I still have mine, but haven't run them in a while. I can't stand the heat so I stay in the Air Conditioning.

You can use any 370 size motor, like the ones for the RC18 series. The battery packs from the RC18 also work it you change the plugs (mine has Deans plugs). If you need an ESC the Novak Spy is a nice one (my wife has one in her Mini-Quake) but there are many good ones on the market. You don't have to call Megatech unless you want the OEM parts.

Well, I'm still running mine. Waiting for a chance to go to the post office so I can pick up my 12v adapter to power the Triton, but once I've got that I'll be out and about almost around the clock. The nitro buggy is too much of a nuisance to keep running. =/


Hope you get yours running soon!

You can rebuild it.

Make it faster, stronger, more expensive.

Just make a call to Megatech. I've heard that Team Scream Racing were making some parts but I don't see them on their site. I'm guessing you could email them.

I gotta see how bad you destroyed it. Most people I know that have been using them as bashers haven't been able to kill them. I'm surprised that mine had only a broken shock tower and I'm not the most gifted driver.

I've read several places that the ones for the AE RC18 series will work. You may have to change the other gears (drive shaft) at the same time.

I'm still on my original diffs, how did you go through 3 sets, and in what time period.
