good truck but for the price, great
February 12, 2012
By new redcat fan
I was very very hesitant to buy this truck but it came with an sh .18 (3cc) motor. SH being a reputable brand of nitro motors. that cost $100 on its own and a 2.4ghz radio system. (which for all of you who have been out of the rc loop means no crystals to swap and no frequency jamming) I figured hey, if the $200 truck doesn’t last I still get $150 worth of parts for my other trucks. well to my surprise, when I opened the box it seemed of very similar quality to MUCH more expensive trucks. It is smaller then a tmaxx about the size of a hpi mt2 or traxxas nitro sport. I liked this in the end because no matter how hard i corner with it the thing will not roll over like a tmaxx will, it’s also much lighter allowing it to climb a very steep snow covered hill that my brothers tmaxx sank into.
I took it out today and abused it just to see if would fall apart like everyone says but it didn’t !!!! After a very bad crash i realized i had lost front wheel drive, but didn’t stop beating on it. When I was done I took off the body and inspected it. After all was said and done, I had lost a dog bone so i took my magnet out and retrieved it and bent it straight on the vise all was good
Now for the bad
the power switch is junk ($3 upgrade)
the shell is plastic where most are lexan (a proline body ment for a tmaxx will fit as they dont come predrilled)
although mine was fine I recommend checking the assembly before you run it as I would any machine
on a side note when the review thing asked me to rate it on educational value i had to pause. While that’s not it’s primary function, over the course of working on it it will teach you about mechanical principles. Such as how internal combustion engines work, vehicle suspensions, gear ratio’s ect. Plus it’s a good way to pull your kid (yourself, boyfreind ect) away from those video games and go outside. So for those reasons i gave it 3 stars, because while its not the point it can be educational
