Turnigy Brushless 4wd 1/16 Beatle RC Car
« on: December 27, 2013, 09:27:19 AM »
Well impressed with this little thing from HobbyKing UK

I got the Beatle and the Racing Buggy which are basically the same cars with different wheels and shell.

Well worth £55, we also got some HK GT2 controllers from ebay uk as HK UK dont stock them and the cars are running on 2s 1700mah lipos

Yes it's an awesome little car, I'd say it does 20mph. Great for a little dirt track with some jumps.

Managed to break rear lower suspension arm today, luckily I ordered a spare set with a bunch of other stuff from china hobby king over a week ago so it wont be off the rd for long. I think the bmx course we went today with them was a little bit too rough. Broke part cost about $0.30

There is about 5 of us who use these too :)

The Beetle is one of the best models and I still run a Buggy! I've had all of the 1/16th range from turnigy and also the 1/10th trooper!

When we can't fly we race Turnigy haha!

Bought another one since, I got the rally extreme and blinged it out with all aluminium parts and new shell, not had a chance to get it out recently though!
