Hi Traxxas, it's O-V-E-R. $399 for a good servo, good esc, 2 speed, front and rear locking diffs, front wheel drive, rear wheel drive, drag brake, lights, light bar, removable cab and with 10 channels. All of those things are easily worth $300.
Ima agree i got a trx4 79 bronco i call frank you can view him on my channel but ive been running him since april 2018 hes due for early retirement at this rate.
Not even slightly over, Traxxas will still sell more TRX-4s. If FMS sales become a concern, Traxxas can lower their prices. The brand is too big and too smart to be outdone simply by a brand offering a lower price on a copycat product.
FMS has become my favorite R/C brand with their innovative designs and great value. I knew they're going to come up with something like this that would shock everyone just like what the TRX4 did five years ago.
@manuelpiston I mean. Not really. All cars have sort of been lame since about 2001. Maybe a 1999 4Runner body would be cool. But I mean. No. Expeditions are lame.
Awesome review rc brother, FMS continues to impress, all vehicles can use upgrades even the 700 dollar vehicles need upgrades. The fact that it already comes with so many nice options makes it a great purchase, can't wait to add it to my collection 🙏✝️☮️
Your enthusiasm is infectious Francis!! Can see why you're excited about this rig. For the price that's unbeatable. Only thing missing is a winch. With all the driving modes, High/low speed, Portals, Contra rotating driveshafts (that's rare for an RTR) decent servo, lights and a nice polycarbonate body... I love the drag brake on the fly... OMG that's awesome!!!! Yeah I'm sold. My heavily modified SCX-10 doesn't have all those features but damn it cost a pretty penny to setup.
Thank you for your very comprehensive review ,awesome looking truck at a very good price .Gave you a subscription🤗. Greetings from an Irishman living in Latvia.... Harry 🇮🇪
Great review. This seems like a great truck to have. Mines gonna be here saturday. The Crawlers I have now will be eyeing what I got. It's different and I think it's good to have options.
That is a gorgeous truck and an impressive list of options. I'm not big into crawling and don't have a ton of room in the collection but I'll likely buy this just to look at. I picked up a TRX6 G63 last year on impulse that I've been looking for a reason to get rid of. I think you just gave me one.
I've been waiting for this since it got leaked by Harley designs and I will say FMS did not disappoint, and that price is great, now if my real truck would stop breaking so I could afford one that would be great.
If they get a 79 Ford I’ll be getting one, the features on this thing are cool. I got to many RC’s to buy every cool one that comes out ( I can’t believe I just said that lol) Thanks Francis for the informative videos you put out I enjoy them
It is almost out of stock for the first production round so get it asap if you're thinking about it. Shipping is FREE btw www.fmshobby.com/products/fms-1-10-fcx10-chevrolet-k5-blazer-rs?ref=rcreview
Great truck, really nice looking. If it had straight axles, I might have grabbed one. Never did see a blazer with portal axles. Love the optional rear 2WD setup.
Those that twin stick their 4x4 can do front wheel drive in some vehicles, my Jeep YJ has a Dana 300 that is twin sticked and it can drive on fronts only if need be such as snapping a rear axle or digging etc.
Eat that Traxxas! I love Traxxas but their prices suck! They are proud of their products for some reason I’m selling one of my TRX4s to get one of these!!!!
i bought one earlier today. cant wait for it to get here. do you know if you can remove the tint from the windshield? i want to put a FPV camera in the cab
I just ordered the Blazer online. I'm new to RC vehicles. What is the best battery to purchase for this rig? One that will fill the battery compartment...
was hoping to hear about what size servo could fit in it. how about motor and gearing? links? all the standard stuff we'd look at to upgrade. a deep dive into that because the weaknesses are fairly dry; need equal pros and cons. frankly, over engineered for crawlers. too expensive for kids. too many gimmicks and its going to hard to work on when one servo goes bad.
Wow FMS! After your video I bought the Unimog With oil dampers, modified in the look and made a nice video into Dolomites. I have to say that FMS surprises you with quality both in materials, and project The Unimog is ready to receive more things than expected, (LED housings). This one has my favorite body and I never bought the Traxxas one because the price here in Italy too high. I'm thinking over! Ciao and happy 100.000
Nice video. I like to install an engine simulator on my fms fcx10 k5, but I could not find out the throttle line. Could you help me with that? Thanks a lot.
@@RCReviewChannel there's nothing wrong with it technically, but most 1:10 bodies are meant for 200mm wide bodies and 313mm wheel bases. That rules out using a ton of aftermarket bodies on this platform right out of the gate unless you want the wheels to stock out 25mm on each side. The extra 10mm in length isn't a huge deal though.
Fuckin A! MOA, lights, dig, selectable lockers, 2 speed trans, selectable drive config, and mag con lights with swiotch on remote?! Dayum!!! Wanna trade for my trx 4? I see a front axle swap on my trx, pls see if its compat w/trx. Another great video
I like it! But do they have to use yet another American body! The blazzer has been done so many times now it’s so boring. A Nissan patrol or something would be awesome!
