To get everyone up to speed I'm in the final 'research' stage before buying a rovan 305A buggy. And now notice the rovan 360a version for only $50 more. With the additional maintenance items I want to get (extra clutch, plug, extra tires, etc...) for the 305A what was supposed to be a $500 car is now close to $800, so what's another $50 right? LOL.
Here's the question, and I realize it's very subjective. Is the extra 5.5cc worth it for general running around? Is it worth the extra $50? I've seen a 30.5cc vs. 36cc romparo video and wasn't much of a difference in performance. The 36cc had a bit more oomph but what it gained on the straightaway it lost at the corners. Anyways I prefer a more robust/reliable rc/engine combo rather that more performance. Does anyone know any major flaws in one or the other engine in stock form? Maybe the 36cc puts out too much heat and is known for melting some plastic chassis part, maybe one has a better stock carb than the other or maybe one has some other inherent flaw, etc....things like that......Comments welcome. Cheers!
