well if you are after perfect handling and stuff then go for the rustler..i think the rustler has a wheelie bar too..the vxl one..i got the stampede because i liked its ground clearance and styling..cheers

I hear it flips over alot more than the rustler because its so tall. Is this true I'm debating if I should get the Stampede vxl or the rustler vxl. I like the stampede because it comes with good tires and a wheelie bar.

well the height might be an issue compared to the rustler..i am not very sure about that one actually..but this stampede is good for jumps..and about flipping you can control that with some experience..

any body know why my new stock stampede VXL wont pop a wheel even with an 8 cell 4200mah battery set on 100% on the speed control and its top speed is only 37mph gps test any insight would be helpful thanks

[vijith555]

well looks like your slipper clutch is to loose..you will need to adjust that to about a quarter adjustment from full tight..try that but dont tighten the clutch to much..with the speed i think thats what a 8 cell nimh would give out..you need more go for lipo..

lipo or ni-MH?

[vijith555]

ni-mh 7.2V

i think i like the rusty better 2 me its a lot faster and better

tighter the slipper, more wheelie producing power. also, i believe torque creates acceleration which leads to wheelies?

[ZackP27]

stampede has more upgrades and possibilities...also not as enclosed as a rustler so easier to work on...you can even make a trailer or something to put on the back of a stampede because the stampede has more torque out of the box.

stampede=not as good handeling comes a wheelie bar smae price with better things
