Newer High Def 2010 video.

First bashing video of my Traxxas Nitro Rustler 2.5r. There is a minor crash in the beginning of the video. Beach run begins at 3:35. Beach run took place at Ocean Beach of San Francisco. Video shot by friend with a Canon SD790. Music is from One Ok Rock's debut album.

omg traxxas gives you an ezstart, and u bought a pullstart?? xD

[sputnikwood]

@powerking230 yes omg, removing the ezstart shaves off lots of weight whereby improving acceleration and handling. I got the rustler used, neither did the previous user had it. yeah "omg".

hi, im gonna buy this one to.

i read on other pages that it something breaks a lot and that u have to buy that new a lot of times.

did u have this problem to? and is this one a bit of a starter? pllz reply.

@eeniemand1 maintaining a nitro rc isn't cheap, be ready to spend quite a bit of money. stock parts from the rustler part will surely break if you get into a bad crash. Also, if you do not think you will be good with mechanical parts or repairing/maintaining the car, I would suggest an electric rc car if this will be your first hobby grade rc. There is a lot of learning and fixing involved with nitro cars versus the simpler electrics.

@sputnikwood i want to buy my first nitro upcoming year and idk what i have to buy :$

[MrKillermeatball]

It sounds a bit lean

[eeniemand1]

@sputnikwood Thanks, but i already have 2 electric cars and u have to start somewhere.

I live in holland, there they are €350, so thats ok.

The nitro rustler they sell there is also a newer edition, so i hop there will break less.

I tried some forums and there they say this can be a starter if u have had some electric cars. so thanks for the info!

Cool car, I used to own a Rustler VXL but then traded it for a T-Maxx 2.5. Since the trade I'll probably not own a electric RC for awhile because I think nitro is way better than electric. I like T-Maxxs better than the Rustlers because of the 4WD and higher ground clearance.
