I have not ran it yet, I don’t have any triple a’s to put in the transmitter.
The hex driver is like a bronze color and one is silver

I don't know that I'd use them for much but a set of Kyosho labeled tools would be fun to hang on a wall.
Are these branded too???

They are not. The handles are way too small to get any real use out of them.

So one question... Why are there still batteries in your tv remotes???
I hope it goes as good as it looks!

For real,
I’m going to pick up some more while I’m out today. Lots of chores to do before play time.

I would fashion them into shanks just because, you never know!

Just a wee longer than a deadbolt length scx24.

Definitely shorter wheelbase than the 1/18 T-Hunter

Oh hey, in case you were wondering where the 4th wheel was ?

Most people center tge wheel on 3 wheel vehicles. How'd the limb get amputated?

If anyone gets one of these feel free to post in this thread what you do/upgrade or experience with it.

I have yet to run it. While the battery charges let’s take a look!
Comparison to an FMS Portal front axle.

I mean… anything is possible. Looks like custom links to me dictated by different link and shock mount locations but, it’s nothing I’ve never done before

Pretty sure those are Hobby Plus portals, I will look at mine when I get home. Wait you have a T-Hunter, give them a look.

My son was driving it in the house and allegedly, the dog bit it.

TOTALLY PLAUSIBLE!!!! Happened to my homework ALL the time!!!

Hey I think you are on to something!

@Doom! you are right. This looks like a hobby plus straight axle.
The hobby Plus axle isn’t really similar to an FMS.

Gee wiz it is fast on 2nd gear. This is the only crawler I have that has a 2speed transmission.
I will have to break out the crawler course tomorrow. Right now, this thing seems like a bargain even at $150. 4WS, selectable steering modes, brushless outrunner that doesn't whine, plastic oil filled shocks.
I foresee the battery mounted in the back will be a flaw, so more weight up front will be needed, the battery itself is a unique super flat shape, and it only has a balance plug.
I need to get this thing out for a real test fire so I can report back.

Wow. Those are some cool features!!! Yeah, $150 sounds like a pretty good price. Now lets see if Furitek picks up on it. I'd email them and ask them if they plan on it. I am right now. In fact I am emailing www.helidirect.com and asking them why they aren't stocking UDI stuff yet, and tell them to get Furitek on it. They are Furitek USA.

I may just rob the Furitek Lizard from my scx24 and put into this...... The ESC on this seems great I just dont know if you can program things like a Furitek. To the bench!
