I’m happy with my vekta.5. SLE kit was fun actually to put together. Driving fun too. Wrenching same. Heavy yes.

Thanks for featuring my kv5 (blue and black body) am surprised hearing about the chassis problems you mentioned as av had mine for just over a year now and not had any problems with chassis or hubs, however i did have problems with clutch bell carrier bearings. Great videos btw!

Hi mate. glad u like the vid! These issues with the kv5 were what I've heard mostly (been shown pics) rather than seen ( apart from broken shock shafts) but every rc has issues and for some owners none at all! The KV5 seems like an awesome rc to me in many ways. glad you are enjoying yours and that its reliable for u. cheers for the comm mate. hopefully bash fest will be on again next year!

Hi, hard video to make but it really boils down to taste, money, durability, customer support, parts availability and costs (especially things that break often and consumables like tyres, air cleaner, clutch etc) , upgrade must haves and costs, what you really need it for (back yard, track, sand dune etc) just things to think about. :-) :-)

I'm obviously a DH fan and owner of the new V2.5 which comes with the new FID extenders which absolutely transforms the handling of the DH over the stock V1 and V2. I really like both the KV5 and the DH and was really considering buying the KV5 last month but opted for the V2.5 from RCModelz due to the amazing amount of upgrades already fitted out of the box and of course the price £995 !!! (With FID pipe and extenders) for the DH is outstanding value compared to the KV5. But again it's a case of each to their own and hopefully with RCModelz stocking the KV5 and associated upgrades we may see more out and about.

Andy Lyon well said mate. Your v2.5 looks amazing! I too was a kv5 potential buyer. But was offered a dragon deal I could not refuse. Both look to be great options. Some feel the dragon is lacking in top end speed due to gearing restraints but I’m sure there must b a way round that! Look forward to seeing your new dragon in the flesh 👍

I’ve got a dh and I think If your willing to adjust the way you drive corners it’s a absolutely amazing platform, out the box it could do with a tuned pipe, the upgrades I’ll be doing is brp extenders, wheels and a tuned pipe to give it more stability and a bit more umpf but most people run baja rear wheels all round as it’s cheaper. But none the less It’s a very reliable, strong and well handling platform but you can’t deny the fact the kv5 and dh are absolute tanks! I’d love a big boar kv5 but it’ll take a long time to raise the funds! 😆

christopher markham hi mate. Thanks.👍👍😀 The dragon, especially the new version v2 is a real new version but of kit imo. I did of my dragon v1 and bought a losi 5b but my mate stephen still has his v1. He’s slowly converting to v2 spec. He bought the wider v2 hubs this week so we will try to get a vid showing them ASAP. I wasn’t using mine enough and found the 29 zenoah a bit weak in it. It needs a 320 like Stephens. Plus it’s a heavy truck. Awesome to look at and own. Not a particularly good jumper but superb steering and brakes and just special. Service from rcmodelz here in the uk was also superb. Good luck. 👍

Me myself and I liked the Dragon Hammer with the already upgrades and it dies looks sweet, I wish that fid racing made the dragon hammer body panels screw on the inside of the tubular roll cage to give it that full scale mad max look. Also please put up a video of the Dragon Hammer V2.5 please show a nice walk around of it and how well it runs and handle thanks.

I had the Voltz and some rear end gears broke within 5 to 7 minutes F.I.D racing paid for me to send it to Detroit performance and they paid them to repair it. It's a rip off IMO, buy you a Losi 5t 2.0 it's faster than a solid axle and it handles way much better, but if you do want a solid axle truck just for the driving experience get the new vetka super stadium truck the one with the 2 spare tires.
