105mm and 108mm fit fine if you lower the shock mount to give it a little lift. I have 108s on mine. Injora Knockoff hyrax tires. It can climb better than I expected once I added the tires and some weights.
As impressive as the SCX6 is its almost too capable. You need more and more gnarly terrain just to challenge it. The FTX just looks more fun. Cool vid 👍
So my wife's been misleading me all these years - size does matter after all. Hey, Phil - I've been hoping that you might get around to having a look at the Funtek CR12, which is a sort of Team Associated CR12 clone, like a very high quality WPL or MN Models trail truck/crawler. It's around the same siza as this FTX, and I'd be interested to see you test it.
Oh… I think I saw your video on one.. a gift? I’ve been ill the last week.. been watching UA-cam on an off and trying to keep the family occupied. I will have to look in to it. As for Size, it what you do with it that counts 😅
@@TomleyRC Yes, I do have one which was a gift. It's like a very high quality version of our beloved Chinese 1:12 scale trucks. I'm sorry to hear that you were ill, especially over Christmas. Let's hope that the lurgy leaves you in peace this week!
It looks like you guys had a blast out there that day.. That was the same day you filmed the shots for the final testing with all the Hop up’s on the Big guy huh.
You know what, Tomley... The 6th scale is better... But not by that much! The little guy is great as well! 😃 Merry Christmas! And stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Ftx are getting better and better at what they're putting out. I would love to see an updated Mauler, and see if the issues with the stock one (steering and servo) would be better. The Paso looks great for the money, but that was indeed, a David v Goliath comparison. That scx6 is a monster!!
I know you mentioned it a few times in the video but we really do need to see this little FTX with some better wheels and tires fitted to it. It seems to have a lot of potential but the stock tires look terrible for any kind of serious terrain. Please revisit this little truck with some upgrades!
The ftx looks interesting but would maybe a little too small for me. Couldn't resist to compare it to my Gmade buffalo. I am not too heavy in crawlers and the decision for a Gmade wasn't easy 😅
FTX doing good, needs a little front wheel weight. a 390 motor geared for it is plenty capable, Doomsday bug and modded 12428 clone do really well clambering with cheap but very chunky 108 mm tires on them.
I love your videos, but how tf is this remotely fair. "Dang the big one made it over the giant obstacle the little one couldn't. Get the big one way better" they're not the same
Man, this was so fun to watch. I actually used the circle arrow and watched it again. Thank you.
Wonder if they'll make an SCX-1, which I imagine would just be a standard Jeep Wrangler with Electric power and a remote control.
Lmao
Never fancied a crawler before I saw this video. Looks fun.
I love your driving method uphill with the FTX... applying Jeremy Clarkson's POWERRRR policy with offroading.
Poooooowwwwwweeeerrrrrr 😅
Great video Phil, I would love to colab with you with my full modded Jimny. I'm sure I'm not that far from you 😉.
What a great place to take them. Cheers for the entertainment. 👍🏼
Gotta say you have some lovely crawling places around you!
Love the outback 3s looks and price too. Great vid ❤️
I find it's hard to find decent tires for the Jimny at 100mm/4in. Thinking of it turning it to comp truck. What do you think?

Still want the Ftx ! Love that blue... Its on the list
Very nice 🙏🥰
I see you managed to sneak into Tixover 😉 good place that is.
We had permission :)
How much do you honestly think that scx6 weighs with all the treal upgrades?

Yes, we got a few videos done. FTX DR8’s had a good bash as well
@@TomleyRC it was beautiful out that day. I just wanted to tromp in that mud lol
I've been wondering why you hadn't reviewed this one yet. Great job
Keep up the good work Phil.
What location is this, it looks cool?
More weight on the front wheels and it runs perfect . Nice little thing !
You know what, Tomley... The 6th scale is better... But not by that much! The little guy is great as well! 😃
Merry Christmas! And stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Great comparison Bro! Great trucks! Have a great weekend!

just check rgt 18100. its where ftx take their models from
What is the run time of the jeep?
It depends how you drive it😅😊
That's a nice little machine

Yes… more coming 👌
@@TomleyRC Legend🤘
How big is that thing next to an mn d90?
The FTX?
@@TomleyRC yessir
Fairplay the ftx looks great but the scx6 looks on another level it looks so realistic the way it articulates
Cool RC and great crawling,nice review
O yeah old Blue 👌👌
The ftx looks interesting but would maybe a little too small for me. Couldn't resist to compare it to my Gmade buffalo. I am not too heavy in crawlers and the decision for a Gmade wasn't easy 😅
It is small…. It makes it a little more rewarding when you get a good run
@@TomleyRC is that what you tell the ladies, haha.
Awesome vid.. Love it
The Outbacks are really quite competant little crawlers if you can find the right tyres for them Phil.
What do you think of the ftx kanyon over the ftx ranger2 . Can't make my mind up 😜
I do like this v3 would just like something alittle bigger
Everyone keeps saying about the Kanyon… I suppose I better get one 😅
@@TomleyRCyea get one lol😜they do look pretty good and quite capable with the 540 I think?
Appliance electronic£168
actually - based on dimensions - FTX/RGT jimny is almost 1/9 :) looking forward for their Rescuer :)
Yes, the new one looks really nice! And a decent spec!
Please try the FTX GEO there

What a cool video, you have to subscribe right away.
😎👌
It’s Matter of time before they come out with a 6x6 6th scaler
Did You Have A Good CHRISTMAS?.
It looked like a mother duck with its duckling haha
It's coped well..👍🇬🇧😎
Well it's a bit unfair 🤣 size, scale and price but in my opinion the ftx done really well
Since everyone’s making a 1/5 scale now, now 1/10 scales are small lol
Nowt to do with RC but isn’t this the place that Carwow films it’s off-road segments?
Yes, same place 👍
RGT 136100 is the other brand of the FTX
Not a fair challenge
It may not have been all that fair… but it was a Ton of Fun!
I’d have 10 scx10s vs 1 scx6
Totally let down by the rubber
Just hook up chain and the sx6 Pull it
7th comment 🤗
Isn’t the scx6 much closer to $1,000 than it is $2,000? $1,099? Round that up to 2k for the title 🤣
As I mention in the video, this one has Treal upgrades. I think it actually works out at £1650 ($2200)
3 minutes in
Tug of war between scx6 and X maxx
Neither one for me, I'll spend a grand and get a good builder.
Again.
I love your videos, but how tf is this remotely fair. "Dang the big one made it over the giant obstacle the little one couldn't. Get the big one way better" they're not the same
It was a ‘fun’ challenge rather than a ‘fair’ challenge. And the FTX was probably the truck that stole the show rather than the expensive SCX6 😅
Good lord people, get a clue. If you don't like what's in the FREE content get a refund. Age a fuggin complaining kids.
Scx6 isnt fun its 2 big
Not even a comparison. They are for totally different terrain. No reason to compare
No shit
