Anyone have any hands on experience with this kit? Im looking at it, along with the Mugen MBX5R kit.

With the odonnell kit looks nice, and with it realitively new....are there any quirks, or did odonnell make a awesome kit? I guess if you want to compaire it to anything do so with the MBX5R Mugen bussy...Im green when it comes to 1/8 scale buggys....but not to RC.

I have not seen a single O'Donnell buggy out on the track yet, but Tebo is running one and doing pretty good with it. It might be hard to get parts for though....

Ahhh....thanks. I figured it would be out already. Also knowing there will be a mad rush to get the parts, kits, upgrades I'm probably going with a tried and true kit (MBX5R) since I will be getting everything in Mid February.


Thanks for the heads up

That would explain why I hadn't seen one yet..... I thought it had been released already for some reason.... LOL
