where I get my parts cars www.westernval... join our Facebook group suicidal rc my Facebook page 009 rc adventures ftx mauler vs ftx ravine through a quick gate trail. you vote who won!
i guess the ravine won bc its a lot more mobile. i like the mauler more in terms of price/performance out of the box (ravine absolutely needs tyre upgrade before considering anything) but the turning circle is bad af
yes it probably did on this one, tbh they are both just as good as each other at different things but definitely agree the ravine does need tyres so that puts it at mauler price . don't think I could choose one or the other but ravine with some simple mods and it's rear steer is awesome, but so is the mauler 🤣 cheers 👍🐿
@@009ADVENTURES where i live the ravine is 140 bucks and the mauler is 240 bucks. a good set of tyres for the ravine can cost 80 bucks so yes, you are quite close with your opinion, however the samr goes for the mauler. its stock tyres arent as bad as the ravines, but still a weakpoint. im a fan of the ravine as a beginner vehicle and its ability to eat up a ridiculous amount of punishment makes it a great toy for children and adults alike (i own 4 of them). im still undecided if i really need a mauler when i got 2 TRX4 allready, but the mauler could easily use the same wheels i allready have on the ravines.
I like Mauler more.....it has a low cg and I just love the platform I have a Rock Hammer same thing made into a belly dragger, and its a very modifiable platform. Ravine crawls well for sure. The 4 wheel steer looks nice!!! Great job!!! Have great holidays!!!
That's not an easy thing to judge Marc,as each rig had certain advantages over the other, though from a cost point of view, the Ravine wins it. Having said that, the Mauler has the extra power & wheel speed that the Ravine just doesn't have. From a points view,the Ravine won, with one post hit,vs the Mauler with one post hit and a hand of God.
yes David I couldn't choose which was best tbh, they both have things they are better at but both do OK. I love them both but if we are going on price the ravine takes the bonus points 😃👍🐿
these are both great, what the ravine lacks in weight and power it makes up for with the rear steer and tbh there isn't much in the two. I will say the mauler is more upgradable and better quality
@009ADVENTURES awesome! You should have said this in the video! There's nothing worse than someone having the tools to compare and then not having the balls to make a conclusion or opinion. Bravo! Sir and thanks for the insight!
