This is the best deal in 1/18th scale by far! However, I feel like if you’re like me and love to customize the crap out of rc vehicles then you’re not making the wrong move buying wbu SCX24 even right now. The amount of upgrades and components you can get is half the fun! But if you’re looking for a very capable and comp ready rig, then here you go guys.
Furitek just put the othe mini and micro RC companies on notice. Brushless RTR, aluminum chassis, and all aluminum oil filled shocks under $200!?!? Can't wait to get mine and do a review on my channel. Another great review.
Hi sir, I know this is off topic and hope you don’t mind. Do you have an easy way how to lock the trasmission of max smasher for high speed only, I want to remove the servo selector and leave it on high speed gear only. Thank you.
Great vid Adam, the intro rocks 👍🏻😃 very informative review and of course it is a game changer. The big brands will have to react as soon as a bigger player follows the step Furitek just took.
...but of course the price is awesome, upgrading a SCX24 with a chassis like that, better servo, portal axles, brushless motor and esc would cost about three times the price of this 500, 700 easily.
Such a beautiful rig! Definitely a lot of bang for your buck! I'm all about the red but I'm not gonna lie. When I order one I'm gonna be torn between that one and the black with flames as well! Great video as always!
nice rig for sure! Awesome video brother! I like the all in one radio system with brushless power! I want this electronics in my Jlu now! Haha Haha. I will definitely be getting the blue with flames! awesome Awesome! Thanks for sharing brother!
Oh boy! Watershed moment right after I purchased the CR-18 EVO! Ugh. It’s every add on that you could ask for. All wrapped up and ready 2 go! Did it come wrapped in a bow too?
I would love to buy one of these but I can't find a mainland European supplier. Axial and Traxxas are everywhere but none of this brand unfortunately...I will keep looking for a supplier. Thank you for your review of this awesome truck 👍...Harry
I noticed that the truck has T Hunter wheels and tires and that's not a bad thing as I like them , I bought a few sets for future projects and used some on my scx24 6x6 Meus build , using golf lead tape for wheel weights they are great , I think the axles are from the T Hunter also again not a bad thing as I've not had any problems with my T Hunter , so for the price it's good so I mentioned it to my lovely wife and she immediately said would you like it from the kids for your up and coming 58th birthday , guess what I said lol , I'm looking forward to unboxing it on my birthday of course , great video your truck looks great and looks to drive very well , mine will probably be in bits on day one , does your little boy like it , stay safe mate 🇬🇧
Ok, I have to admit that I was a bit embarrassed for wanting one but maybe Sandy Claws will bring one in December or I'll get one for my 58th in January... 🤞 I was trying to figure out how I could make it about the grand sons! 🤔
Awesome truck, sweet price, like you said lower it, with better wheels and tires. It's a beast, the other manufacturers gonna have to do some soul searching. 😮
I love most of it! The bed is funkier than the disco Era. I'm unsure on the 1.2" wheels but I have a feeling we are about to see lots of new 1.2" tire offerings. I am definitely going to grab one of these. Kinda wishing I had got this and waited on the new hightrail trx4m.
And here is Adam... the new spokesman for furitek ! Welcome to the show... your monologs for this new rig are fantastic..furitek should be proud to have you introducing their new rig!
Placed my pre-order on Amain. Hopefully it's better than the overpriced Cayman 6x6 I bought that looks great on the surface, but has a lot of QA issues.
I'm new to the hobby and want to start out with something really decent like this or the hobby plus c r 18. In your opinion for general crawling and just having fun which would you pick
Adam, Hello; I know that this message is kinda late. I just found your channel. My question is I have an scx 24 Wrangler JL and have swapped out the servo. I still have issues with the front travel up and down. I trimmed the mounts and installed e max smaller servo. Do you have any suggestions. Thank you Dave Chatelle Have a nice day
Thanks again Adam, this one is gonna be perfect for the grandchildren!! Out of the box performance was a surprise for sure! Wish it still had the two speed transmission, but that can be changed. Overall, great RTR crawler. AS ALWAYS GREAT VIDEO AND KEEP THEM COMING!!
I think this is a real Gamechanger... I own the Harvester Evo with SOA and the HobbyPlus Shocks is 199€ as well. And that harvester is a killer but by far away from that. Can't wait to see it with some better tires. That is the only limit I can see to this truck.... Great content again... thx for that video
1:31 slightly off topic but thats the reason why i think more flex is better, situations like that were the result of trying shorter shocks like you did on your recent cheat code build. or the warthog.
@CapeCrawlers I'm not sure if you've had a chance to work with the Cayman Pro, but if you have, between that and the FX118, which one would you say is the better bang-for-buck?
I feel like I know the answer already, but would you say this performs better out of the box than any of your “buy it and add a 100 dollars of upgrades” builds? Seems like with wheels, tires, and a little brass you’d have a real beast.
The budget gladiator or budget trx4m would be as good or better than this I feel. But what really holds the fury wagon back is the tires. After a wheel and tire swap it is exponentially better
hey Adam, If i buy the New Furitek RTR that comes with Furitek controller, Can I buy a furitek Ultimate esc and use the same furitek controller to drive my gladiator with the ultimate esc? Just wondering because id like to have a furitek controller to use with my gladiator that has a fried esc. Thanks :-)
Have you considered making RC door/window decals for Cape Crawlers? I think you could make some fun side money with those, as people would want to rock your logo on their vehicles.
I've been slowly developing sticker sheets. I'm a perfectionist and it has been taking forever to do so. I may just outsource it to a sticker company to help me finalize them
@@CapeCrawlers If I may suggest, I'd go ahead and outsource to a sticker company. Because the stickers you make in 6 months will be based on learnings you get from the initial batch and feedback from just having product out there. I've run a few startups and the most important thing you could do right now is let your product make contact with customers so you can learn what they like, and then iterate on it for the next run. For me, my current product looks almost nothing like my initial product. If I had waited to try to make it perfect from the beginning, I wouldn't have learned what people actually wanted. Best of luck, I'm always happy to chat about this stuff.
Need new body. Interested to see what ppl will do with it. Wagon is stale. Loud. Wonder if cutting out the windows and putting grease in evey gear would reduce it. Nothing like enjoying the birds and leaves restling in the wind and hearing gears and esc whining.
I've been curious also, I asked Matt at 2fm and he says this one should be slightly better due to the extra wheelbase. My gladiator scx24 is the longest and performs better than my highly modded scx24 c10. I'd say he's right. I absolutely love the cayman personally. However if this is rtr and 100$ less this fury wagon will be a better seller. What an amazing time to be into rc!
@@johnnyhotshoe1292 wheel base is only 5mm difference width and length, but you’re right as an rtr value for money this thing seems impossible to beat for anyone that already has a receiver+radio the cayman may make sense but I want to see them run the same courses
@@Bslatz I'm right there with you. In my opinion the cayman looks better. The cayman is fcx24 based and this thing cr18p. I have no experience with the cr18 platform but I have not heard anything bad. I 100% want to see the comparison also!
Is this a better bet over the FMS 1:18 LC80? On the fence with both. I like the 2 speed on the LC80 and would use as a mix of trail and crawling...but that brushless motor seems to be the business....so torn.
Nice, just need to remove springs on the shocks to lower it and add front brass wheel weights…probably need to reposition the shock holes on lower positions to give it lcg look

right-on bro 💯

I never thought of $199.99 as "under" $200. I guess it's close enough?
The platform looks great. I don't like the body though I wonder how hard it would be to get an scx or trx4m hightail body on it.
The body is okay, but too high, and well maybe too bulky…
The rtr are getting so good out of the box , impressive. Nice to have something you don’t have to upgrade the hell out of right away, great video 👍
Another great Video! Thank you!I preorderd mine-Im so exited!!! Greets from Germany!!!
Axial is in big trouble with this one
Huge trouble. This thing is incredible.
@@oliverruelas1562 agree
I agree. Man an SCX24 pro brushless RTR would be lovely wouldn't it?
@@caseys_cozy_garage don't forget the 45 degree steering angle
And traxxas
Great review as always👍 Game changer for RTR's for sure!

Bro this video killed. The intro was so good. I think you nailed it. 👍🏼
Can you do a challenge to see if the new deadbolt of the mini hulk is more capable please
This makes the other offerings look weak. You couldn't build that truck for what they are selling it for.
...but of course the price is awesome, upgrading a SCX24 with a chassis like that, better servo, portal axles, brushless motor and esc would cost about three times the price of this 500, 700 easily.

I love the black. I wanted that one so bad 😂
Huge step up in performance! Medium small price increase.

Production models may come with a bow 😂
A Furitek rig under $200 ?
Maybe it's time to buy my first Furitek, now i can afford it.😉
Thank you for this info.
Are you going to be keeping this and modding it? Like the top 5 mods you did with the scx24?
I would love to buy one of these but I can't find a mainland European supplier. Axial and Traxxas are everywhere but none of this brand unfortunately...I will keep looking for a supplier. Thank you for your review of this awesome truck 👍...Harry

1yr later I got one for $100 shipped. Sometimes it's good to wait 😅
I'm ordering one for sure. And I have to say I've seen 2 other reviews for it and yours is by far the best and most informative
@CapeCrawlers I concur, great video Adam!
I love most of it! The bed is funkier than the disco Era. I'm unsure on the 1.2" wheels but I have a feeling we are about to see lots of new 1.2" tire offerings. I am definitely going to grab one of these. Kinda wishing I had got this and waited on the new hightrail trx4m.
That was cool , would like see it next to scx24 .
It is the best rtr indeed, best value! Upgraded all stock “RTR” from gears and everything…..👌
And here is Adam... the new spokesman for furitek ! Welcome to the show... your monologs for this new rig are fantastic..furitek should be proud to have you introducing their new rig!
reallly like it buti think the body looks a bit toyish, that new insides are sweet. Hands down coolest video you have done yet!!
Glad you liked the video! I hope we get different body choices
I was about to order it then they hit me the 39.99 shipping. Sorry great truck but I can't afford to pay that kind of shipping rate.
That’s crazy man. You can only get it online and it doesn’t matter where you live so it’s always gonna be $240 the 200 is just not real
I ordered from Furitek for 185 after a coupon and free shipping.
@@Iskremfrpupy what coupon and how did u get free shipping?
@@Iskremfrpupy I did the same thing. I got my discount code from "the RC Shop"
That makes me want one ! I hope axial ups their game as well !
Another solid review. I pre ordered one! 😊
That truck is impressive out of the box.
Wish they could sell the cayman for this price
Thats a great price!
on sale for 160 on directrc right now! Thinking about getting this also even though i just bought my first crawler the fcx18
120 rn if you didn’t order it 2 months ago
$99.99 now
We had the chance to get our hands on one and take it to Lake Powell. It does amazing on the slick rock of Southern Utah. Two words... GAME CHANGER!
Crap, now I have to buy another one :)
Tarantula forsale here. Lol 😂
Who would've thought that Furitek would come out with their own rig! Wow!
Im seeimg over 300+$ where can you find this for 200?
Furitek directly or Amain: www.amainhobbies.com/furitek-fx118-fury-wagon-1-18-rtr-brushless-rock-crawler-red-ftk-fur-2414/p1519034

Adam,
Hello; I know that this message is kinda late.
I just found your channel.
My question is I have an scx 24 Wrangler JL and have swapped out the servo.
I still have issues with the front travel up and down.
I trimmed the mounts and installed e max smaller servo.
Do you have any suggestions.
Thank you
Dave Chatelle
Have a nice day
Is it possible to put scx24 upgrades on it?
It would be challenging. This uses bigger hardware so swapping would be tough
Thanks again Adam, this one is gonna be perfect for the grandchildren!! Out of the box performance was a surprise for sure! Wish it still had the two speed transmission, but that can be changed. Overall, great RTR crawler. AS ALWAYS GREAT VIDEO AND KEEP THEM COMING!!
Brass wheels or brass rings
As long as Furytek leaves hard bodys off there trucks they will smoke the compitition. Im hooked on mine! The hook is in deep too!
I think this is a real Gamechanger... I own the Harvester Evo with SOA and the HobbyPlus Shocks is 199€ as well. And that harvester is a killer but by far away from that. Can't wait to see it with some better tires. That is the only limit I can see to this truck....
Great content again... thx for that video
Adam you where rite! this RTR is a game changer for price point, thanks for the great video as usual! I cant wait to see what you do with it man!!! 🙂
Heck yeah that was awesome up Hells gate yeah I’m liking this rig dang it 👍👍😎
Was getting ready to buy a trx4m…..preordering this now!
Hey Adam did you remove furitek link?
1:31 slightly off topic but thats the reason why i think more flex is better, situations like that were the result of trying shorter shocks like you did on your recent cheat code build. or the warthog.
I found the Hobby Plus upgrade shocks to be one of the best shocks for the SCX24.
Personally I'd rather buy something less and upgrade it to or past what this is but I like to tinker
That was nice up the excavator, Yep I’m here watching
I need to make more money! Lol Great video!! Now I may have to get 2 Game changer for sure.
Can you do a challenge to see if the new deadbolt of the mini hulk is more capable please
I was very hesitant on the red based on the ads, so I pre-ordered a red and a black one. Now to wait on September 25
The production quality of this one was top notch! Thanks for another great video
Could we have a wheel and tire and tune up video. I just want to see it’s full potential
Is this awsome car coming to Europe?
I want to have it!!!
Amazing video as always :)
Definitely going to have to park this next to my Cayman.
61 degrees is pretty darn impressive. Very nice chassis too.
@CapeCrawlers I'm not sure if you've had a chance to work with the Cayman Pro, but if you have, between that and the FX118, which one would you say is the better bang-for-buck?
I was wondering the same thing. I own a Cayman pro and it's a good crawler.
It puts the lotion on the skin....🎈 what's the run time??
Amazing video! Do you know if the hardware is standard 1.5mm? Or is it the smaller bit size like the scx24?
It’s 1.5mm thankfully
I feel like I know the answer already, but would you say this performs better out of the box than any of your “buy it and add a 100 dollars of upgrades” builds? Seems like with wheels, tires, and a little brass you’d have a real beast.
The budget gladiator or budget trx4m would be as good or better than this I feel. But what really holds the fury wagon back is the tires. After a wheel and tire swap it is exponentially better
I wanna order one but can't afford to right now..
If it comes with hobby plus axles it's a problem, my rock van is using FMS Axles 👏
Yes to the H3 axles
Would it be easy to replace the body with the Unimog Cr18p body? That would look sick
If you drilled holes in the unimog hood and used the posts I think it would be pretty simple
What size hubs for wheels and tires
Will rockvan body fit?
Got the red one :)
You convinced me.
I preordered mine today
Just ordered one. That looks awesome
What the run time on the battery?
Nice... sets the bar very high 😊
hey Adam, If i buy the New Furitek RTR that comes with Furitek controller, Can I buy a furitek Ultimate esc and use the same furitek controller to drive my gladiator with the ultimate esc? Just wondering because id like to have a furitek controller to use with my gladiator that has a fried esc. Thanks :-)
The esc and receiver are separate in this kit. So no, you would need to buy another receiver
@@keldonator Thank you 🙂
So what axles are they? Also since it's the lizard Pro can you run 3s
Yes to 3S. Axles are Hobby Plus CR18P axles
pre ordered it. which tires n hubs fit? looking for recommendations
7mm hex so your typical scx24 or fcx24 wheels will fit it. I fit 64mm tires with no issues

Agreed! Going to mess around with some light mods this weekend
It didn't do any better than the High Trail. Do head to head with the Unimog!
The high trail stunned me with how good it did!
Need new body. Interested to see what ppl will do with it. Wagon is stale.
Loud. Wonder if cutting out the windows and putting grease in evey gear would reduce it. Nothing like enjoying the birds and leaves restling in the wind and hearing gears and esc whining.
Lots of noise for sure. I’m going to try greasing the gears this weekend to see if that helps
I'm planning to 3D print a Unimog body.
That's a must get!!
