In this riveting episode, Roach RC delves into the thrilling world of alternative 10-scale buggies, steering away from the mainstream giants like Associated and Schumacher. They uncover the Yoko super off-road 3.0, a two-wheel-drive marvel that traces its roots back to the iconic RC10 days. With a design boasting a mid-motor layout, aluminum chassis, and 13mm shock bodies, this buggy promises tried-and-true performance that stands the test of time. While not groundbreaking, its reliability is as solid as a rock, making it a formidable contender in the modern RC scene.
Next up on the roster is the PR Racing B10R, a budget-friendly gem from an Asian brand known for its clever packaging of quality parts. Machined aluminum spindles and hubs give this buggy an edge, offering a bang for your buck that's hard to beat. However, with limited setup resources available due to its newcomer status in the market, the B10R poses a challenge for those seeking versatility across different terrains. Despite its shortcomings, this underdog shines as a promising option for enthusiasts willing to pave their path in the RC world.
Serpent makes a grand entrance with the SRX2 Gen 3 team kit, a testament to their racing pedigree and innovation in the on-road and off-road realms. Designed in part by the legendary Billy Easton, this buggy introduces groundbreaking features like easy access diffs and captured ball ends. While the SRX2 excels on carpet and Astro turf tracks, its adaptability to dirt surfaces requires additional investments in parts, making it a jack of all trades but master of none. Roach RC wraps up the episode with a tantalizing glimpse into the S Works S12 and the Agama A319 buggies, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats, eager for more thrilling RC adventures.
