All 1/18 buggy very good fun and save a lot of money.  Dont break easily, parts are cheap.  No need expensive alloy parts in general.   Stick pack and brushless very cheap to setup but very fast too (5200kv, 7200kv crazy fast).  Using motorcycle stick pack is only just 100, 20c 7.4v plenty of punch for a light weight car.

1/18 can do all the style moves just like 1/10 can, and can play anywhere really.

My favorite is still the Kyosho Mini Inferno.  Anderson parts are from taiwan and very expensive.  

I heard from KWS that there might be a new version of Kyosho Mini Inferno this summer, that comes with normal servo, esc and receiver, which are all separate.  Therefore, no more need to waste money with the old (4 wire) kyosho setup.  Hope this is true then can get more parts later.

I have two brushless mini inferno, both run very good laaa....  and cheap to run and lots of fun.

waiting to see if there is a new mini inferno with normal electronics, can then change to brushless easily ...

prefer to have sensored 380/370 size motor but unfortunately, other than expensive novak (and currently no stock), all small 370 motor from hobbywing, SP etc are sensorless.  This is not so good for offroad especially for going up slow hill with power, sometimes no response, unless gear down, but then not very fast.

如果18仔用18t.5800kv. ...

sorry C-Hing, not good typing chinese.  

Agree with you that 370 slight under power.  I find it is ok with with high KV and with low pinion gear.  I use a 5800kv but use 12T pinion on the Mini Inferno.  It seems high rpm with brushless works better as efficiency is higher at high RPM, and so not much heat.  And the esc is ok too, no overheat.

Here is a link of my mini inferno, I post earlier with the special modification on the servo mount, to allow the mini inferno to use stick pack.  Hope this is useful idea for C-Hing moon.
