Title: First view Thunder Tiger MT4 G3 Monster Truck 2011
Post by: traxxrc1 on March 02, 2011, 09:20:31 PM
Looks like a serious competition to erevo and Savage flux.
This car is most metal, less plastics, can support 6S!!!!!

Have a look. Its cheap too, like 28k maxx from rotor

I think this is will click since it not based on the MTA4. But on the ST1. Cant make out if it has a center diff. If yes, will be a killer to handle. Savage Flux and Erevo has reason to worry.

Cool.

Will it be as strong as the revo series and the savage?If it is,TT have a money making machine on their hands.

Check the rotor link, the car looks great, CG is far lower than a flux, pluss a lo of metal can be seen which is first of a kind for a TT vehicle

Yes it does have a center Diff .So for us ST-1 owners we can also put the same body,once you put a taller front body posts.

Post by: ajit4647 on September 25, 2011, 09:25:21 PM
so any reviews from anyone who owns it or anyone who has seen one in action??

how does it stack up in bashing?? a friend of mine wants to pick one up. he does not want a maxx as i already have one and basically does not want to upgrade weak parts like i did. does not want a revo or a savage cos they turn out to be much more expensive.

and he says he likes the look of this.

so any reviews would be nice. Bigsquidrc rated it pretty high - http://www.bigsquidrc.com/thunder-tiger-mt4-g3-18-electric-monster-truck-review/

and would this be able to run NiMh as well or only Lipo's??

thx
Ajit

I'm sure it can run NiMH batts. as well. :)
I wanted to pick one up, but its 32k without LiPos :(

According to BSRC, its the ultimate basher! ;D

Jo has it. It's an ST1 with MT wheels. Runs well and is fast.


Title: Re: First view Thunder Tiger MT4 G3 Monster Truck 2011
Post by: iamahuman on September 26, 2011, 06:36:01 AM
Its pretty fast and handles reasonably well for an MT. I'd suggest it... If you want all the details, Joe is the man to ask.( He is one of THE best racers I've seen). I'll suggest him as a friend on FB...

Vote for the MT4-G3 below ,its already won the official big squid basher of the year award for being the toughest and quite possibly best handling MT out there at a bargain price (sold out in most stores in USA),but now the polls are open for the viewers choice http://www.bigsquidrc.com/march-bash-ness-2012-round-3/

Already done. It's a shame that The Dominus beat the Vorza.

Hi! is there a dealer in bangalore i can talk to? been wanting to buy a Savage Flux/E Revo, but both are so damn expensive, this seems promising.



Title: Re: First view Thunder Tiger MT4 G3 Monster Truck 2011
Post by: iamahuman on March 28, 2012, 08:24:13 AM
There's one near ISRO. Check the Mega list of RC shops thread. It should be there.

I had a less than good experience with Model Art so I wouldn't suggest them.

Yes it is hard to believe,it in the polls its ahead of even the losi 5t.

@abhiadya
Model art had one in ready stock.

^Yep my thoughts exactly.

Dominus 10SC and ruckus are getting quite a lot of votes from young kids.


Title: Re: First view Thunder Tiger MT4 G3 Monster Truck 2011
Post by: traxxrc1 on March 28, 2012, 01:50:41 PM
I'v voted for the 5T and the MT4 straightaway


Title: Re: First view Thunder Tiger MT4 G3 Monster Truck 2011
Post by: hellfire on March 28, 2012, 08:42:30 PM
It seems ECX maker of Ruckus has asked the factory workers to Vote

Really? Totally lame.

Post by: abhiadya on March 29, 2012, 01:10:32 AM
Thanks guys!!!!
i was able to contact couple of LHS and they seems helpful, will try them and approach ModelArt.

How is the spares and parts support for TT MT4 in bangalore? any experience ?


Title: Re: First view Thunder Tiger MT4 G3 Monster Truck 2011
Post by: hellfire on March 29, 2012, 01:22:01 AM
Well parts support is an issue with model art,they don't stock much  parts,don't know whats the story now.
But the truck doesn't break parts much,you can always order online from tower or amain hobbies,rotor sg,rcmart hk.Spares are quite cheap compared to most of the competition.


Title: Re: First view Thunder Tiger MT4 G3 Monster Truck 2011
Post by: trotro_fly on March 29, 2012, 03:34:38 PM
i have mt4 g3 see hellfire it is true tht finding parts is problem.


Title: Re: First view Thunder Tiger MT4 G3 Monster Truck 2011
Post by: traxxrc1 on March 29, 2012, 05:26:10 PM
you could try towers for that,with their exceptionally well shipping costs


Title: Re: First view Thunder Tiger MT4 G3 Monster Truck 2011
Post by: mail4ajo on March 29, 2012, 07:41:05 PM
Dont worry about TT parts, you can get them from Rotor Hobby, Singapore. I never depended on Modelart. But trust me unless you drive crazy, you are not going to break much. But wear and tear is high.
