FTX is really putting the pressure on the more expensive RC brands.
When I bought my son an FTX Tracer brushed, then an Arrma Vorteks 3S BLX for myself, I obviously felt the difference. One for children, one for crazy bashing. But my childs ftx already had some more quality, for example Arrma keeps and goes on wobbling more and more.
Recently FTX released same FTX Tracer w brushless motor, 1:16 size for ~£110 which does wheelies and back/frontflips on command w 2s lipo. Its crazy good value for money. Now they also go at least £100 below Rival mt10 or discounted Arrma Granite 3s blx on this 1:10 size, and they also include a lipo. Spares are also plenty everywhere and half or third the price of Arrma and other bigger brands. I must say, this is crazy good. In glad.
Good job Tomley for the review, good job FTX
For the body clips you can use some thin zip ties to join two together then if one came off you won't loose the second one and if the zip tie is yellow you and both come off you can find them pretty easy, never lost body pins again
✌🏻😎🏴I’ve been looking at this for months just waiting for someone on RUclips to get it. Sometimes I wish I didn’t even know about RC’s before they are released to the public. It’s strange. When I was younger I had loads of patience. Now I feel like the older I get the less patience I have because I have less time to live or something 😂
Me too haha… got to have it there and then!
Likewise I have no patience
@@TomleyRC me to but there money pits to but 🤷🏻♂️ idc i need them 😂
As already mentioned, it shares the same chassis/platform with the Reely New 1, Stagger and Rat Max. I've the New 1 and the Stagger and both cars a real fun 😃👍🏻 The diffs and the arms are a bit of a weak spot if you're going to bash it a bit harder. But in Germany RAGUA offers great metal an RPM upgrade parts (esp. Reely New 1). I think they should also fit to the FTX Ramraider 😃👍🏻
I've been wondering about upgrading the arms on my Carnage, but I'm worried going for stronger ones will push those forces further in and damage the chassis. (I may or may not hit the occasional tree).
Same as the FS-RACING as well. It also have weak diffs and it's kind of sad cause it is such a little good truck.
This is one tough truck,cheap RC Trucks/Cars can take more abuse than expensive ones,i have the Zorro and Rokatan and there superb machines.
Yes, they are tougher than some people think!
I was literally looking for 1/10 cheap bashers an hour ago. And then this video came 😂😂
Haha
Google is watching you 👀😋
I enjoyed the review. It's very tempting and looks like a lot fun.
Thanks mate
Tomley was like. Screw you horizon hobby and Traxxas. I will show them. Minutes later he post a video on the cheapest RTR!! 🤣 Get em Tomley RC
What a cool place to run - that bike park or whatever it was. Nice!
Yes, nice place to run
Great vid mate, Im in Australia and they are sold under the FSR (FS Racing) brand and they are called the Victory. Absolutely aswum car.
That track is absolutely gorgeous. Makes me wish I lived in the UK!
That track is absolutely gorgeous
I’ve got this truck and it give an absolute bashing when I take it and so far only broke one arm and steering knuckle. I totally agree that servo is not man enough but in the box it’s states it’s a 10kg not a 6kg
Rpm sells arms for the helion dominus sc10 and helion invictus mt10 and they will fit the ramraider
I think it's a good PRICE. Excellent Video!
Yes it’s a decent price
I've noticed another model on this platform: the FTX Apache. Looks like they are positioning themselves as the slightly cheaper alternative to Arrma.
Wow that rear shock oil is thin. What a great looking truck and a beautiful track . Very cool video
looks awesome that bud, needs a proper durability test 👍
Yeah, I’m not keen on destroying RC Cars on purpose
Recommended this for a friend to get for his son looks a great starter and comes all rtr might even get one myself as a cheap basher, to go with my new typhon 3s
Pretty fun truck indeed, Phil! 😃
Fantastic bashing and review!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
ALAN . . ALAN . . . .ALAN 😆🤣 brilliant 👍 😀 I'm a fan of ftx,this truck looks great 👍 really like it 👍👍👍😀
😅
very nice, may get one closer to spring
Cool rc, bashing and review
Cheers mate 🙏
This is what I am getting for Christmas 😅 Looks great 😀 Thank you for the Video. Does anyone know if you could upgrade this Car with a faster Motor at some stage? What size would be like the max size Motor? How about a Battery Pack as well?
There seems to be quite a few decent trucks out there lately. Don't know it's a recent thing or not.
Yes, lots of new stuff about
Probably cheaper than a 2wd Stampede which is first basher for a lot of people!
It's more than double the price 280 pounds
That looks good dreaming about getting something to bash in the snow her in Finland
Much better looking than the supermegafugly Rokutan, that's for sure!!
And why do some cars seem to shed body clips, like my cat sheds it's fur!! And it doesn't seem to matter if the pins are front to back, or side to side, the bloody things always come out!! My FTX Zorro being a prime culprit!! I ended up getting some Arrma style pins, with the rubber straps!! Problem solved. 😎🤘🏻
Looks like a pretty good truck for the price
I agree 👌
My entry level basher is the HBX 16889A, came last week!
Thats the helion Invictus..or fs racing victory x
Rpm makes parts for these trucks
FS racing manufactures everything for FTX, helion, associated, etc
I don't think I would buy one for to it being not that far and like you said servo. I've just been out with my new maverick ion and it's very fast, but the body not so great and pretty much every time I jumped it stopped working I think it's where you plug in the battery it is coming lose not connecting, so gotta push back in. But I pad around £55 and it's great for that price. Had a French audience at the skate park who were very excited watching.😅
That's just the Reely that had Sand paddles and a crappy body. The MT tires and body are cool. They did improve it some.
Yes, this chassis is shared with the Reely stuff
I bought one at an auction for £160 together with a £50 RC Boat, great deal, too bad It's for resale, I would love to keep it.
The green one looks the best one and xm__x springs to mind lol
I just ordered the rlaarlo amoril am x12 for 150$. So looking forward to it
mjx hype go brushless is also the cheapest 3s rtr
come on just bought the Rokatan. I know it's the same chassis and all but maybe I'll grab this next year to go alongside it.
Rokatan is a solid buy 👌
This is a swb chassis
#1#LOVE THIS ONE#LOVE IT
@TomleyRC are hop ups for the ramraider new? Brilliant videos as always, loving the advent calendar 👍
Looks like a good one for the price
Yes, makes a change to be a decent price
Lets gooooooooooo, CHEAP STUFF, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Seems like the wheelie bar was making it crash more then it was helping? might be better to take it off for experienced drivers like yourself. Great Video I prefer all things short course truck so now I have to watch the Senton Video again and drool Bahahaha!!
Yes, although may have saved it a few times as well 😅
Like the video Phil it's really good for the money I think 🤔 identify for Christmas present 🎁 I think 🤔😄😀
Can you do a review on
Ftx hi rock thinking about getting my first rc crawler for christmas
Are these a clone of helion rc cars and trucks
Pretty cool 👍🏻
Next rebranded FS RACING/REELY NEW1...they are good but I see no sense in adjustables on front near wheels, forgot how its called
Pretty cool basher, way to expensive here in Sweden though. Great review as always!
Great video 👍🏼
Thanks mate
Bought one of these today! Think it came with a defect, something isn’t right with the front left shaft, it’s moving around a lot in the diff, taking it back for inspection tomorrow, don’t want a refund just want to have a play with it haha
I have got a reely stagger recently from Conrad, and its the exact same chassis and suspension arm. Only this one has bodyposts. And the stagger doesn't.
Good set ups, the Rokatan (Reely Rat) impressed me
@@TomleyRC i bought the kit version, and had a blast building it. It's a sturdy platform.
What size motor gear can you recommend for 40+ mph ? Good video just bought one of these.
nice vid Phil where is that pump track looks an awesome place to take an rc! good looking truck as well
It’s in Nottingham. Rushcliffe Country Park
@@TomleyRC thanks will have to plan a trip from London!
Great job
Is this filmed at ruddington country park???
You're getting pretty good with ya guesstimates on the speeds, but I know that you're honest enough not to do some sneaky editing about them 🤣😁😉
This really looks a lot like the HSP Wolverine/HNR Mars (bodywise as well as some other comoponents, not exact, but some resemblance for sure) as a self appointed Banggood/Aliexpress RC expert. Also just realized the Maxx design is just the Rival MT-10 with more HGH.
No, its the helion Invictus or fs racing victory x
I save those desiccat packets and put them on my dashboard on my old Jeep because it does a really good job of keeping the windshield from fogging up
Does it have the same wheelbase as the Rokatan.?
Modelsport list it as 270 ish & the Rokatan at 330 ish...
I didn’t check, it may be shorter, I’ll have to have a look now you mention it
12:01 Lucky You have Reactions of a Wanker! Mad Love and Respect from Bama.
great!!!! is is same of reely new1?
Do the led light work just from plugging in ?
That track looks great. Is it a lime stone surface? Like button energized.
Not sure, really nice track though
Will you be doing the new FTX Apache?
What would you choose, Rokatan, apache or ramraider?
I wonder if plastics on ftx are any better than on other brands selling this chassis? And there is loads of them. Nice to see parts will keep flowing with another new model
Would love to see a GMADE GOM review video still please
Another great video, can I ask your view comparing this to the FTX Carnage brushless?
I'd like to know this too!
hello .. is it higher on grass compared to the zorro Brushless .. is it more durable ?
It looks good. Could use a little more pep tho
FTX best cheap rc cars
What servo would u upgrade it to
My broke in the same place twice now and doesn't turn probably been looking to upgrade but can't seem to find any upgrade parts from it
I'm in uk
Looks like an X-Maxx but stronger 🤣.
Does the transmitter have speed control ? Want one for my son but can’t have 3s max power🤣 to much for him
I got this car recently and noticed the charger is slow what faster charger would you recommend
Did you get the purple on or did you not see it?
Boom 🎉🎉🎉
How come a more expensive ftx uses cross head screws, when a cheaper ftx model like the vantage or carnage uses hex head?
I guess it depends on the manufacturer, FTX don’t manufacture stuff themselves
When You jump it and it lands it sounds really cheesy. I don't know how to explain it. It sounds hollow. Really nice looking truck. Looks like it handles the jumps half decent. I really do like the look though.😮😊
Straight up a helion invictus 10mt!!!!!!!!
Does it share platform with any other brand/model?
280 not too bad
Mini X Maxx
Mr Phil, can you check into the panda hobby tetra 24 v2? I got the v1 and it's a mess, hoping the v2 has issues fixed
I’ll take a look. I have a couple of V1’s
This or pay the extra for a DR8 Phil? This looks quicker with all the wheelies etc ☺️
How does it compare to the FTX Carnage? (Just bought one and, well, I can always make room for another...)
Carnage is a good for the money, this is about double the price, and a little better.
@@TomleyRC I should have specified, Carnage Brushless.
I'm just wondering if it's worth upgrading the electronics (that annoying lag is, well, annoying) or look at a more-betterer starting point and keep the Carnage as a spare.
It's that impossible dilemma really.
I guess the real question is, do they supply fake receipts so the wife doesn't know how much I've spent?
Had one of these as the Helion Invictus, was not a bad rig, the steering screws were too long in board on the rack and would catch. Unfortunately had to grind them down so they would not catch, then it worked OK. I still have the wheels and tires from my Invictus, sold the truck though a while ago. Don't miss it really, replaced it with the Helion Avenge when they were for sale for $199, I believe the Avenge is a much better truck then my Invictus was. Looks like its got a nice body and wheels on this truck though.
Was thinking I hadn't seen that location before! How do FTX even find such a low KG servo? 🤣
I absolutely love the Rocketan! Why doexx sac it cost so much more than this?
Brilliant thanks so much that worked, the only problem now is I can't get it to go in reverse, any help please 🙏, sorry I,m new to RC cars
hmmm... I've not got mine to hand.... but it may tell you in the instructions how to calibrate the esc. I messaged FTX after your comment to let them know there maybe some issues with these not connecting out the box

Ok thanks for getting back
what place is that (the bmx looking park) seems like a nice place to go bmxing and bashing
Hi does anybody know where to get a replacement driveshaft from I’ve looked everywhere online new drivers and they are not listed on FTX website either
I like to think that most RTR vehicles have sluggish steering...
Yeah, very true
Are there really any companies that don't ship out RCs with underpowered steering servos? 🤔
I think I've had to replace them on everything I own.
Yeah, pretty normal isn’t it for RTR’s. Although I’ve noticed a few recently that are really good out the box
Will you doing a best money for value top 10 lower end basher video before xmas mate ?
Have you ever tried or reviewed the Bezgar HM164? I would really like your opinion on that one.
Would a different battery get it upto or past 40 mph? Will it take 4S sorry band new to RC
Yes possible… and it’s pretty cold at the mo. It doesn’t run 4s
@Tomley RC Thanks mate
So in theory I could put a 100C 3s and it wouldn't damage it.
This is my first rc so it's all a bit confusing.
Read up on it hundreds of times but still confused what is the best battery to get the most out of your system and how to do the maths based on the system.
Could anyone work out the best battery for the Ramraider as an example. So I can somehow workout how you got to that conclusion
How does this compare to the mt10?
Why does it say 3652 2500kv bl motor on the box and in the car it's 3665 2900kv?
Motor end plate is wrong
