I can understand the thinking behind this thread as i have noticed a air few for sale recently too.
but there are also lots of Cougars changing hands regularly too...
Horizon sold an amazing amount of 22's in UK last year as it was a new concept of kit, was very reasonably priced in comparison to Cougar or a conversion cost of kit+ new chassis etc, had been kept quiet and nothing else was due for launch at that time or the following months... since then the DEX210 and C4.1 have been seen on tracks tested and released which will balance the field up with less running existing cars to try the next big thing or more an easier life.
Agree with the Losi Team folllowing in UK... i the car had a strong team of top drivers at National level then i feel opinions would be different.
The internet/forums popularity these days causes personal opinions to turn into rumours very quickly an this justs boosts brand rivalry and banter track side.
One thing that has been overlooked though... if they are for sale, they do sell quickly which means new drivers into the TLR fold
I love my 22 (all 3 of them!) will be sticking with it and going into this years outdoor season with set up knowledge tried and tested last year rather than starting from scratch
No r/c kit i've tried has ever felt right or instantly made me world champion out of the box, all have lots of settings to adjust, thats without the crop of shiny aftermarket tuning aids that are thrown at us these days.... just takes time to try them all to find a personal set up, its all part of the fun!
