That's definitely got the look doesn't it. Cheers! I'll definitely not be buying anything more for a while anyway so I'll wait and see what happens with the kit

Blew the ESC on my 1/5th Savage last week, running 8s lipo.
Just ordered a new ESC and might drop down to 6s from now on, cars are afteral not supposed to be air bound 99% of the time.

Had some good sales on ebay so lashed out on a used ECX Barrage that came with a nice selection of hopups, and 3 lipos for some reason. The shell is frankly disgusting but it'll take the shell off the FTX Outback no problem, and all the basic model's issues are sorted- proper servo, wider stance, and the ECX comes with better electronics stock.
(previous owner's picture:
Blew up the motor on the second day, thrashing it around in the snow in a very uncrawlery way, my bad. So it's donated one of its lipos and its servo to the Madbull for now. I'll get some more bits for it (it's amazing how much you can spend on ebay and aliexpress while never spending more than £10...)
Oh and the madbull's in the middle of paint which I think is turning out quite nicely, and, because of the 20% off ebay deal after christmas, gained a brushless motor for maximum damage. The servo from the Barrage is ridiculously strong for a buggy, 15kg IIRC but it's good for muscling all that bendy blobby tamiya steering out of the way.
Hopefully the 2 are different enough that I can enjoy them both but I have to say, the scale crawler thing suits me down to the ground
