It actually looks like the traxxas sledge. It looks awesome. I might get one just cause of the way it looks since I love the aggressive look of the sledge. Thank you for sharing!
Hi buddy. I have had mine for a week and a bit. Broke the front arm day one, had to wait a few days to get bits as I got it so early they werent in stock at my shop till Thursday. Keen to see the work you do with it… I love it as it is, I have now changed to a 25KG Absima servo and changed the hub hex’s… also check the hub adjustments… mine were too tight and affected the steering a bit from the box. I’ve been out of RC for a long time, so this was a great car to re-introduce myself back to it. I don’t understand how to adjust the ESC punch so happy to follow your lead later when you do a new video. Cheers pal
Thank your comment, just as I type im fitting a 15t pinion, hopefully give it a little more zip, video soon 😊, the punch was on 3, max is 4, so not sure that will make a huge difference ? To change, it's switching through the beeps, so when you switch esc on, hold the set button untill you see the esc flash green, when you get to 4 green flashes let go and it will then flash red 3 times, hit set button once and will go up to 4, then switch of esc and punch on 4, thank you for steering tip, definitely needs a better servo 😄
@@RCvapor thanks mate. I will give that a go shortly ! This car will and can be so much more fun, it’s already great as standard - just wants a bit more aggression… over time adding a few bits to it, we will get there! Have you tried it on 4s. I want to buy a new battery but didn’t know the limits for the motor that’s in it so was waiting to see what others got away with 🤣
@mattbutcher3634 I'm going to stick to 3s for now, and see how gearing works, I do have a 10bl120g2 4s esc I could throw in, it does recommend using under 2000kv motor for 4s, so may try after I've exhausted what the limits on 3s are
@@RCvapor can’t wait to see it. The charger that comes with it is lame. But to be honest, I’ll use the pack - stick it back on charge then find myself spending a good hour or two making adjustments to the suspension and wheel alignment etc. My OCD is crazy with things like that! I just did the lights and I think for some reason it won’t go above 3 flashes green. When I start it now does 3 but already that’s showing some punch improvement. Weirdly when I ran through the whole thing it actually went up to 5 green beeps. I’ll have to do some actual reading up on this. I’m now a new sub of yours, looking forward to future stuff mate. Thanks
@@RCvapor hi mate. Just wondered - did the 15t Pinion make any difference. I’ve time today to shoot over to the shop - might go grab one. I can wait for the video if it’s dropping soon. Cheers
As you mentioned is definitely a little under powered but it took a rather impressive beating. We'll have to wait for the other brands to get these in the states, but they supposed to be coming soon.
Yeah definitely took it, there nearly £200 cheaper than arrma 3s here in uk and very good parts availability, my kagama took a beating today and had a few crashes where hingepins have previously broke, yours held up great 👍🏻 💪🏻
Haha just been there this evening. Im looking to upgrade the little lad from the tracer to something 1/10th for christmas. Its between this and the ramraider at the moment.
I believe they use the same chassis, definitely happy with the crossbow so far, will be down at brampton sat morning, if your on facebook we have a group, it's called Leeds rc bashers, but a few of us on there are based local to btampton, welcome to join 👍🏻

Yep it looks fantastic 👌, love the stance, with a few tweaks it will make a very capable basher imo, thank you for your comment 😀

Subbed n liked m8, bang on the steering servo is a must buy better with the car and change it right off the bat!
Cheers mate 👍🏻 appreciate thr sub. Yep servo makes a huge difference 👍🏻
Nice one man ... Fun car these . I threw in a 15t pinion and changed esc and servo .. I have the Fs Racing Sniper and it goes good
Nice mate, yes I've ordered new servo and trying a 16t pinion, gonna stick with original esc and motor for now and see how she goes 👍🏻
slapped w a sub!!. great video bro. ive like these ftx rcs since i first seen one. too bad we dont have them here in the us.
Cheers mate 👍 I think in the US they come under FSR sniper, not sure who retails them though ?
@RCvapor oh ok great thanks bro. I have to go check it out.
Thanks for the great review
Thank you, appreciate it 🙏
Thanks for the great review, what servo would you say is best to get for it?
Thank you, appreciate the comment, I have ordered a 35kg i9mod DS35 servo from ali express, used these before and pretty good for £15 👍🏻
Brilliant thank you for the response 😁
Not a bad car needs a few tweaks out of the box!
Great video!
Cheers mate, yeah definitely needs a few tweaks, great for price though 👍🏻
Its got a little Wiff of VRX Cobra
That’s a straight up sledge 😂
Yes 👍🏻🤣

Bought or supplied to review??
Bought mate 👍🏻
@@RCvapor fair does. Seems alright. Needs sending off a skate park ramp though. 😂
Nice video nice car 👍🏻
Cheers mate 👍🏻
Where is that location? Looks familiar .
@@neontetra1000 it's Brampton bmx track nr barnsley
Brampton?
Yes mate 👍🏻

Why it is good ? Because it is Team Associated Rval MT10 Clone
That's a good thing and £100 cheaper 😄 tbf all rc's are clones of something else that came before, makes for a interesting hobby imo 😉
This platform is actually the predecessor to the Rival MT10 when they were both under the Helion brand
