Overview
A rocky backyard trail is the setting for this small-scale six-wheel-drive flatbed, with portal axles, oil-filled shocks, an aluminum anodized chassis and a working winch with steel hook. LED lights and an ABS body finish the scale look.
Scale detail and gear shifting from the radio are the reason to choose it, and the updated ESC lets you add a brushless system later. The limitations are paperwork: the listing mixes age data and never says whether a charger comes with the battery.
Who it's for
RC fans who like scale trucks, rock courses and tinkering with electronics. Beginners who want a simple package with everything confirmed should read the box contents first.
Pros and cons
- Working winch with steel hook
- Two-speed shifting from the transmitter
- Metal gear steering servo
- Full LED light system
- Brushed motor only in the box
- Charger not confirmed
- Age fields conflict
- Included field lists only the remote
Performance notes
Six-wheel drive, portal axles and a two-speed transmission give crawl torque for climbing, while oil-filled shocks and an anti-roll bar steady the chassis over rocks. The brushed motor sets the power level until a brushless system is added. The FlySky radio controls the winch, lights and gears.
