1 / 2
Our Verdict
A trail truck that prioritizes realism over pure climbing. The IFS front suspension gives it driving dynamics that solid-axle crawlers can't match on smoother trails, but it limits rock crawling ability. Beautiful scale body, reasonable price, and a steered rear axle option for tight spots.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- +Beautiful scale body with great detail
- +IFS front suspension for unique driving dynamics
- +Good value for a scale trail truck
- +Steered rear axle option for tight maneuvering
Cons

- -Smaller aftermarket than Axial or Traxxas crawlers
- -Not competitive in organized crawling events
