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!
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
I was literally looking for 1/10 cheap bashers an hour ago. And then this video came 😂😂
Haha
Google is watching you 👀😋
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.
Rpm sells arms for the helion dominus sc10 and helion invictus mt10 and they will fit the ramraider
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
I enjoyed the review. It's very tempting and looks like a lot fun.
Thanks mate
Next rebranded FS RACING/REELY NEW1...they are good but I see no sense in adjustables on front near wheels, forgot how its called
I've noticed another model on this platform: the FTX Apache. Looks like they are positioning themselves as the slightly cheaper alternative to Arrma.
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
I think it's a good PRICE. Excellent Video!
Yes it’s a decent price
That track is absolutely gorgeous
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?
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.😅
Thats the helion Invictus..or fs racing victory x
Rpm makes parts for these trucks
FS racing manufactures everything for FTX, helion, associated, etc
Probably cheaper than a 2wd Stampede which is first basher for a lot of people!
It's more than double the price 280 pounds
I’ve seen advertised with 10kg servo. Have they been upgraded since?
What a cool place to run - that bike park or whatever it was. Nice!
Yes, nice place to run
That looks very, very much like a FS Racing - Victory X. Same bump for the transmiission in the chassi, same cover for the motor gearbox. The covers for the front and rear diffs are similar.
FS racing manufactures everything for FTX and helion and associated and red cat, etc
@@kenmastersmaster Nah, not all Red Cats, perhaps current models but the Caldera is made by BSD. This I know because I have two of the BSDs.
That track is absolutely gorgeous. Makes me wish I lived in the UK!
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. 😎🤘🏻
Pretty fun truck indeed, Phil! 😃
Fantastic bashing and review!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
looks awesome that bud, needs a proper durability test 👍
Yeah, I’m not keen on destroying RC Cars on purpose
mjx hype go brushless is also the cheapest 3s rtr
Lets gooooooooooo, CHEAP STUFF, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
ALAN . . ALAN . . . .ALAN 😆🤣 brilliant 👍 😀 I'm a fan of ftx,this truck looks great 👍 really like it 👍👍👍😀
😅
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
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
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
Does the transmitter have speed control ? Want one for my son but can’t have 3s max power🤣 to much for him
Wow that rear shock oil is thin. What a great looking truck and a beautiful track . Very cool video
What size motor gear can you recommend for 40+ mph ? Good video just bought one of these.
Are these a clone of helion rc cars and trucks
Looks like an X-Maxx but stronger 🤣.
very nice, may get one closer to spring
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
The green one looks the best one and xm__x springs to mind lol
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 😅
Looks like a pretty good truck for the price
I agree 👌
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.
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
What would you choose, Rokatan, apache or ramraider?
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.😮😊
I got this car recently and noticed the charger is slow what faster charger would you recommend
Looks like a good one for the price
Yes, makes a change to be a decent price
FTX best cheap rc cars
My entry level basher is the HBX 16889A, came last week!
I just ordered the rlaarlo amoril am x12 for 150$. So looking forward to it
Cool rc, bashing and review
Cheers mate 🙏
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
Why does it say 3652 2500kv bl motor on the box and in the car it's 3665 2900kv?
Motor end plate is wrong
hello .. is it higher on grass compared to the zorro Brushless .. is it more durable ?
That looks good dreaming about getting something to bash in the snow her in Finland
280 not too bad
Mini X Maxx
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
Can you do a review on
Ftx hi rock thinking about getting my first rc crawler for christmas
"crosshead isnt ideal" - theyre 100x better than the crappy allen heads usually fitted to rc cars
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
This is a helion Invictus chassis
I just bought one yesterday, batteries fully charged, new batteries in control, have turned on power but then nothing happens. Is there something that has to be done with controller i.e sink it to the jeep. Any help would be great, tks
With the transmitter switched off, hold the bind button then switch it on... the green lights will flash. Then switch the truck on a wait until it connects. Mine had the same issue. I think it may also tell you how to 'bind' it in the instructions. Hope that helps.
Do the led light work just from plugging in ?
Like the video Phil it's really good for the money I think 🤔 identify for Christmas present 🎁 I think 🤔😄😀
Pretty cool 👍🏻
The slipper clutch is a no no for me I don't know companies just don't use center differentials
Still quite a common thing, but yeah, centre diffs are way better
Straight up a helion invictus 10mt!!!!!!!!
Does it share platform with any other brand/model?
nice
Pretty cool basher, way to expensive here in Sweden though. Great review as always!
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.
Is this filmed at ruddington country park???
@TomleyRC are hop ups for the ramraider new? Brilliant videos as always, loving the advent calendar 👍
Boom 🎉🎉🎉
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
Did you get the purple on or did you not see it?
Another great video, can I ask your view comparing this to the FTX Carnage brushless?
I'd like to know this too!
Will you be doing the new FTX Apache?
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 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
That track looks great. Is it a lime stone surface? Like button energized.
Not sure, really nice track though
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?
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
Great job
Shocks look like overdamped
Luckily you can tune them
This or pay the extra for a DR8 Phil? This looks quicker with all the wheelies etc ☺️
looks lika hoss
So a cheaper xmaxx ? Had an ftx vantage had a weakness with gravel getting into gears and sold it looking for another rc my two tamiyas are weak
I got a typhon 3s 🎉
Whats better a mt10 or this 🤔
It looks good. Could use a little more pep tho
12:01 Lucky You have Reactions of a Wanker! Mad Love and Respect from Bama.
Great video 👍🏼
Thanks mate
HOW FAST IS IT IN MPH
How does this compare to the mt10?
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 🤣😁😉
I absolutely love the Rocketan! Why doexx sac it cost so much more than this?
