1/10 scale Vertex. The W stands for wide (has a wider stance) also comes with 2.2 tires. The standard 1/10 vertex has 1.9 tires a different body with bumper insert options. I WANT ONE! They both come in slider form also.

Just hopped on YouTube, a bunch of guys just dropped the review vids. I watched Exocaged's vid, I crack up watching him, he sure is an enthusiastic nut! 🤣
I love me some RC content, but for some reason I just can't do that channel.
I think it's just everything is "AW GuyS ThiS IS tHe mosT AMAZING thing I Have eVER SEEN!"
 
Performance wise I expect great things...I wish they had stayed true to the vertex 6 body...when it shrank they lost the extend cab, round front corners, and made it smaller. It's not as mean looking as the larger model....but it is Lime green in the w version...and that counts for a lot.

That guy was better in the beginning. He actually had informative content. Now its all about how much he can get you to spend on Vitavon
agreed. I remember he did a few actual "how-to" videos several years back when he was growing the channel. It's sad to see.
 
Admittedly, the axles in this truck interest me if they dont turn out to be junk. (Seem to be sloppy)... BUT the 3:1 portal reduction is NUTTY

If you paired them to say, a Stealth X or Axial 3 gear, it would be roughly 200:1 final drive ratio on an 87/14 spur/pinion combo 🤯

Is there a real world use case for that much reduction? I dunno, but the dumb part of my brain is curious 🤣

With how controllable the torque of brushless motors is, gear ratio is much less relevant.
