I though the same thing when clicking the video, but seeing the detail and the metal pinion ring gear had me thinking $400 is pretty cheap for what you actually get here.
125 won't even get u a cheap 1 24th scale crawler . . This hobby is not cheap if anyone wants a cheap hobby look else where. . And it's so addicting that you won't even care about the price, and 400 will start looking cheap once u spend 2k on a crawler, lol
Can I just say I can see a Tomley Trails meet up event coming on…. That trail looks amazing and I’d be happy to to walk up there with a pack lunch for a days walking, talking and crawling….. Great trail with a great truck…….
I bought a TRX4 Landie Summer of 2019. Whilst I like the functionality, I'd have preferred clear windows on the body and working lights. And I don't intend to splash out £150 on another body with clear windows and another £100 on a light set. This truck looks really nice.
Hi Phil just wanted to say your videos are amazing I have just ordered an Ftx stinger and wanted to watch some videos on it. Well your video is certainly the best one about it and it is very detailed and helpful thanks!
I thought the crawler performed really well. It did almost everything you asked it to. It's a great choice for people who want to take it for walk and do some crawling and it looks good. That was a beautiful spot for your filming.
LMAO! Subtitles are spelling Bushido as Bido, therefore rejecting "ush", which, as we all know is a Hungarian affectionate suffix. OMG! Loved that "scrape through" trail section! And I wish you a happy bidet for the other day.
The best part about that crawler, apart from the apparently good performance, is the body. Just because it is something different than a jeep or land rover lol How's the run time with the 2000mah battery? The larger battery tray placement looks like it makes it more unstable. Great camera placement! You could see how steep some places are compared to the top views.
Very cool little crawler! I loved the under car camera angle, btw. Reminded me of Rory Irish running Trailmater over the rocks in Moab 👍. Keep it comin 🙂
great scenery in today's video that's a cool little truck but I agree why the indicators on so many R.C.'s I live in SoCal most people don't use them on their real cars here ( especially Mercedes and BMW drivers )lol
Fantastic jeep indeed, Phil! 😃 Awesome ride and review! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊 BTW, I'm still waiting to see one of those with a bigger dc motor than a 550. 😬
Nice one phil . I got the ftx paso for my daughter due to your video on it and its fantastic . I think this one might need adding to the fleet for my older daughter . Its a great looking truck no frills but capable .👍
Really impressed with this truck. Was looking at the longer wheelbase version for some time but will most likely pick this up. Something about the SWB trucks. Great review👍
Ftx/rgt are definitely improving that looks a nice bit of kit, abit random to have a flat rail chassis on a scale trail rig but it shows what we could expect for their future products and I approve 😅 I just hope they use this style of chassis on a more competitive crawler based rig (scx10pro ect competitor) 👊🏼😎🤙🏼💨💨
Great looking body! I've allways had a thing for RGTs/FTXs crawlers/trail trucks. Having a trail truck already I can't justify the money on another one. I want a varied RC collection. Great scenery there Phil! Looks like some areas here in northern Portugal. Do revisit there, trucks look super scale there! ❤
i wish the crawler controlers would either come with a resistive control on the steering wheel itself and or a way to remove the return to center spring. soooooo many do not know what they are missing till they remove that return to center feature from their sticks!!!!! so much more control and precision!
I haven't had an RC car since my Tamiya Sand Scorcher in 1981 but this crawler makes me want to get into this hobby again. I wouldn't be able to explain it to the missus though....
There are a lot of negative stereotypes about Chinese products but if you do your research there are some great products out there - RGT, FMS, Cross-RC, Traction Hobby, YiKong, etc.
Great location! Some of the scenery is so so scale, works perfectly with this truck, which I like very much 😊 Bushido possibly still wins it for me tho👌
I could be wrong, but I THINK those bars that go over the front wheel wells can lift up out of the side step and swing out to make it easier to get the body on and off. Again. I may be wrong... But I THINK that's how it works.
Nice video mate, RGT/FTX are really making some stunning rigs now, seems they proper turned the corner with the Fury 2.0 onwards, where did you film the rocks section looks like my area cow an calf at Ilkley
2in1 ESC/RX at that price 😬. Actually it looks better than most crawlers that use the generic Hobbywing 1040. I wonder if it's the Flysky unit as that is super smooth in the Element RC Sendero 12th scale truck
Just like anything technology trickles down we are lucky to be living with the current state of the RC world not so much new technology just improved & lower priced better quality RC’s
Tomley I think you need to do the FTX Gladius review that's the one truck I'm desperate to see on your channel b4 I buy one, plz could do a running review on it? 🙏🙏🙏
Love the look of this one was looking at it on ali but i think ill wait for ftx to get it as i dont want to pay import fees id say this is one of the best looking trucks to be released in a while its not the same old 313mm that we keep getting cheers tomley for the great videos its not easy to keep great content on yt
Wicked video Phil! This looks absolutely awesome. Say I perched one, do you think the body is available unpainted? I recon it'd look bumming good in black. 🤔
I have a couple of their older rc's. Fantastic crawlers. Only downside i haven't found a hard body that fits that wheelbase. These newer ones look pretty good to. Paid 85 US for mine 5 years ago lol
As an Australian I appreciate this crawler. Very much what a local 4wd would be. Only thing is that the side bash bars are supposed to sit out further to prevent damage. They simply don’t stick out enough. Could possibly fix it with a heat gun.
1/10th scale short course trucks are so much fun to race on the track with buddies. So much more fun than open-wheel trucks and buggies because you can bump and rub into each other without getting caught on the tires and flipping. It's my favorite type of RC racing. Congrats, bro!
