New 1/16 Rock Crawler RGT 136161

[donaldsneffe]

Hi,
new and quite interesting for people who like WPL sized trucks (as I do), but different construction.
Description does have quite a lot of errors (2WD with 2 driveshafts? 17 kg servo? probably 17 g, 1/10 and 20 cm wheelbase? 15 - 20 km/h for such a small crawler?).

For double/triple the cost, I would assUme it is of better quality. But the bodies are lacking where the WPL excelled in scaleness.

Yes, the body is ugly. But chassis looks good.
Price is quite high.
But 20 cm wheelbase - I hope, WPL / MN bodies will fit.

I do have some spare WPL C44, C34 and MN90 here ;)

Little high priced for me, chassis does look some better. Still looks like plastic links and axles. Going to hold off on this one.

Quite curious, ordered the car some weeks ago, still waiting for delivery. Comes with Dumbo radio, lights, etc. - no 2in1 receiver/esc.

Hi,
received it some days ago - see review video.

Comes with DumboX4 radio (rebranded, but works with Dumbo receivers) with rx with light controller.
A "new" black Hobbywing 1625 ESC with crawler mode, awsome drag brake, very bad low speed behaviour... very strong

Gears are sturdy... 12 mm hex, WPL rims wont fit, wheel base the same as MN-90, WPL C34, MN-45...

Looks better in real than on the pics. Good quality lexan body, sturdy.
Plastic drive shafts, links, frame.
Oil-filled shocks.

Check the review video, please ;)

If there wouldn't be this bad low speed control, I would say "fantastic, awsome".

I already got mine and managed to broke and replace the servo with stronger one. Then the lights started to behave strange as I understand that the esc can't handle well the new servo. Do you recommend to upgrade it with something like hobbywing 1060?
