[chunkytom95]

hi im looking at getting a short course. i have seen the associated sc10 and the hpi blitz but are there any others on the market.

[cwilson]

there are quite a few out there. here is a small list off whats available at the mo: associatated sc10, hpi blitz, traxxas slash, losi sct, kyosho ultimaSC and traxxas slash 4x4

Have a look inthe Kyosho section on here...

Just got hold of mine from RC Champ... very impressed with the quality

Its near enough an RT5 / RB5

the blitz has slightly better options on wheels than the sc10 with having hex back and front :-)

Just to note, there's a revised version of the SC10 due around March time. Weak points on the original have been addressed, as well as a few mods to make the rear end more stable. HPI's race oriented kit version of the Blitz (Blitz ESE) is due in May too.

Also, as mentioned, have a look at the Kyosho Ultima SC, early reports suggest it's a very good truck.

Weak points on the SC10? Mine is rock solid, and im very impressed with it. The only quible I have is rear wheels, but that is sorted as a rolling change I believe - id be interested to see a list of changes on the update.

I've seen no real problems with the SC10 either, but know a fair few guys on RC Tech who've felt it was "weak" in certain areas.

Info's here, Cliff Lett at the Nuremberg show:

Oh, sounds like it'll be closer to April in release though.
