I got one of these earlier this year when FMS had a deal where you buy this one and get a 18th scale truck for free. I got the yellow Toyota as the free truck.
@@DoURC i like it. it definitely needs some upgrades. i have the orange body. all i have done so far to mine is put a sticker on the door! lol. i want to do some upgrades as well. i don't like the battery tray. battery options are less. the ones i have wont fit in so i had to rig them up. but i want to upgrade my Axial CJ7 first. so this one is going to be stock for a while. i am running out of money! lol
@travelinwithTODD I know that feeling, this hobby can be expensive can't it! 🤣😬 Yeah stock battery tray is probably the most annoying part about the whole rig. I normally like running bug 3S battery packs, but there's only enough space for tiny packs! May see about making something cool for the rear bed to put the battery in. 👍 Very jealous of your CJ7 👍😎
The Atlas was my first 1/10 crawler. its a real trooper, I have abused this thing so much, its been underwater a number if times and it took a year before the stock receiver finally failed. It now runs a dumbo and hobbywing fusion se 1200, with steel beads and predator hyraxes. it rock crawls pretty well with sticky tires.
Ah excellent, good to know it's stood up to plenty of abuse. I think the bigger FMS rigs are made really well. I've been amazed how much of a beating my FJ40 has taken. 👍
I love the blue one. One day I`ll get one. I`ve just purchased an EVO PRO as an entry level platform. I think this would be a good trail truck with a lot of potential. A gateway drug for accessories.
I think I have just seen my first 1/10 truck . Im into the smaller scales but want something bigger for the odd run in the forest .Thank you for sharing....Harry
It’s unfortunate about the tires because, I think they look awesome! Do you think the tire compound is too firm? Nice looking truck, I love how the yellow contrasts with the surroundings in a lot of your shots.
Yeah, I mean they're not bad, just not great. Maybe softer foams would help, but tbh I'll just change them. 👍 Thanks, it was getting dark so lighting wasn't the best and my camera doesn't like low light. 👍
@DrewDoesRcEveryDay Yeah I think it's a good rig with potential. I love my FMS FJ40 and it's basically the same chassis with a different body. For $149 it's an absolute steal. 👍

Nice deal!
Ah cool, what do you think of it? I'm looking forward to modifying it and turning it into a beast of a mud truck. 👍😁

Yeah it's a nice truck. Definitely got potential. 👍
The Evo Pro is excellent, especially if you got the brushless version. 👍
@@DoURC I didn`t. I got the brushed one. I`m on a budget. I`ll run it stock and upgrade parts as necessary. Still awesome as is.
Imagine in scale how big these objects are this truck did amazing things love it thumbs up
Thanks very much 👍
It's a really nice rig, with a few simple upgrades I reckon it's going to be great. 👍

Perhaps you also might check the R1001 Wilderness Beluga. Good luck.
Excellent, hope you enjoy it if you get one. I think it's a great looking truck and definitely has potential. 👍
Looks like alot of fun in the mud , that truck looks amazing 👍
I do love me some mudding! 🤣😁
Nice one for a price that wont empty your piggybank and you have some left for upgrades. Huge congratz to 50000 subscribers.
Yeah it's a decent truck for the money. I think it looks great and looking forward to modifying it. 👍
Thanks very much 👍😁
50k Subs congrats 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks very much 👍😁
Nice to have the water proofed electronics! No need for bridges!
🤣🤣🤣 Exactly, just send it.
Although the receiver isn't waterproof, but oh well! 🤣😬

@@DoURC but it says waterproof on the receiver
@@minato2op352 I can't remember now tbh. But either way, they don't last forever. Better to have them in a sealed box or latex balloon. 👍
Would be cool to see a build series on this
I do have some big plans for it, just trying to work out how to pull them off. 🤫😁
Nice power wagon...
I really like it. 👍😎
I really like it. 👍😎
I really like it. 👍😎
I was wondering, are you planning to get the trx-4mt anytime soon i think you would make some good content with all the mud you’re available too
I'm on the fence with it tbh, plus it's over £200 in the UK for basically a modified TRX4M!

Nice 💪👍
Thanks very much mate 👍😁
💥💥
👍😁
1/10 scale it is a Great Rig.
I really like it. I reckon big meaty tyres and brushless and it'll be a beast. 👍😁💪
@@DoURC That is going to be FUN.
@JamesDirtRC Definitely. 👍 I might try a 1800kv Fusion SE, see if that's got enough wheel speed for some mud flinging fun! 🤣😁👍
Your poor RCs lol mud and water plus mud and water. What's your after mud cleaning technique?
More mud and water! 🤣🤣🤣😁
@@DoURC lol yea exactly the same policy just maybe abit of gt85 after the run lol
It will be available for $149 on the 30th at 11pm 👀 Do you believe it’s worth picking up, only available for 3 minutes 😂
