      Yup! My mind was blown toggling through the screens and seeing both EPA and EXP options.

  • @donaldsneffe
    @donaldsneffe ปีที่แล้ว +2

    This is the Turbo Racing P52 radio, available for years. Should bind with your 1/6 Willys Jeep, FMS Atlas 6x6, RocHobby Katana, Hobby Plus CR-18 (not CR-18p!), CR-24, RGT 1/24, and many more ( those are sold under many different names).

  • @gm3353
    @gm3353 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    feel like this is a great buy. add servos and get a brushless combo, slap on some wheels/tires and it's going to be awesome. already great to look at glad you reviewed the gray one.

    • @Mark-qv4bn

  • @sambushee9296
    @sambushee9296 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Why does nobody ever say the cost of any kits? Excellent reviews from all the TH-cam channels but nobody ever says the price. That's the most important part of any rc really.

    • @rcdriver
      @rcdriver  ปีที่แล้ว

      Unfortunately we typically don’t get the prices ahead of time. Manufacturers sometimes change the price at the last second. I always have it in the video description as soon as I find out what it is.

    So how is this the best RTR trail crawler just like how Amain hobbies adores it?
    For a guy like me who's only had TRX-4 Defender and Gen 8 Axe as trail crawler RCs I don't how it would be like to have this Vanquish. I'm not an RC snob but I appreciate very high quality products.
    All I know is that the TRX-4 is the best crawler I've owned, I've never owned Axial SCX10s, Vanquish or other brands aside from Redcat so I'm naive...so people enlighten me I'm open to what you will say about Vanquish. Thanks.

  • @Mr.NiceGuy80

    With 2 cheap servos and a can of plastidip, you can have a waterproof 4 channel, FWD, RWD, 4WD truck with a selectable overdrive. I had an opperational VFD Twin my Kit version for 40 dollars total.
