Cheap car

Looks good but broke after 5 minutes and can't get parts to fix it and the sales team are hopeless

Sabertooth great value

Jan 12, 2020

I was skeptical at first on purchasing the truck because of the other reviews about spare parts, after receiving it I was extremely pleased with the quality especially for the price. I ran it several times without any problems and look forward to racing at the local track

Great truggy

Jan 05, 2020

So far so good, seems like a great all around off-road truggy and with a with a bit of tuning handles very well.
The only drawback seems to be Parts availability, every time I try to order something it goes out of stock or is on backorder.

Beast

Nov 14, 2019

This thing is a Beast and well worth the money. Ive bashed on this thing thoroughly and its held up great. You can buy 2 of these for the price of 1 of the high dollar name brand trucks and this is just as durable and fun

Quick truggy

Nov 07, 2019

Awesome truggy. a little work has to be done to get it up and running such as oil changes and make sure there is grease in the diffs touching the gears not just a spot in the middle doing nothing. would have been 5 stars but they are discontinuing the spares

Rychlá, velká a obratná bugyna

Nov 06, 2019

Je to moje druhé RC auto. Vůči předcházejícímu (Quanum Vandal 1:10) je opravdu velké a na 2 2S články neskutečně rychlé.
Výhrady mám ke kvalitě : kola přišla povolená a táhla mají celkem vůle. Se dvěma 2S články 5Ah je zadní část již celkem nízko a musel jsem ji vyšroubovat na pružinách. Asi by stálo za uvážení vyměnit olej v tlumičích a použít tužší pružiny (a ono to asi tak dopadne).
Při oživování se mi servo řízení dostalo do krajní polohy. Řízení ale neumožňuje plnou výchylku serva a síla serva mi strhla závit na táhle řízení. Náhradní díl samozřejmě není skladem, tak jsem musel trochu modelařit.
Celkově ale slušný kup.

Great Model...!

Nov 02, 2019

This has to be the best deal for a car this size! Tuning and making adjustments is easy, (it has anti-sway bars!) Add your receiver and batteries... you be screaming ahead of your friends! HK could do better with the parts thing... keep in mind; the nitro trooper, nitro circus have many compatible parts (suspension, connecting rod ends, etc.) with the Sabertooth! (HobbyKing needs better parts organization and descriptions!)

Heaps of fun

Oct 28, 2019

This is a brilliant car for the money. Drives, handles and jumps really nice and whilst not bullet proof it has definitely been designed with durability in mind.
Unfortunately though it now looks like its on the path to being discontinued as a lot of crucial parts (dogbones, shock shafts, diff crown gear, front shock tower...) are no longer available. It's shame because it really is a cracking car for the money.

Nice build and performance, zero parts support

Oct 22, 2019

The car seems surprisingly well built and is quite fast and fully loaded. However, don't break anything because they have been out of stock on most parts for literal years. My car took a single front impact and cracked the front differential making the car completely worthless. The only way to have any parts support is buy two cars and cannibalize one which suddenly makes the car not as good of a value as it looks.
