Default lloking at an x2c,any good and spares avalability

As above,currently run a 22 and am looking for something different from the 22's and dex210's which smother the field at my local club(taplow)
There is one x2c which runs at the club which goes really well,handles great and is as above...... different.

He seemed to have issues with the idlers even though his is modded with the ally rear bulhead etc etc so would have thought he would have modded the idlers with the rw items?is there still an issue?

Point 2..parts dont seem to be readily available,my local stockist is apex models and they dont have any of the hop ups such as the ally bulkhead listed which seems strange,is there a parts issue with these?

any help and pointers greatly appreciated....and no i dont mind if the brand has a stigma regarding not being 'proper buggys because the price isn't bloated' type of thing!!

Got rid of my 22 and bought an x2c. The x2c, even on kit settings is alot faster and easier to drive than the 22 OVERALL. The 22 is awesome in the right conditions but pants when not. The x2c feels like an x factory x6 but with more steering as standard. Really stable and doesnt bite you when you get it wrong.
The idlers need replacing, i bought some metal ones for the hpi e firestorm which were about 3 quid each (needs 2) ands thats about it really.
It does feel a bit plasticky but goes very well.
You wont be dissapointed

Hi,thanks for the replys. Bought one from Marc at Mk with the upgrade alloy idlers so will get building.

So far doesn't look that dissimilar to any other kit and quality of parts looks very good so will have to wait and see.

Any advice on option parts is greatfully received.

Thanks. Neil
