    You have the most amazing crawling and trail spots!! I’ve never got into the crawling/trail side of the hobby but I plan on doing it. I think it would be soooo much fun to go on hikes through the woods with my little girl and an rc. She loves rc like her daddy. I just wish it wasn’t so expensive for a decent 10th scale rig.. single dad life so it’ll take a while to save up for one… I saw the ascent and that looks awesome and more affordable than most so I might save for that. Hopefully by spring this way me and the little one can enjoy the trails together. Thanks so much for all the reviews and amazing running footage!! Mme and my little girl love watching.. and congrats again on 100k brother

That’s why I’m trying to find something like 10th scale. I’m thinking the red cat ascent might be a good way to go.

    Great review. At least as far as USA model Toyota Pickups, RC4WD kinda messed up with the year of this model. 1985 was the last year of Leaf Spring front suspension on the Toyota 4wd pickups - 1986 they switched to IFS front suspension on the pickups. They should be calling this a 1985 Toyota

    • @gimzoguy5014
      @gimzoguy5014 11 месяцев назад +1

      @brianwood9849 probably cause the straight axle is simpler and more robust. They already had them all made so they didn't have to design an ifs system and everyone that builds a rock crawler in the real world does a straight axle swap anyway with either toyota axles or a Dana 40 or Dana 60

  • @matusknives
    @matusknives 11 месяцев назад +1

    It looks really nice. I am not too impressed by how the suspension works - looks a bit too stiff. I kinda expected it to be more plush. This car is in a way a competitor to something like BRX01, so that is what I naively compare it to. It is great to hear that RC4WD did improvements on the axles as those were apparently the weak spot of the TF2 chassis.

    • @RCReviewChannel

    • @yodapig
      @yodapig 11 месяцев назад +2

      RC4WD leaf springs are always stiff out of the box (and the shocks typically come with small springs inside too) - both of those elements can be tweaked easily if you want to tune your ride height and articulation.

  • @rcgeneration824

    What kills it for me is that the suspension is always stiff, hard plastic seats, and the screws on the rocker panels. Not very scale in my opinion. Don't get me wrong I still think it's an awesome rig, one that I may not be able to afford at the moment but I still say that RC4WD should up their game in those areas.

      Body scratches are good on a hardbody since they show history and character like a real car.
