What a piece. Look at the clod stall on their video on their site. Dunno could be a dig but doesn't look like a 3 channel tx.

this is what alls the dads, sons and daughters are gonna see when they go to buy a toy, most probably dont even know better crawlers exist... let alone know that there are hobby shops that specialize in r/c.
if this is what's gonna get more people to join the hobby, then hope its good

This is a REAL piece of...... ART?
Why guys are you calling this a capability???
my stock axial was more capable than this piece of.... ARRRRT
Nevertheless, if it brings more ppl in crawling - fine!
But i'm afraid, ppl will be scary of that thing and will never ever would like to try the real thing.

Do they include a blank driver with crawler free? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aStq1978278)

This looks kinda more capable. We definitely have to research this one, guys

Never know, might be able to tare one down and scavenge something useful from it. The single front mounted motor is and interesting design, would like to see it.

some people would argue that this would get more people into the hobby, personally i think it would turn them away. Its alot of money for a not so capable rig......
