RE: Turmoil RTR or ARR????
ARR has the pro upgraded parts and motor and pipe , you need to supply electronics , servo;s radio and receiver . RTR has a nice dx2 radio and different engine .26 but still nice and pipe , comes with some OK servo;s . . if you have a nice radio get the ARR if not you might want to get a RTR. just depends how much you want to spend .amainhobbies has some great deals on the turmoils

I;m thinking about getting a xxx-cr and was wondering if i could spray it down like the 1/8 buggy for cleaning ? How do you attach the esc to the chassis ? Basically just wondering if there quick and easy to clean . thanks

''the new knuckles that are on the turmoil do have a beefed up steering arm and also have been changed to allow for more steering throw''. Just have to wait for them to be in stock . i LOVE my mayhem ST , very tough truck and it flys really nice , kills my friend s revo , while were out bashing he breaks with in the first 10 minutes , most of the new turmoil parts will work with the ST and there also working on a NEW sportwerks arena truck that most parts will be interchangeable with .

RE: Losi AFTERSHOCK thread.
looks good , I wonder if it will use the regular LST RPM arms , thats one of the reason i didnt buy an LST 2 is becuase they wont fit and that truck seems to big to not have RPM arms . I think the radio is 100 times better then traxass and hpi RTR radios also , servos too . GOOD JOB LOSI . is that MACH 26 ?

I know the new turmoil knuckles will work and they look alot thicker , the arms are like rpm arms , i havent broken anything but some steering knuckels and about 2 gallons so far threw it , the trucks rips . I had mine 10 ft. in the air yesterday and it flys really nice , I hit the breaks in the air and broke another steering knuckle when I landed (front end came down kinda hard ). The knuckles are not that weak but i wish they would make alumium ones. besides that the mayhem st is a very solid truck ...
