    And thank you for the B-Roll! It was an impressive collection of extravagant clips, that outline the Joy that was had, or could be had if we all get ourselves a new Furitek FX118!
    Thank you Matt for your continuing dedication to the hobby!

    Honestly, it strikes me as a TRX4m with upgrade chassis rails and brushless electronics. It's honestly a really good deal for $200.

  • @VermontScaleCustoms
    @VermontScaleCustoms Год назад

    For $200 you're getting a lot in an 18th scale RTR. What would be cool, though, is if some of these RC companies would think about releasing a Dodge Power Wagon at some point.
    I agree with you, like the Jeep Rubicon, there are not enough of them.

  • @jeffmackovitch9987

    What else would you do to that???? Links wheels and tires and maybe a servo it's about all you need maybe a little weight up front and that's it!!!

  • @robinkesterlives
    @robinkesterlives Год назад

    The body doesnt do anything for me but the chassis and gear are outstanding looking. We know how good Furitek's gear is, so it has to be a win.

    • @robinkesterlives
      @robinkesterlives Год назад

      The black body with flames does look cool. Great overall deal, esp for those who want to try a proper crawler in a smaller scale w a solid elec tronics setup.

  • @player1dad808

    I don't love this body style but the platform looks good. I'd want to put a scx or trx4m high trail body on it if possible.

    • @scalebuildersguild
      @scalebuildersguild  Год назад

      The wheelbase is pretty close for the TRX4M but the SCX might be too big. Thanks for watching!

  • @keldonator
    @keldonator Год назад

    Is the wheelbase the same as the rock van? Also, is the esc and receiver separate?

    • @scalebuildersguild
      @scalebuildersguild  Год назад +1

      Sorry, don’t have a Rock Van. ESC and Receiver are separate.

  • @keldonator
    @keldonator Год назад

    Pretty sure those are plastic beadlock wheels. This is by far the best deal out there for this scale. The esc makes this thing so great. That's always the weakest link on others and on this is the strong point.

    • @scalebuildersguild
      @scalebuildersguild  Год назад +1

      You're correct! They're beadlock wheels. It REALLY is a great deal!

      You get a substantially better power system here. It's not nearly as "scale" but a much better driving experience in my opinion.

    The body is a pass for me, but the chassis alone is worth it. As for modding it, I say you 3d print a Pinto body, paint it a rusty brown and add an exploded gas tank in the back.
