It's done, My new MCD Baja1000

[cr4sh_27]

cr4sh_27 : I have jumped mine a little. It flys well, but crashes are bad. I never lost it & I jumped a 4 ft gravel pile. Not wide open or anything like that. The thing is if you did crash. The cost to repair it could be pretty high. It's a 30+ pound vehicle traveling at nearly 50 mph. I have rolled mine several times. Flipped it end over end 2 times. No damage, bent my pipe up a bit in the rear, No real damage & the body still looks good. The last roll was in a parking lot, sideways 3 times & stayed up-side down, for the first time. I walked over & kicked it over & continued on for about 30 minutes straight !! These are very durable, compared to some other big vehicles. The 5b appears to be pretty reliable as well. Only certain issues like most vehicles have. They do though jump much better & have the suspension to take it.

mikeh : The Baja1000 in an RTR package is $2095.19. That includes the same 29c.c. stroker motor ( Not Chrome , Black ), Aggressor FM radio, 2 1/4 scale Steer servos, 1 1/4 scale Throttle Brake Servo, 3000mah Reciever pack & Switch, Clear Body, Stock Muffler. Completely built, Tires glued, Battery charged, Ready for fuel & Play Time.

that was exactly my point...they weigh ALOT, so when it gets some air and comes down funky...somethin's gonna give.
im only speaking from experience with the hpi 1/5 buggy. regardless, they arent nibble, you cant jump them like an 1/8 scale buggy.
but they are still bad a$$
