Is the FTX Rokatan any good?

WE test and session the new 3S powered 4wd Rokatan from FTX. Under the shell is a strong chassis ready for the track.
It is Carl ... to support the brave the shave for Macmillan support visit link. www.justgiving...
The Hobbywing brushless speed control and 2500kv motor, coupled with the supplied 3S 3500mAh Lipo battery provides amazing speed for a super driving experience from a model of this size via the 4WD shaft design and front and rear metal geared differentials.
Front and rear shock absorbing bumpers and skid plates, hidden inside the bodyshell provide out of sight protection. Aggressive treaded pattern tyres, wider on the rear for extra traction are mounted to 8-spoke wheels and include a functional spare.
All topped off with an LED roof bar for night-time forays, the Rokatan is ready for you to take on anyone that wants your rig!

Great video chaps, definitely look forward to seeing the Rokatan against the Dr8 and a Senton. 👍

[@PopalongRC]

So are we

"What have you done" cracked me up....why I will never get rid of my beard 😂

[@PopalongRC]

The beard will be back …

[@kama8880]

Great video as always. I only wished it was longer 😁

[@PopalongRC]

Thanks for the feedback

[@tigerone2353]

Yeah. I do like the Rockatan. Like the hood ornament. I'm become a fan of FTX. Got 86100 v1, and it's a most capable crawler. Great video

[@PopalongRC]

Not familiar with the 86100

[@tigerone2353]

@@PopalongRC cause I goofed. It's an RGT 86100. (same as ftx). RGT & FTX come from same place.

[@dominicchesterman2107]

Is there a blank or way to run it without the engine sticking out the bonnet? This seems like a great basher!

[@PopalongRC]

It can be taken off

[@sambagogo777]

FTX sure make some peculiar choices. Rokatan uses Philips head screws like its some cheapo Bangood special whereas the similarly priced Zorro Brushless thankfully does not.

[@PopalongRC]

Tamiya also use Phillips head screws … on the fence with this one… We have rounded of our fair share of Allen bolts

[@TheWoodlandhoBo]

Have you boys ever made your way over to sandy Sandhills Bedfordshire for buggy bashing. It’s awesome.
I’ve seen kev Talbot go there.

[@PopalongRC]

We may venture that way .. we have lots of good spots locally

[@PopalongRC]

Interesting idea

[@TheWoodlandhoBo]

😂

[@TheWoodlandhoBo]

Good on you Carl.
I honestly didn’t recognise you 😂

[@PopalongRC]

Cheers Tim

[@Pedro-tt4ub]

That’s not Carl 😆

[@PopalongRC]

DNA test have confirmed it is Carl

[@stewartgreen22]

Thought there was a newbie ha ha

[@Luke-en2tk]

Could also run it on 2s on your grass track for more driveability and less wheeling 😂

[@PopalongRC]

Absolutely 👍

[@Luke-en2tk]

Something is different 🤔🤷🤣
