaxx, S50, GST 7.7

I want extreme power,extreme size , strong design, easy spare.
I intend this truck only for Bashing.

Kindly suggest which one is best/or any other one.



I liked GST due to its largest size and 5 horsepowr engine which is the most powerful,but i didnt liked the less market for CEN in india
i like s50 due to its massive popularity in india and easy spares., but its only 2.6 horse power acc. to the ttr website which turned off my mood.

i like t-maxx due to its brand and the quality associated with name of  the brand, but disliked its small size

is savage x 4.6 larger than T-maxx 3.3?

if you want a truck for bashing then just go for savage 4.6. and if u want power then go for s50.

i think savage 4.6 costs more than my budget.

FYI: The savage X 4.6 will outdo the S50 in almost every department.

It is more durable, quicker, better basher, better racer and overall a much better package.

And the best part is that it falls well within your budget with the 2.4 radio and roto included.

U can also get a different clutch/spur combo for racing within 32k. Check with Rahul from RC Racing Hobbies. He is the closest HPI dealer.

Well not sure how reliabe the CEN and its support.
S50 may have only 2.6hp but with a 75% increase in engine capacity over a Savage 4.6 it will have higher amount of torque.
The just launched S50 V2 comes with a new body and the 17mm wheel hubs and bead lock wheels.

But the Savage is still the most popular truck and for good reason.

Whats the least price for a savage 4.6 with AM radio.

BTW i am thinking for a T-maxx

Speak with Rahul from RC Racing Hobbies. He should be able to give you pricing.

Im pretty sure you will not consider anything else after you speak to him. It is only available in the latest 2.4ghz series.

If you are considering a smaller engine size look at the TMaxx 3.3. Great car out of the box and it has quite a lot of accessories and falls well within your budget.

@Hellfire: You are right about CEN when it comes to reliabilty and Support. We have a few clients looking for CEN spares. Do let me know if you have any leads.

This tilted me towards T-maxx.



Mann...this car looks 10 times better than any othercar in the world....I am loving it.

your profile says that you are you are advanced and why u r asking this silly questions

I really dont need useless posts on my topics.
Please

For all other let me clear up for this non sense post- I have been all electric guy, and do not have much practical experiences with engines other than HPI.
Thats why i created this post to get some help from the guys who have raced these trucks.
Thanks

OK let me start of by saying that i have no experience in Nitro cars..

With that said, what about the Revo 3.3?
Little out of your budget, but its supposed to be REALLY good..
You can ask Ajo, as he has this truck..

I haved PMed him to have a look on this,waiting for him.
BTW i have decided to bash this truck only a little, but still no racing and hence revo is out and t-maxx is in.
Since tmaxx and revo share everything in common except shocks, which are more modified for racing in revo.

Wanted a savage but savage also requires some other acc. which wont cost anything less than 3k.

The T-Maxx is an ultimate basher and has lot power and durability.
It also comes with lot of accessories and is a true RTR.
Spares - are easily available which is much needed for a basher.

Cheers

What i think is that T-maxx is a racing cum basher thus its not as tough as a savage which is the ultimate Bash king

@ Arpit - The only common thing between the Tamxx and revo is the TRX 3.3 engine. otherwise almost all other components are different.

Tmaxx and savage both are bashers which can race also. But when you factor in a revo into the picture it will blow the doors off both the maxx/savage when it comes to racing.

But savage build is incomparable to a t-maxx build quality right..?

@ Arpit: Since you have owned a savage flux and a savage XL im pretty sure you dont need us to answer that question.

I'v never seen a 4.6 running, and have heard a lot pros and cons about it, then saw a couple of other big trucks like CEN GST and got confused, and called for help from you guys
