Default is the team c tc02c any good?

just wondering what these team c tc02c buggies are like? they look like they're built to race and i think are the same as the ansmann x2c? or have they used better plastic.

thanks

I run the ansmann x2c and it is a great car hadleing wise, it is forgiving and easy to drive. I am not sure about if there are any different upgraded parts on the tco2c but I'm sure other people will kno1.

The Team C products are very good and definitely suited to racing.

I know the TC02C comes with uprated gears in gearbox over the Ansmann car,

Was looking at Team C/SMD demo mid motor car yesterday and there were some alloy parts on it, hub carriers, rear hubs and rear bulkhead but not sure what comes in the kit as there are a couple of spec levels available.

Look really good on track, won't be the strongest car on the market but for the price they are definitely good value and a capable competitive clubmans/ Regional racers car

ah right,sounds good and i did notice the design is similiar to a x factory x6 as the stick lipo sits across infront of the motor.
does it break often?

Great car, out of the box. We hold the majority of the alloy hop-ups. Spars wise the front kick up plate is the only real weakness, but at less thank a fiver it's not too bad.

Hop-up wise - the toe in blocks and the 30 degree caster blocks seem popular as do the alloy hexes.

If this is the tc02c



Then it isn't the same as a X2C, its the same as the Mad Monkey (chassis wise)

The X2C is a narrower chassis wise and only takes saddle packs.

The one that frecklychimp looked at was specked with a number of option parts, put on the car to show what parts are available. Jono made 5th in the B at Mid East meeting at West Bridgford yesterday in a field of 70+ drivers including F1 grade drivers.

The internal gears do not seem to be a problem on the Team C cars, club lads at Broxtowe Club have built them as kit and been running them with no problems.

Just to add to this post me and John333 both run one at Mansfield indoors and have crashed it or in johns case has been hit I actually barrel rolled mine down the main straight after getting a jump wrong and neither car has broke a thing, It seems like it has kyosho quality plastics and is very very strong straight from the box and very quick johns had some good results with his so far and will be looking forward to next years regionals,me well I've never been the best even at club level but I have uped my game with this car (a lot) somy verdict for a car like ths that cost me £130 10/10

Amazing car! A lap faster than anything else I've owned, and has survived crashes which would have broken my previous car in half.

Only upgrade needed strength wise is the ally c hubs, some of the others are good for tuning and weight balance.
