I haven't run it as yet getting all the necessities 1st.... I'm in love with this Truggy. This is my 1st brushless version. The front shocks don't seem to have any oil in them or they're under dampened, so I will have to upgrade that 1st before I run. I will give further reviews upon running it.
This is an update after running my truggy my only problem is not enough parts in Stock, the front shock came leaking. Make sure to use thread lock on the wheels,screws and upgrade the steering servo because the second one I got burned out as well. Also the receiver stop working so i put in an futaba receiver and controller.other than those minor issues this is a very strong truggy. And i will recommend getting it...customer support was very helpful. Shipping was fast. Hopefully soon I can get some hop up parts in Stock soon so I can get this truggy up and running again.
Better than my E-Revo, faster and handles better. When I bought it it was $275. 6s capable esc, alone was worth the price.
OVERVIEW The i8T starts with a heavy duty anodized alloy chassis with Lexan mud guards and a molded upper deck. The center driveshaft uses heavy-duty outputs and powers all four wheels through a triple differential system; each diff uses metal internal gears for strength. Long-reach universal driveshafts are found up front, while dogbones send power to the rear. The jumbo 1/8-scale Truggy x-pin tires are pre-mounted and pre-glued from the factory, ready to roll. A full set of ball bearings throughout the drivetrain are standard equipment. The i8T independent suspension features tough, reinforced and extra-long suspension arms, oversized hub carriers, Heavy duty upper adjustable turnbuckles with oversized ball ends, and big-bore long-stroke shocks with threaded preload adjustment and adjustable mounting angles. The steering rods are also heavy-duty, with adjustable turnbuckles and a dual bellcrank steering system with built-in servo saver. Both front and rear shock towers are crafted from 4mm thick anodized alloy. The lower suspension shaft braces and steering drag link are made from 3mm anodized alloy. With the versatile battery mount, you can power the i8MT with anything from a single 2S LiPo stick pack, to a pair of 3S LiPo packs, or even a single 6S LiPo pack. A mini bumper protects the front of the chassis, while the rear end features an ajustable-angle high downforce molded plastic rear wing. A pre-finished and pre-cut Truggy body tops it all off.
