Whoohoo!

From Atech, the guys who make the fantastic little Leo-X aka Venom Mini-Giant.

Don't these little guys look great???? (http://www.racing-cars.com/products.asp?hideall=Y&partno=prod987&templateid=18&pagewidth=550)

Seems they use the same chassis base, but they look great

Man, I can't wait :) Micro choices just keeps getting better and better

coughs *saidthisalreadytodayontheukforum*

although the buggy looks a tad weak?!?!

the rear shock tower doesnt look like its upto much....but then its a micro so the loads would be less than 10th scale...looking good..and for a 100 quid!! !! wow...thats pretty cool...



*edit

I would choose to get the buggy since it has a very affordable price....over other competitors...I wonder what kind of hopups will they come out for it....and what size motor is that Mondo....looks to be a 300.:p

Not to shabby, are they?
Also A-Tech's Leo-X has rave reviews, so I expect these to be good too

the rear shock tower is actually very bendy..abit worried how far itll bend before it snaps though.

the diffs are geared diffs and my front one is clicking out the box..hmm..shimming time.

the battery pack is like the packs you get in micro helis..6 x AAA batterys 600mah too. im not 100% sure that you can fit 2/3a cells in at the mo, ill research more later.

otherwise its fun, loads of slop, plastic bushes through out, good servo saver though, just like the hyper7 one lol

for £100 its not that bad :)
