Just to clarify.... I didn't say it's 'Cheap'..... I said it's possibly the 'Cheapest' Fully Loaded RC Crawler you can buy. It cost me £336 Delivered, and just for reference the TRX4 (with a winch) is £620 in the UK. £336 Vs £620... Just saying 😅 s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DezkMX9
Been waiting for this review.. love this style truck looks awesome...Great features great price too..definitely be getting one...lot of comments moaning about the price..🤣😂🤣 ..go find something similar cheaper..Great review mate..be great to see some upgrade reviews too...👍
dangit! i was JUST about to head to my LHS for RedCat GEN 9.. Now i'm up in arms! the winch is kinda f*n awesome, and this seems like a REDCAT but not branded as one because radio controller?
@@rogueFactor redcat gen 9 is 400$, this is 537$. Even if the are the same price I would get redcat, or to be honest, trax4 sport is the best crawler for the money
I swear RGT is really becoming one of the best I brought my first one back in 2015 an been a fan ever since just getting abit experience for us Aussies
I like it. Only issue in the US I couldn’t get replacement drivetrain parts in 2 days or less. Most non drivetrain parts I could fab or adapt something but drivetrain stuff is pretty specific. It’s nice that the transmitter has a real momentary switch for a winch. I hope they sell those transmitters by themselves. It looks like Redcat uses the same manufacturer for transmitters too
Dude, that is gorgeous! I want to convert one to a wooden flatbed hauler. I'm definitely getting this, one for my brother as well. Excellent review video, Phil. You never disappoint!
Owning 4 RGT models and have to say I'm always impressed by the value for the money they give. And plenty of spare and upgrade parts available. This one looks like a cheaper alternative to a premium brand, but certainly capable of holding his own. Great review once again 👍🏻
Sure, it's really nicely kitted. But for me in Sweden, it's almost 200 bucks more than a SXC10 II. RTR. So I could get the SCX10 and kit it for like 150, and still come out cheaper. Sure, this is insanely speced, all the goodies. And I bet it's not a bad truck, rather the opposite. But it's a lot of money for off-brand.
Bad ass looking rig! Phil, I know it's a little older but you should look into the rebel rc rebelcon ( aka as the absima sherpa/ yikong yk4102 for you on your side of the pond) fully loaded with lockable diffs too..I love mine !
For those who said "redcat gen8 is better" , "ftx is better", "it is expensive" Bro redcat,ftx and rgt is literally sharing the same exact parts. Just a bit additional from their company. Scx10 II has 100% same axle as rgt ex86100v2 lol. RGT is a premium crawler brand from HSP which is sharing most parts with Redcat. Buy an RGT and find an Axial parts. You can mount it lol
You got me Atwood largest wrecker. Then I see in description, Matt's off-road recovery. I follow MORR, TrailMater or Roy and Paul with FabRats. Definitely want to see you make this into the heavy wrecker!
I got my 1/24 scale powerwagon I love it got my back yard course done put some lights on the course for night time crawling now I gotta find neighbors to get into the hobby
Realise you reviewed this rig. Was considering the Rescuer V2 but the price on this is whats keeping me going for this in the coming weeks.. Where I'm from this cost around 300usd so considering what it offers I'm going for it! 😂
Cool truck. I didn't know that the dig function was even a thing. The quality looks there, and as much as I tend to slather grease all over gear trains, they don't need 'that' much. Some is good though.
I wish it was possible to switch the steering to the other axle and switch the body around. That would give scale Rwd/4wd with a line lock on the front, and the winch in the front. My dream crawler would have a reverse dig giving you selectable Rwd/4wd, high/low gearing, selectable locking front and rear diffs, a front winch, and a rear tow boom with winch. A rear dig and front line lock would be nice too.
Beautiful camera work! And that's a great start to the MORR wrecker, but it's going to take some real dedication to design and print all the pieces to make it close.
Que tal mi amigo ....!!se están poniendo las pilas los de RGT ya que cuenta con una buena gama de crawlers muy capaces como este modelo con dig, 2 velocidades ejes de portal etc, etc, un 10 su diseño retro muy power wagon...y claro es masivo.....!!!!!saludos desde México
I had to order it to be able to get 1 because my local hobby shop got the first batch and sold out that same day so mine came from the 2nd batch I’m going to put a 3300kv axe combo in it and already have all brass an metal axle housings on it
RGT keep delivering. Traxxas fans just salty about having to pay extra for stuff that should be included. Looks like brass bits from the LandCruiser should fit portals/diffs.
Great looking rig! You should look into what yikong is bringing out now with there 1/8 and 1/10 crawlers. That and the new hobbywing fusion se aswell 👌
Hi! Lovely video and very interesting craeler! Just recently got into this “sport” from the complete opposite sport if speedrunning and I have to say it’s quite fun! Or … much more fun than I expected 😁! Quick question though…are the diffs in this locked? Ingit that you can’t remotely lock/unlock them but Inwas wondering if they are locked by default or if there is a non remote way to lock/unlock them!
$536 after “fees?” And shipping. Cool truck but far from cheap for a brand that isn’t supported by any local hobby shops. If it was ~$400 to your door then I could see it being at least in the price range of the gen 9 redcat. Trx4’s and scxiii’s can be had all day for $400 used and would be a better supported rig imo. Cool body though!

just proves why i will never own a traxxa$

Patiently waiting for the "World's Largest Wrecker "conversion *Hint Hint* 😏
Might have something along the same idea coming very soon 👌
😂🤘🤘🤘🤘
Came to the comments for this!
I swear RGT is really becoming one of the best I brought my first one back in 2015 an been a fan ever since just getting abit experience for us Aussies
They certainly make some awesome trucks!
The cinematography is wonderful
What a terrific find! Looks beauty!
Certainly enjoyed driving it

It’s nice that the transmitter has a real momentary switch for a winch. I hope they sell those transmitters by themselves. It looks like Redcat uses the same manufacturer for transmitters too
The axles also look real "gen 8" or "gen9" to me
I think it’s a dumbo RC radio though I can’t em ever which one.
Dude, that is gorgeous! I want to convert one to a wooden flatbed hauler. I'm definitely getting this, one for my brother as well. Excellent review video, Phil. You never disappoint!
Cheers dude. It’s got so much potential to be one of the best out there. Hobbywing motor… so brass… and a good set of wheels n tyres 👌
Put one on my whish list, but prices seems to have risen a bit.. €550 for me 😓.
Owning 4 RGT models and have to say I'm always impressed by the value for the money they give.

Where do you buy spares from ?

For me one of the best Crawler of 2023 by far!!!
Certainly a contender 👌

Totally agree. I have the Absima Sherpa and love it, a great value fully featured rig.👍

This gem has Heavy Wrecker printed all over it! It looks very nice.
Absolutely love that you know Matt's off-road towing
That’s a great looking truck. Love the yellow. That was an actual dodge color..
When I bought my ECTO, I planned on making it into the worlds largest off road wrecker, but as you know its not done! Cheers, and great video!!
COOL LOOKING TRUCK FULL OF FEATURES. MY OPINION REASONABLE PRICE. THANKS FOR SHARING PHIL. TAKE CARE SIR HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT WEEK 🇬🇧✌🏼
Cheers Mike. You too mate 😎🤘
Thanks Mr. Tomley :) Got mine today from Banggood and hopefully the rain's stopped tomorrow so I can try it out. I got the red one.
Best one you have reviewed I think. Vary nice.
Cheers mate
Love the off rd recovery reference
Front axels snaps in no time under heavy use.With a pair of scx lll axels its a fantastic truck.
You got me Atwood largest wrecker. Then I see in description, Matt's off-road recovery. I follow MORR, TrailMater or Roy and Paul with FabRats. Definitely want to see you make this into the heavy wrecker!
This might be the first crawler I buy...Laddie!!!
🔥🤘
Great review & video Phil, love the look of this rig, never had a crawler before, very tempted by this one, guess FTX will bring one out soon.
is this the one with the half hard body/half lexan ? and it looks way better in videos than just pictures on a website
It’s got some moulded parts on, but the body is lexan
Not a bad price for all the features included. Pretty cool!!
Its a nice truck RGT/FTX have come a long way, i love my Modded Texan and Fury 2.0
I got my 1/24 scale powerwagon I love it got my back yard course done put some lights on the course for night time crawling now I gotta find neighbors to get into the hobby
WOW! 😲 That’s AWESOME! 🔥 Very cool! 👍😀👍
Ohh Man that was an enjoyable video. Little truck looks awesome.
Would be cool to see this actually turned into the world’s biggest off-road wrecker, if you still have it. I know you already built the banana.
Subscribed for the potential wrecker build!
Great review and nice truck for the money 👍🏻👍🏻
Nice rig. RGT makes good stuff. Have a couple
Heck yeah RC heaven for sure, watching now appreciate the video I’ll be watching for more
I bought one today on ali express . The price is reasonable $554.00 can at my door. Can't wait to get my hands on it.
I meant Canadian.
Nice videos love your videos keep up the great work
Thanks 🙏
Nice looking rig. Great vid as always. John
Awesome video Phil! I definitely can picture as a flat black rat rod wrecker..
Rat Rod wrecker 🔥

Woot woot! Matt’s off-road!!!
😎🤘
The fart 💨 sound when you put the box back in almond made me spit me drink . I was not ready for that lol
Sweet maybe for my next Christmas I will get this
Beautiful camera work! And that's a great start to the MORR wrecker, but it's going to take some real dedication to design and print all the pieces to make it close.
Like that a lot and not too bad value compared to how much RC stuff is starting to cost these days!
Exactly
If always liked RGTStuff. Great rcs
I love the inner fender covers on it, for sure gonna be the rgt i go for, but ill be swapping those portals out for straight axles
Why swap out the portals?
@@fionnclaffey4190 i like the more scale appearance of a straight axle and for me portals make everything too easy
Love the "testing" bit.
I've already got the crusher/Texan and love it but I'm definitely getting this one for the platform to build my dream budget unimog 😍👍
Love the color. Good decision.
NEED! RGT Way to go
Matts off road recovery squat here💪🌞👍🤩😺💫 So we've got a call!!!)
We’ll get ‘em out 🤘
That is really nice truck
Nice truck Tomley.......Thanks
Cheers Dan
@0:46 🤣 Gets me every time. 🤣
😅
Sweet! 😀. So it just needs batteries/charger... Really cool!
I guess this just gived the trx4 and the scx10 III a good spanking, or at least thats what It looks like mate
hi, friend. between this model and the enduro element eco Enduro Ecto 4WD Trail Truck 1:10 RTR, black which model is the best car? thank you
Its great fiture. Best Value for money 👍
LOL, in Canada this thing costs TRX4 money... love the body
Que tal mi amigo ....!!se están poniendo las pilas los de RGT ya que cuenta con una buena gama de crawlers muy capaces como este modelo con dig, 2 velocidades ejes de portal etc, etc, un 10 su diseño retro muy power wagon...y claro es masivo.....!!!!!saludos desde México
I just got a Trx 4 high trail but I really like the looks of this where did you get it from
The high trail comes in some nice colours 👌
@@TomleyRC I just got the black 1 but once the colored body’s are for sale separately I want to get the copper 1 for shelf
I had to order it to be able to get 1 because my local hobby shop got the first batch and sold out that same day so mine came from the 2nd batch I’m going to put a 3300kv axe combo in it and already have all brass an metal axle housings on it
dayum saving up now. really fell in loce with the green one. pretty much the same colour i wouldve painted a custom body in
Pretty sick rig. I don't understand why the winch is in the back but it's cool that it comes with one
Because we all know its our friends who always get stuck and need a winch from us!
I mean, who isn’t a fan of MORR. Good color choice
Exactly!
Which would you recomend between this and the ftx outback tracker? I cant decide which i want
Good question. The Tracker is very much like the TRX4, both very capable and I guess it would be down to personal choice
Pretty sweet rig!!!!!
Tow truck Olympics are coming soon.. If I was to get a new RC This would be in my top 5 .. another nice review.. 👌
Will there be any brass available for this thing? Just curious cause I never thought of trying a rgt but I might now
I think the Brass for the Rescuer will fit the portals as they look the same. But RGT usually bring out optional parts
@@TomleyRC ahh cool and thankyou
RGT keep delivering. Traxxas fans just salty about having to pay extra for stuff that should be included. Looks like brass bits from the LandCruiser should fit portals/diffs.
What did you take the photo on
Great looking rig! You should look into what yikong is bringing out now with there 1/8 and 1/10 crawlers. That and the new hobbywing fusion se aswell 👌
Glad i!I'm not the only 1 that instantly think #worldslargestwrecker and Matt's team. Nearly time for it's big proper debut.ThankQ.TkEZ
Nice one, good vid. I was looking for a crawler.
another great vid from the king 👍
UK king of RC that is 😂
U should have a collab with the big King.. Aaron Bidochka (RCSPARKS) 🎉👑
The fms atlas is amazing!
Tomley RC you should review the LAEGENDARY GRANDO I got one it’s awesome
Thank you for the good information, I will watch the video well ~^^
😮 yes a driver is a must always!! But theres no working brake lights 😢😢
There nice trucks, I had an crusher. Still better off building a scx10ii builders kit though.
Very nice truck!
Put some 2.2 Mudslingers on it !!
Love the Ref at MORR :)

That is really nice and probably about the right price point, what's your thinking ? great video as always , many thanks
Another quality video my friend 👌🏻 , although it's not helped my indecisive ass as its another one to my list that I really like 🤣.
Great vid tomley surprised you didn't have the AT6 aliexpress is offering 😀 👌
Even tho I cannot afford this right now it’s still good value in my opinion
I have an off topic question Tomley what are the dimensions and wheel base of the max smasher body? Thank you.
What you should have put In the gears is marine grease and packed the bearings with it as well
Sharp looking truck
Wow! So cheap!.. $500 to buy plus $495 shipping without the taxes from Aliexpress. 😆 Thanks for the review tho m8. 👍
$536 after “fees?” And shipping. Cool truck but far from cheap for a brand that isn’t supported by any local hobby shops.

It's nice,like it 😀👍👍
With Hobbywing doing the V2 of the 1080 hopefully we will start seeing the V1 in some RTR's
oh yes can't wait to see if anyone does the wrecker build.... looks tidy truck bud 👍
See if I can get Headley to get some of these in the shop..looks a good truck for the money..👍
