    I like the back suspenion style and i like the steering link in the front that is above the axle so you will not hang up in obstacles. The car has flex , i can't understand why people may don't like this style of suspension. This car has settings that other more expensive don't have. Don't complain guys , the model is very nice balanced. Front motor position also , what else do you want in this price . There are some other crawlers that cost a bit more than 400 dollars and they don't have the steering link above the axle and tbey don't have this style of suspention. It's fine model i like it for real.

    Regarding branding, FTX is a brand owned by CMl Distribution in the UK, most of their car range comes from HSP and River Hobby, who will rebrand their products with your own name if you buy enough of them. The RGT brand is owned by High Speed Hobby Co, who sell most of their budget cars under their HSP brand. This crawler is manufactured by HSP, HSP then use the RGT brand to sell their crawlers separate from their main brands.

    Pretty decent little rig there! I never understood why they make the turn signals blink. NO one ever uses their turn signals like that when they are crawling. It would be cool if they had a mode where all the lights just stayed ON and another so turn signals worked when you were stopped or going slow with wheels turned. Would be cool for realism and role playing!

    • @TomleyRC

      Yeah, the turn signals can be quite annoying... not very scale really

  • @PhilipBallGarry

    Nice truck, excellent review 👍
    GT85 is my goto for the motorbike too. The decent nozzle produces a fine mist so it's easier to apply than ACF50. It's also a fraction of the price. It's compatible with plastics and rubber. The ptfe in it helps moisture dispersion too. Just be careful not to get it on brake discs as I did. First ride after winter and on first brake application I nearly went straight on at a junction 😂. That wss fun. Character building as they say 😉😂
