being they are a relitively unknown company (probably up and comming) i would steer clear of them. this is my personal opinion, as i have dealt with some not-so-popular brands and no good came of it. cheap parts and hard to find replacements. (break it enough and by the time you fix it, you could’ve bought a RC10GT2 instead of buying parts)
be patient, save some more cash and get something from a more well-known company like team associated, HPI or traxxas, etc.
to me, the tsunami looks cheap. cheap plastic, poor design and an engine i have never heard of. i strongly feel this truck in no way could be a serious racer or even hold it’s own on the track. it does look good though.
just remember, 4wd is not always the best racer or the fastest, esp. for stadium trucks.
Can you buy parts locally at a hobby shop, if answered no. Then no, because every time you break something you’ll have to order it. If you do buy it make sure you buy 2. One for play and one for parts.
Just pay the few extra $$ and buy from the local hobby shop. At least they’ll have parts and they can help if you have any problems.
Just remember if you don’t give local businesses you business they’ll close down. You ever try to get help over the phone about why you nitro engine won’t start, it really *****. Espically when the person on the other end has no idea about what your talking about. Good Luck.
