    Opinion Needed! EKOS or Miss Geico? Which is better?

    Hi Guys!

    I need your expert opinion. I'm, let's just say torn between two lovers! Hahaha! I canvassed to get a bare hull + canopy of EKOS and Miss Geico.

    Here's the cost of the hulls shipped to The Philippines:

    1. EKOS bare hull + canopy + shipping = $156.25

    2. Miss Geico bare hull + canopy + Shipping = $174.21

    I like both hulls but, I can't get both without being detected by the radar of the BOSS! (wifey) hehehe! So, I can only get one of these beauties. Please give your opinion on what hull will I get more value for the buck, and will give more pleasure on running it. Maybe, what I'm asking is which is better to be my next project? Since I still have to get new motor, ESC and hardware, I'm asking first about your stand on these before I spend my money? I never had either of these hulls or any CAT for that matter. So, I have limited or no knowledge about how they perform. Any response will be highly appreciated! Thank you very much!

    BTW, I'm planning on running these on a single motor set-up on 4S or 6S. I have a T-180A esc, CC/Neu 1512 1800kv, some kedas. Plan to run in the mid 50's but if I hit 60's I'm a happy camper!

    Your Friend,

    Stephen

    I think the ekos is a better looking hull but I have never run either so can't sat which one would perform better. I suppose it depends on what you want out of it, how fast you wanna go!

        The gm is a great running hull and fun to drive but prone to crack if crashes at full speed. If you getting a hull I would go ahead and reinforce it before you run it. The kos looks cool but the quality is not up to par.
        Look at the 32" that fightercatracing sells. Very sturdy hull and also fun to run.
