-The rc18 and rc18mt are on the same platform and you can switch between them willingly. Being they are made by team associated they are very versital. I want one alot but mom says no more rc's

-the Vendeta is a cool buggy, but i havnt sceen it around to much so im not sure about that.

Which one is the best for what?

Overall speed? Durability? Offroad? Onroad? Cornering/handling?

i think you should get a vendetta,because not much ppls have it on here,and if u get 1 and i have 1,we can give eachother cheap upgrades and tips on good stuff..

Ok well, the best durable offroad car is what id like.
I hear you dont use a normal motor in the vendetta, they dont sell them on atomic mods either.

Yeah im talkin about the electric one, idk i guess its cause i heard that you couldnt find many upgrades, and ive never really looked for them either, what size motor does the vendetta use? Could i use the mamba brushless kit for it?

RC18T and RC18MT are the best in your list.

If you're new to hobby-grade R/C, do NOT ask about "how fast does it go". At this point, you 'don't know how to drive'. Hobby-grades aren't the same as XMODS. Learn to walk before you try to run.

RC18T and RC18MT are the best in your list.

He's only saying this because they're AE's. :lol: Sorry to burst your bubble, RED. :D

http://www.one18th.com/

The most information about ALL 1/18th scale RCs will be on that website. Read for a few days, then make your decision. If you're willing to jump into a larger scale head first; make sure you know what you're jumping into. ;)

Ah, in that case... RC18T and RC18MT are still the best on your list...

Donzii - quiet down... You're going to let out my AE-loyalness ;) (is loyalness even a word?)

But yeah, check out the site that Donzii linked, its a great place to learn more about 1:18 scale stuff, and gives you a wider view of the different choices you have!

Yes, it is. According to dictionary.com you are now loyal to your new government, AE. :lol:
