Did you order one?

 

[Younggun]

No, staying strong for now.


I bet my son would really like it though....

 

[Glockster69]

It's like a nagging sensation in the back of my head.....

It goes away when you click BUY.

You could talk me out of much more manly 4x4 . . if you tried hard enough. lol

 

[Sugar Land]

Sounds like the perfect thing for your son.

 

[Younggun]

Curtis done wrecked his and said it doesn't drive straight.

 

[Sugar Land]

Don't think it is an operator error?

 

[Younggun]

Real operators don't make errors.

 

[Sugar Land]

I rest my case...lol

Why you not want it any more

 

[Glockster69]

I should have never bought it. Kinda pressured . kinda just wanted to spend money.

It's cool n fast as heck but I could put the money in the air, where I can lose it more quickly.

 

[Younggun]

That's what is holding me back. Think it would be fun, but planes can do more.

Really thinking a Visionaire would be fun and cheaper than the cars I've looked at.

FINALLY got this monster uploaded! Recorded at New Waverly RC airfield. Hope you enjoy

Nice Curtis. It looks like it handles pretty good in off road until you got it stuck..lol

 

[southtexaspilot]

Cool.

The suspension reacts very much like the stadium trucks you see on the tube and this is a "cheap", stock one. I can only imagine what high $$$ toys are like. The tires bark under acceleration even at 3/4 throttle.

 

[Younggun]

What would you estimate the top speed to be?

Do you think the 4wd adds much to drivability?

 

[Glockster69]

I'm running stock gear and a 3S 3200mAh battery so probably close to 150mph according to my math.

 

[Younggun]

You're running LiPo right? Do you think it's hitting the 45mph claim? Looked pretty quick on the runway but hard to judge.

And about the 4wd......I've seen 2wd versions that seem otherwise identical.
