Mohawkk Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Came in the mail today. Avant Slot raid truck. This baby has 2 (thats right 2!!!) motors! 1 drives the front wheels the other drives the back wheels. I will take a photo later of the insides. The body is extremly light and with the 2 motors to weigh it down, it is not as top heavy as i was expecting. It is quick off the mark but doesnt have a great top end speed. and to compare next to a Fly Sisu Cheers Quote Love, Kai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miveson Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Damn expensive those Dakar trucks, hope you picked it up for a steal. I've been looking for a long time at that Repsol one, they've all sold out pretty quickly and they simply don't come up very often if at all on ebay. Best I could do I think was around the $100 mark. Anyways, great looking truck, appreciate the picture next to the Fly Truck. They look like they are a hoot.

Mohawkk Posted February 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 I'm sure i got the last one from topslots. As far as i know they are/were not available or not imported in australia. I think that was about the price i payed, plus shipping. I'm really happy with it but have only ran it on my race track (my dog chewed the wiring for my rally track completely stuffed it..). A few modifications are needed to gazzas and flipsides tracks so it can fit under the bridges. I would get another one. Quote Love, Kai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalbfellp Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Letting your wife collect parcels is a sure way to end up in the dog house, or in the case of model truck the "doghouse " might end up in you!
