Default What buggy do i get?

New to electric. Been away for 10 years, always used to race nitro 1/10 and 1/8

What is the best value car rtr brushless 1-10 scale for indoor buggy type. Something I can build on as I get back into it without having to buy again.

Been looking at the b44.1 but by the time bought electrics and controller gonna cost a bit.

Your opinions wold be helpful

Thanks

Having also returned to the sport after 10 years, I can also give good feedback on the 210, its a solid build, I had never heard of team durango either, but it is good kit for the money. I didn't go for RTR, but if monies tight or you want to check its still your bag - it seems def the way to go!!

To be fair mate all the current buggies are much the same in terms of quality and build.

It's more a case of which one will suit your style best as they all handle differently and are more receptive to a certain style of driving than others.

If you are able to give some a test.

I would also say don't rule out the hobao h2. Quality wise it is no less that any other 2wd on the market right now, and the parts are cheap. With its price point it also lends itself to a non rtr setup but still within modest budgets.

I moved over from Durango to Hobao in December and its not a decision I regret at all.
