    My buddy got me into Serpent kits, and I love them! The rtr's are the best out IMO. Great video. 👍

    If you look on Serpent Ltd, they have the rtr a arms. It looks like most front end parts as well. I wasn't sure if you were aware. Have a great day. 🍻

      Yeah i see that now. along with other parts that weren't in stock. looks like serpent Americas also has some now as well so they must be getting their parts back. thanks

    On Serpent’s website they say that the RTR is fully upgradeable to the Kit version. Just went and checked as I’m also looking into this buggy. That’s great news.

      Yeah it is all the same parts. It would be a bit pricy to convert. But yes it is all compatible

      the only difference is the size of shocktower holes front rear. will not work with rtr suspension.

    i ran into problems trying to upgrade shocktowers, the holes are bigger on rtr, had to upgrade whole suspension.

      yeah, and it seems driveshafts are differents and they are longer on RTR than Kit pro, the size of one of the ball bearing knuckle is different too

      My experience with Serpent USA (Desoto) in Florida was positive. My 811te RTR had wheel nut snafu & they shipped me the pieces I broke & added additional parts I may have needed (that I didn't request) it was A+ experience.

    Why is it that builders kits are usually way more money than a rtr. Wouldn't you think the kit would be like half the price seeing how they don't have to build an entire car themselves.

      @theatvfamily with this kit, I see that. They should be able to offer kit versions of the same rtr for cheaper, wouldn't you think?
