    I love my Fireteam! BTW a great mod for it are the M2C Racing ZRS shock caps... it eliminates the bladder and mostly eliminates the rear end's tendency to bounce upwards uncontrollably.

    • @FarmerFpv
      @FarmerFpv Рік тому +1

      Those are just emulsion caps. Hot racing has had them for a long time. They're not great for all-around driving. Integy piggybacks emulsion shocks are much better and have fully adjustable rebound and compression via knobs. You can turn the stock caps to emulsion bladderless shocks too. 4 x16mm O-rings then drill and tap a bleed hole on the cap.

If you understand the strengths of each rc and understand how to drive them, you can't go wrong with either. Really it's up to your preference, but both are really fun.

    Fireteam is the best driver I've experienced. I'm relatively new to rc, if you discount my neighbor showing off optima mids and turbo optima mids. Never got to run those. My vorza buggy rides better than my slash, original tmaxx electrified just likes to break plastic shafts. Fireteam body takes rolls and crashes exceptionally well, but it doesn't want to roll, even at speed.

    there is no comparison each rc is very different. In tires, chassis, body's there will be many people who like the fireteam. but with time. The same thing will happen to the already forgotten axial yeti xl. If you look closely it's almost the same design just for some different arrangements. In my case I have never liked that type of design. I have had bashers, scts drifting rcs drag rcs and the ones that I liked the most are the scts like the udr and arrma mojave and the super baja rey v1 and 2. and the baja rey 1/10 scale. There will never be a comparison in these two different designs. That's what I think in my humble opinion.🤷
