I have a Cox bandido and i was just currious if anyone new what the value of it is. i have the entire car,with original manuals,2batteries and a quick charger. only thing is i the front wheels twitch back and forth the when you turn it on (i think its the servo) soo i was just wondering if its worth any money because i dont use it
Many years ago I almost considered buying this car purely from an advertisment clipping I had glued into my scrap book when i was a young teen.
I was saving up for my first real r/c buggy (Kyosho OPTIMA) and kinda glad i held it out.
Years later Ive...

Yep. These little cars get moving alright with a brushless.
They do have plastic shafts which do wear out if you leave the rear as standard.

I put this here instead of other because it's a badge-engineered Kyosho Pegasus with some red parts. Hope that makes sense...

To my surprise the gearboxes handle the power of not just the motor and lipo's but also the drag of the wet sand. Both Besty and my Bandido's have had no problems aside from the plastic driveshaft copping some extra wear.
I've rebuilt my gearbox and...

Apart from Kyosho spare parts, are there compatible dogbones and axle cup joints?
The original parts are expensive and hard to find.
Brand spankin' new. Shocks and trany are bone dry. I plan to paint the body when the humidity drops here in not so sunny Florida. This one will sit happily next to it's box, high above the reach of little hands.
