New 5th scale suggestions

[Rep732]

So im going to be able to buy another 1/5 scale coming up at the end of January. Im looking to make a poll here on what everyone thinks I should get next.
I have one 5ive t and I don't think I really need 2 ?‍

Im looking at kits nothing RTR

My choices are:

Kraken vekta kv5tt
Kraken vekta lse pro
Losi 5ive b

Or whats the other possibilities?

If you already have the 5ive then obviously the answer is the Vekta. I was just drooling over it 20sec ago on DDM!

 

[Rep732]

But what which one?...I like the kv5tt due to it being a scale trophy truck

 

[MonsterAir]

Too similar to the 5ive, I'd go with the lse pro.

Kv5tt

 

[DougStar]

Kv5tt

+1 ?? the kv5tt has revised/updated parts over the other two?? or MCD ??

how deeeep r ur pockets is the Q?....
because 2x of em r gonna b a dam sight more $$$$ to get right.....?....

 

[Rep732]

Well I have roughly 4200 total into the 5t including the truck. Im looking for a new one to build and slowly upgrade. I have another 34cc engine so I'd just need a radio and id buy a kit with a pipe... im not made of money and I live the average middle class life its just a hobby lol

 

[evssv]

plenty budget then.....?......crack on?

 

[Z.hb71]

Yeah I'd consider MCD for sure @Rep732

 

[MonsterAir]

Have you considered a drag car?

 

[evssv]

Yeah I'd consider MCD for sure @Rep732

again...not cheap if done right??..esp the top kits?

 

[Rep732]

There's no drag racing around my parts. I have thought of it and the car would most likely sit if I bought one

 

[MonsterAir]

MCD parts gonna be a nightmare and 2x more expensive if your in the USA

Does it look like that's a problem for this guy ??? and mcds really aren't thaaat bad

 

[MonsterAir]

Have any interest in onroad? It's hella fun and less wear and tare. Plus much less cleaning

same as it would for most of us ? as nowhere to run and or no one to run with☹

Rcmax has em, and so does cardinal racing in canada so it's not that hard to get. And those cars are extremely reliable

 

[Rep732]

Yep usa here. I do like the lse pro. Maybe by jan-feb the unlimited will be back in stock on ddm. Is there any differences between the lse, unlimited and kv5tt?
