So I took the Durga out for a couple of spins for the first time today at my local parks. No jumps or even any real slopes but lots of dusty dirt paths and loose stuff to burn through and do donuts in
I was really impressed by how well behaved this car was. Without hardly even trying I was sliding it this way and that and it always did as I asked.
I'm glad I've ordered a better motor than the ol' silver can that came in the kit- the car handles beautifully but was lacking in power. I can see myself upgrading the heck out of it this summer
Lots of debris got swept up into the car through the gaps in the front under the shell. I suppose they are there for cooling purposes but it showed that the belts are sealed for a good reason.
Sorry if all this sounds obvious but I'm effectively a total newcomer to RC cars (it's been about 15 years since my last tamiya)
