fastrax? Poor quality?
Anyone had poor experiences with Fastrax kit?
My 1/8th hauler (new christmas last year) now has a snapped handle and the alloy extending arm has long since given up. (The extruded alloy part just tore as I was walking to a meet) Also the chair I bought to go with it lasted about three meetings before the stitching split... I've seen three others do the same.. Haven't seen any other haulers in the uk the same size, so want to check if I was just unlucky before I go and buy another..

As I was looking to buy a Fastrax Mega Hauler.. im abit put off by this thread. The bag, is perfect for what im after, plenty of space and drawers that are not cardboard.
I currently have the smaller team magic hauler, its done me well, however theres not enough space for my equipment. Has anyone had good experiences with the mega hauler? What would be recommended hauler wise, if not the fastrax? Im not interested in bags, or luggage cases.

I've just got the hudy bag from MB, it's awesome..
Drawers are not cardboard, they look to be the same plastic as the fastrax and the quality is exceptional. If you can get an older fastrax bag, they have a more durable handle, it's the later extruded aluminium ones that seem to have the problem. Oh, be warned the biggest hudy bag is massive... Wouldn't fit in my v50 estate boot! Gutted as it's like the Cadillac of rc boxes

I got the fastrax mega hauler last Xmas as I said in an earlier post, I really like the layout of it but it is not fit for purpose. It's absolutely knackered one year on and has been for months and months, last weekend the handle completely broke rendering it useless. It's a shame the build quality wasn't executed better.
Earlier this morning I ordered the hudy hauler. It's around 50 quid more than the fastrax from mb models, but if I had ordered that to start with I wouldn't be needing to fork out again this year. My brother has the hudy one and the difference in quality is massive. He too had the fastrax one fall to bits on him. Don't make an expensive mistake.

my hauler handle just snapped leaving my meeting tonight. 6-8 months old. I'm on my second skin, zip bust on the first, which got replaced as it was 6 weeks old. not happy with mine tbh. decent alternatives?
