[NITEMARE]

I gont have specific specs on them but I dont like the fact that theyre 2wd only.

 

[ToFast2Drive]

there is a mod coming out to make it 4X4 that much i do know

 

[vbgagnon]

search 1/6 scales here. I know of at least one active member that has a 1/6 beatle

XTM is coming out with one. At least the parts should be easier to get than the FG ones.

I have the FG Monster Beetle. I love it. Very easy to start, no hassles with nitro. Breaks once in a while, but worth every penny. Parts are a hassle right now, but its getting much better with availability.

Where do you get parts and mods?
As far as i know the beetle is next on my list, been looking at them for awhile.

You can't put 4wd on the MT-5(mmonster truck) because of the front 8 shocks.

Some times parts are easy to get other times they can take a while. If the US distribution channel does not have them sitting we have to wait for them to come from Germany and they will not just ship one of an item

What are the weak spots Rush? You have one, I know you've run it hard... what have you busted?

I've watched a lot of european vids of guys getting 6-8 feet of air under them and tumbling away. Normally, they just break an arm, but that's if it lands just right. Otherwise it appears to be pretty tough.

Beason take your pick,I got a 3 wheel,a barbie jeep,and some odd 4x4,all 3 should let you sit on them.

These beasts are awesome the ease of playing with them is one of the main reasons i got mine prime the carb pull the cord and away you go for about 45mins can't go do that with a nitro, dont get me wrong i still love the smell of nitro but these are just to much fun and go just about anywhere. The weakest point of the whole system is the rear upper a arms and the body posts other than that these things are extremely durable.

i will post the add from FG that say there is a 4X4 mod Coming out for the FG BIGFOOT 1:6 SCALE GAS RC TRUCK
