The Losi, from what I’ve read on RC Tech forums (www.rctech.net), is not the best build quality and is currently lunching diffs at quite a rate.

I’ve played with both the SC10 and HPI blitz, and they’re pretty much the same, but I think the Blitz is better thought out in terms of build quality and adjustability. It’s easily right up there with the SC10 on the track (has been doing a lot of winning in the states over the last month or so). With HPI they’ll, hopefully, be a huge range of aftermarket gear too. The only negative points are that it’s only available as a RTR and that the SC10 feels a bit more agile on tighter tracks, so might be more suited to UK racing. With the SC10 you can also save a bit of money and get in kit form, plus it’s established, so there’s quite a knowledge base.

Check out the forums of this website (www.rcshortcourse.com), lots of knowledge on there.
