This review is from: Stampede Monster Truck RTR w/XL-5 w/Battery&Charge (Toy)
I'm 43 and have 6 kids. Ages 8 and down. I'm a toy pro. I'm so sick of this crap we import that breaks once you play with it once. This toy was designed by engineering genius's because I've never seen a toy last as long on one charge, fly over rocks, do wheelies, and made my kids scream. My 5 yr old was driving it however you need adult to watch cuz it will hurt if you get hit. It is a sophisticated toy made by pyscho toy freaks that I want to meet. Spend the extra 50 bucks and get the quick charge device that charges battery in 25 minutes. This is the iPhone of toys

I have been out of this rc stuff for sometime and this truck blew me away. Right out of the box it's very fast. I'like just about everything about it. Handling,acceloration,and good looks.Only downfall is the charger takes too long, 5 to 8 hours for a full charge for 20 mins of fun,not good.So I purchased a Passport AC/DC LI-PO6s Charger and 2600 7.4 2s 15c Li-Polymer Battery Kit and WOW what a difference. Charge time is less than 45mins and duration must be 35 to40 mins of fun depending on how hard you push it. You just need to check on the engine heat.There is a big difference in power between the batteries,power wise. You should also get a wheelie bar. You WILL NEED IT beleave me it is awesome.It wheelies way too easly with either battery.It is water proof, but I have not tried it yet ( waiting for some snow ).Do not play around crowds of people or in the house,you will inflict some sort of damage.The speed is 35+ it says on the box, but with the new battery it might be more just unbeleaveable.I would recommend this truck and new battery kit to eveybody who is into or is just getting into rc trucks. the price for everything I purchased was $330.00.I didn't want to spend that much, but it was well worth it. I still can't get the smile off my face. Best toy Iv'e had in awhile. Totally awesome!!!Stampede Monster Truck RTR w/XL-5 w/Battery&Charge

This review is from: Stampede Monster Truck RTR w/XL-5 w/Battery&Charge (Toy)
I'm 38 years old, bought this to spend time with an 11 year old, and this thing is AWESOME! I know it's an "entry level" upgradeable r/c, and now I'm hooked. Something like this cost at least six hundred bucks when I was her age, and I never even asked for one because I knew we couldn't afford it. DON'T spend a hundred bucks on some piece of crap from Wal Mart or Radio Shack, it's NOT worth it, this can't be touched for the money. You need some space to run it, grass is probably not good in large doses, the motor gets pretty hot. Full speed on pavement or dirt and it stays cool to the touch. Check You Tube videos, "Stock Traxxas Stampede". It's a great way to spend time with a 10 to 12 year old, I set it up for her which takes about two minutes, and supervise play, give pointers, etc. This thing IS fast, and could definitely hurt somebody in a collision. It's tough, I've flipped, rolled, and wrecked it way more than she has, just avoid dead on front end collisions and your'e fine. I see now I'm going to have to get the wide front bumper and wheelie bar, and probably buy myself a Stampede VXL! Sweet jumps too, be careful with that.
