|  Need recommendations for a kit
I don't want another RTR, I want to build a truck. But, this is completely new territory for me. Here's what I think my "requirements" are... - 1/10th scale - As realistic as possible; this could mean options for bodies, body mounts (no thru-hood pins, etc.), wheel options, etc. - Performance... not really critical. I know. Strange. But I not going to compete, do events... I'm sure what ever platform I end up with, will have more than enough performance. So basically, I want to build a model (Toyota Land Cruiser or Pickup) that happens to be an RC crawler  Traxxas? Axial? Other? Oh, if this topic/question has been beaten to death, A. Please direct me to a thread and B. Sorry! Thanks! |

Vanquish Phoenix. Seems like it meets all your requirements. Or if you have the budget, get a vs410 pro. Or maybe you’re looking for more along the lines of a tamiya kit? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Last edited by twade984; 12-31-2022 at 12:48 PM. |

Seems like it checks a lot of your boxes. While I don't have one (yet.... ) I hear the quality is amazing. https://www.boomracingrc.com/brx01 | |

A very scale model that happens to be an rc you say? Sounds like a cross rc kit is about perfect. Very scale bodies and accessories that can be driven.

A kit that happens to be a Land Cruiser (80 series), and scale as possible (down to the chassis/suspension/interior etc), is the RCRUN LC80. Here's the kit without the body. I think you can find it on eBay as a whole kit. https://www.asiatees.com/display?RCR...d=177868&pid=1 |
