This is what I wish the Atlas 6x6 was.
That transmitter is nice for an RTR! I love how far the cab tips so you can access all the electronics. What a great RTR hauler!
Another thorough walk through. Finally getting one, can’t wait!
Heck yeah man! Hope you love it!
Back watching again, Matt 11:35 PM Tuesday, August 20, I’ve seen the one guy on RUclips. Can’t think of them name he painted his silver the body looks awesome. Yep I got the blue one is on the way the more I watch these videos the more I get stoked, yeah love this hobby 👍👍😎
Thanks for the great review! I’m really enjoying the channel! My Arktos just arrived and it’s really an awesome truck. Quality is impressive and tons of features. Definitely a must have. Thanks again for the great content! ✌🏼👊🏼
Fantastic truck and thorough review! You the man!
@@MysticRiverRC thanks! I definitely left out a few things I should’ve covered but that always happens. Always realize it once it’s live 😆
Wow, that’s super sweet Matt. I’m liking that holler.👍👍
The tires look like a hyrax and a super swamper had a baby😂
Youve got a winch in a flat bed, perfect for side hilling, use it to hold it down, not necessarily pull, run it out to the side in front of where youre heading, enough to make it to a safe zone rinse and repeat if necessary
That was sweet cool rig. I would have liked to see the rover in neutral while it was being hoisted up.
My next rig keeps changing 😂 . It's great i can always find the latest here first
Haha! I appreciate ya! Hope you enjoy it IF you go with this one 😆
YES!! FINALLY!!!
I've been waiting for this to come out since the expo!
I liked the burgundy with black wheels they had there best...
YES!!
Hello Matt back watching again 5:37 PM Sunday, August 18 just ordered the yellow one. I tried using your discount code did not work no biggie. I am stoked on getting this car hauler for sure. Appreciate the video as always.👍👍
@@andyrichey1192 yeah unfortunately I don’t have a discount with Helidirect. Sorry about that but hope you love the truck!!!
Not even that bad of a price! I've probably spent that much on replacement parts for our Atlas 6x6...
@@JacobScherer haha! Thats for sure!
@@2fmrc I said no more rigs till Black Friday, but I couldn't shake this one... Ordered with your link!
Hello Matt back watching Monday, August 19 I did order the yellow one but then I discovered the blue one has the black bed. I contacted Hobby plus and they switched it to the blue one super cool, can’t wait to get it👍👍
That is a sweet little rig for sure! Awesome video Matt!
@@exlewisrc3674 really appreciate that! Cool truck for sure imo
@@2fmrc I love that the big things I didn’t want bc they were, well big, are now going smaller🤘🏻keep up the great content!
Great vid bro! Really impressive rig 6x6 from Hobby Plus.
Dang it that is sweet. Love all the lights oh man.😏👍👍
Great review! This is a fantastic truck for the money with all of the options!
yeah pretty cool i like the way u gave the Rangie a little rest cos they never let u down out in the scrub,, thanks' matt another cool vid
Finally something new
Super fun, Thanks for sharing. I’ll probably get in trouble for buying this one!
All the specs and performance look like to be there, but there's something about the esthetics and scale of the cab that just looks off to me. I looks like a great rig, I'm just hung up on its looks. Great review and running, Matt!
Nice truck awesome stuff 👏 👌 👍
This is an amazing review, thanks a ton. I want my first 6x6 now. Thank you!
If I decide to buy this one I'll make sure to use your link. A little tight on funds at the moment so I hope the affiliate link works for months in the future.
@@Griller1977 yeah it’ll work. I don’t actually get any commission or anything from the link on these but it’ll show where the traffic to their site comes from if they pay attention lol. I greatly appreciate it. Let me know if you get one!
So sweet, working winch, all the lights yeah just had to have one👍👍😁
I just ordered my blue version 6x6 for my camel rock crawler. Thx for the video. Oh and I made sure to use your link to buy it too😊 !
Hope you love it! I really appreciate that 🙏
@@2fmrc Thanks 👍
@@2fmrc I just got it a day or so ago. I do love it ! Wish the winch could be raised up or down in the back, so I could get my 1/24 Land Rover up & in easier.
Looks nice on the list for sure
good vid! I'm sold & gonna get a blue one
I want to make a European Trials Truck out of it!
Now you're speaking my language 🤙
Ok stock Smasher tire are going on mine next week
thanks for testing these with other receivers. I like that they are becoming more and more usable across diff tx of the same brand; they just need to sort out the channels.
Seems like all hp rigs have a lot more slop than any others... i remember seeing a comparison between the 2speed portals hp vs 2speed portals of fms and hp visibly had more slop. still sadly that hasn't been address.
Great show how to setup the sway bars.l
how's the power/torque? normally they have been weaker than fms with same to similar paper stats.
Great video Matt, detailed as always ❤
Meh.. I'm shy away from Cheap Rc's now days. Still waiting for a Vanquish 1/18 scale.
Not liking the rims.
I've had contant issues with the FCX 18.
Only one thing I wish they would’ve done is the bed would’ve been black instead of gray other than that I love it looks good out there dude, sure appreciate the video👍👍😎
@@andyrichey1192 yeah same here. It is black on the blue truck I believe so maybe a swap is in order lol
@@2fmrc yes hobby plus switched it to the blue one for me. I emailed them they got back right away super cool.👍👍
@@andyrichey1192 awesome!
😮😊 let goo!!
Howdy!
yes for so many reasons, i need to have this lol.
@@GearHeadJonny haha!
That's perfect for the 24s the 18s are too big for it
With a proper paint job on the cab it will look sweet
I wish the cab was licensed,it looks like one of those small plastic tonka trucks
@@Bonitacreekrcs exactly
I think it should have been labeled an odd size like 1:22 or 1:20 but then it would probably get overlooked or ignored completely because people in the RC community stigmatized non common sizes. Personally I would have labeled it a 1/24
I think if anything I would use this just to haul my rig to the pile and then go from there but also what about a short stiff spring fart as does it have shocks
I wonder if you removed the bed entirely, put some brass wheels and better tires if it would become a wicked crawler?
Did it got diff lockers on all axles. I didn't get it?
i'm curious what its based on, i'm guessing a Kamaz
For some reason I want this, but not sure I will pull the trigger. Are the lights on it bright enough for night use?
@@jrmbtr bright enough for me! I just posted a short showing it’s “night moves” 😆
ruclips.net/user/shortsEowxotcN76I?si=jMEcwPRAXXVa1mBe
@@2fmrc That does appear to be more than adequate. Man...I might actually end up buying this thing.
I got one of these today. One odd thing I am experiencing, when I turn on the transmitter the G.LED light keeps blinking and there is a constant beeping sound. It still binds and works but I cannot get rid of that annoying sound and blinking. I have tried changing batteries, re-binding but this is still happening. Would you be able to tell why this could be happening and how could I fix this? Thanks!
Great looking truck, but the claimed 1/18th scale makes me chuckle. it looks small for a 1/24!
Can you buy replacement parts for it? I want to get one if it does!
@@TheBigmomkey999 yeah it runs all of the cr18p parts basically. A few upgrades are even starting to trickle in for it.
Good video, sad thing is i wanted this for months and now im seeing video`s not so sure i still want one, it looks ace just dont think its for me
Sympa, j'hésite à en acheter un. Il est réaliste pour des crawlers 1/24. Mais quand c'est un 1/18, il fait trop petit 😢
Do you have a discount code for heli direct?
No. Sorry
Please companies should think of you as the goat of 24
Looks just a little bit toyish for me but it is cool
14:48 i would rather be interested in your build of the mofo wild chassis with the mofo pancake motor. My front links touched motor and motor touched driveshaft with that stupid angle that makes little sense. Had to put a smaller motor in.
@@snörre23 yeah I had a little clearance issue up front. I shimmed my transmission a bit to get it off the driveshaft.
@@2fmrc Just what i was thinking about but did not find time yet. I have a 3D printer but i am a beginner at drawing.
An excellent attempt at copying the Axial UMG18 flatbed
@@CAPRAQUEENRC well axial won’t make one so 🤷🏻♂️
@@2fmrc I’ll just enjoy mine then ❤️
I can't imagine who would want this. Maybe a three year old child that likes "trucks". My interest in crawlers is about capability, and other RC cars maybe if its sth. i find cool in real life. But this ???
@@snörre23 lots of people only want scale looks over performance. I was like you up until probably 4 months ago when I got my first true “scale” truck and since then I really couldn’t care what lines it can do. As long as it looks good and has a lot of scale points. So you gotta look at both sides of the hobby. Some want nothing to do with your performance trucks 🤷🏻♂️ Good thing is… we all have choices!
Guess you have never heard of practicality or utility vehicles before?? It's not meant to be at a car show, it's a friggin work truck 😅
