Hey does anyone own this model? I know they did that shootout in the march issue of rcca, but I was just wondering how it performs with the rtr stuff in it. I would really appreciate it, and if steve or bob or any of the other admins would like to put in their 2 cents about, I wouldn't mind.

Humble - I wasn't a big part of that shootout, they just yelled down the hall when they were ready for me to do the radar testing. From what I know of this truck, it would be my first choice as a RTR. It's not the ultimate basher. Its design is based on a racing truck, which is best suited to running fast lap times. Some of the other trucks are more durable for bashing, while the RC10T3 RTR is better suited to racing. I also like the LRP speed control and upgraded motor.

This guy that just bought it borrowed my charger so he could get a run in. He was practicing and just bearly clipped the wall and snapped an arm. Then he blew his shock going off the first JUMP!

WOW! Are you forreal? Was he driving it hard? In all the years i have been in this hobby i have never broken an a-arm. I heard it was a really good truck but i don't like RTR...i wanna build it myself so i know the truck better. I had a FT T3 and that truck was awsome, so i would think the RTR version would be as of the same quality of the FT. Well im not much of an AE guy.....i love my XXXT, but the T3 is an awsome truck. I think AE and Losi are more of a driving style company if you know what i mean.

I have 2 RC10T3 RTR trucks. My first is all hopped up and second is strickley stock. I'll be honest with you all, I wouldn't trade them for the world, best Associated product I've ever purchased!

I just wish they would release a RC10B3 RTR kit, anyone heard that this may be happening?
