The iON XB shares the same spare parts list as the existing models for easy parts availability, plus the Maverick iON range has been updated with new-spec electronics! The Maverick iON kits lead the way with fantastic brand new top-spec features: a Maverick Element 1200mAh Ni-MH battery, MTX-248 2.GHz radio and a 2-in-1 waterproof MSRS-248 receiver/speed controller.
The motor fitted in the Maverick iON XB is the reliable MM-28 370-size motor, bolted to an aluminum motor mount for extra drivetrain durability and improved heat dissipation, so drivers can keep having fun for hours and hours! The 4WD drivetrain uses ball bearings throughout to give drivers maximum runtime and efficiency, and features a molded gear cover to keep dirt and debris away from the gears. Front and rear gear differentials easily transfer the motors power to durable driveshafts and finally to the grippy rubber wheels at all four corners.
The Maverick iON XB features a complete set of gold-colored shock caps for the oil-filled shock absorbers. These add an extra bit of color and style to the chassis, just to make it look that much cooler! The suspension also features dual-wishbone independent suspension front and rear, with reliable C-hub style front hubs and extra-strong single-piece rear hubs. The strong MS-28 servo controls the steering through a dual-point steering system that features and integrated servo saver to protect the servo against crash damage.
Finishing off every Maverick iON XB is and fully detailed, completely painted and stickered body with a design that not only looks amazing, it provides additional protection for the chassis components.

Top speed isn't quoted, but we'd estimate around 20mph or so - quite nippy for their size!

Top speed isn't quoted, but we estimate around 20-25mph. Pretty nippy for a small car like this!

The stock MV28103 is the biggest battery that will fit these. It should still give around 15 mins runtime and is reasonably priced, so you can have a couple of spares if you choose.
Answered by: Ben @ Wheelspin Models
There's certainly a lot to choose from. What's your budget and we'll be happy to advise?
Answered by: Ben @ Wheelspin Models
If you have a strada, then the Ion is quite a bit smaller, so no your batteries would not fit.
Why not look at the 1:10th Strada XB instead? MV12613 and then your batteries would be compatible.

Yes, these are ready to go out of the box. A 9 year old should be fine with adult supervision.

Runtime is around 10-15 mins on the standard battery.

Both are good cars, you wouldn't be disappointed with either.
However, putting budget aside - the Vantage is 1:10, so that gives you more options for places to run and easier to upgrade with standard size electronics.

They will always be better than the chinese copies, with better backup, spares availability and us guys on the other end of the phone for any questions you may have.

That's quite a specific speed requirement, but for something faster you could look at say the FTX Vantage Brushless FTX5532

Yes in theory nothing stopping you. You would need new motor, esc, servo and radio gear though...
