Opinions on XTM
Ok i having been getting back into the nitro world the past 2 months and have seen this new company XTM. I read the post on what everybody thought about the xterminator which i think i plan on getting. i am just curious what people think of this company are they race material or just another smarttech type company. where can i find upgrade parts online and replacement parts online also

XTM make great stuff, especially their engines. I have an XTM .18 and it runs alongside the Traxxas TRX 2.5 no probs. The X-Terminator is said to be one of the fastest 1/8 buggies out there right now, but not race proven yet. They just released a new nitro stadium truck which should be a good contendor too. Hobbypeople sell XTM stuff, infact they have a sale on the XTM .21 for $99 right now (I should've gone for one) and xtm.globalhobby.com is XTM's main site.

if you do not have a hobby people near you it can be a pain getting parts when you break it.
they are a west coast thing.
xtm has been around for at least 6 years in the planes part of rc if not longer.

I don't know about XTM parts because mine is new and I haven't broken anything, yet. I found a good hobby shop, though. I have a Viper temp. monitor that has highest temp. memory coming in the mail, for less than $30.00. If you want to check the site out the address is, http://larrysperformancercs.com/ . I think I will send them an email to see if they have parts for an XTM.

yeah, a comparable ofna would be the ultra mbx pro.
i was debating myself between that and the xtm.
the reason i went with the ofna was mainly due to i am moving away from the west coast and more places i found where i was moving carried ofna and none carried xtm.
both cars seem to be a blast and fast, very similar cars.
