Could they CANCEL the TRX4 with this New FMS FCX10?

I know that feeling, not the bit about the wife though. I bought a couple vintage cars to rescue lately, but I really should get another handset to farm out some of my existing cars to, rather than having a big number of them on just one.

nice truck and video, traxxas should sell bit better lexan bodies, those w no windows and less details for the same price are the reason people start looking for alternatives😂😂

So much attention to detail. Really nice to see a company really thinking about the car design and the end user.... love it Phil

FMS are great at taking something good and making it better for cheaper price and that’s what keeps people in the hobby. Thanks Philly 💯👍…

I have many smaller scale crawlers and have yet to get a 1/10 scale. Was looking into TRX4s but after this release I think I’m sticking with FMS for my first 1/10 scale rig.

[@octavianocanedo9933]

Que tal amigo Phil, creo que traxxas en sus trx4 tendrá que innovar o al menos poner más opciones en sus rastreadores ya que otras marcas como esta fms se está poniendo las pilas y ofrecen un excelentes productos como este y anteriores wow..... se merecen un 10, felicidades es envidia de la buena yo quiero ese naranja con blanco aunque este roto 😁😁😁😁saludos amigo......

@@DidntaskbudTraxxas is partly rehashed old ideas and mostly lawyers and lawsuits. No self-respecting hobbyist that has been paying attention buys anything from Traxxas. They will not stop until they are the only manufacturer in the business. I don’t know of any other RC companies where the Supreme Court stepped in to curb their BS.

Ordered one a few hours ago. The freebies are lights, fenders and camper shell and they say they are limited while supplies last.

Very nice! Good to see more options come to market. It'll never "cancel" the TRX4, though. Traxxas fanboys don't ever stray from their beloved brand!

[@FastSS02]

I wouldn't say that. I was going to get a TRX4M K10 but my local shop sold out of the ones they had the day previous when I went back with the money. After looking online I found the FCX24 K5 and decided it was a better buy with the functions and bought one. I love it! Definitely want to get the orange/white 1/10 to match the FCX24!

Problem I've got with FMS is that their customer service is absolutely trash. I never had a reply to a single email....

Thanks for the detailed review! So many promotors out here but just a few of you do good videos like this.

[@TomleyRC]

Cheers Dan. I try to cover most things without dragging it out too long

[@michaeldorich4485]

This is a great review. It's an impressive crawler. I don't know much about crawling, but the dig function seem to be very practical in tight turns. When you consider the conditions it performed well. All the features it includes is outstanding. It might be interesting to do a test over a few months to test its long term durability.

[@TomleyRC]

I’m hoping to do a few upgrades to it 👌

[@stusrcshed]

Cool vid. FMS really have come along as a manufacturer. Not that they were ever bad though.

[@FastSS02]

I'm surprised the roll bar lights can't be made to function. You can buy the light kit to make the FCX24 version function. I'm also a hater of turn signals! Just make them come on solid with the headlights as running lights!

[@joshuaanothereraseddad]

As always another fun video sir. One fail, imo, on an otherwise brilliant model, would be closing off the cabin comaprtment making it into a truck. I'd have to cut that out. But my golly, that is an incredible piece of kit! I'm not into the hobby, however, I enjoy a few of y'alls RC channels, but this one has really got me. Gotta say that one is a beaut!

[@NBC_NCO]

You get a lot of car/truck for the money. I like it.

[@shottingham]

I've never really been interested in buying a crawler before, but I think you've changed my mind. :)

[@bepowerification]

lol, its funny how you always use the plastic hand to show things but in this case where there are labels to be careful with metal objects because of the lights connection you use a metal stick :)

[@JD-tl7ld]

I like the idea of dial on demand drag brake. I am not crazy about the body and needing to drill it for the topper, but other than that it seems to be a winner. It's 129 USD cheaper than my SCX10III and loaded with stuff I'd love to have on my Axial. I was hoping it would have part commonality with the other 10th scale FMS trucks so I could incorporate some of those featured into the older ones I already have, but it doesn't seem so.

[@but531]

The rear dig function is not gimmicky at all. I saw this function pre-installed in the first kyosho crawler 14 years ago. The dig function can save you a lot of tipovers in very critical and very tight turns if you want to drive like a real crawl trail truck. Also, you can use the dig function as a handbrake to play in slippery surfaces😉. I like this model. It seems that it is one of the most complete rc models for an rtr. Very, very good job from FMS 🤌🤌.

Great review! What an awesome entry to compete with the TRX4. The TX is pretty amazing too.

[@alankowalski8781]

So I am all about that thing. It just doesn’t cancel the trx4, but the Scx10 with the dig. But my ONLY issue with it is, if I want to do a motor/esc swap, then I’m assuming I would have to switch to an aftermarket remote, and eliminate the functionality of things like turning the drag break up and down via the remote? Which I love that feature, but I don’t keep anything stock.

[@Freakeye_RC]

Hobbywing 1080g2 esc has adjustable on the fly drag brake..I have them on both my trx4m high trails..on the Ford I have it paired with a radiolink rc6gs transmitter and my Chevy is paired with flysky noble nb4. I can adjust the drag brake with vr knob..If you get a flysky receiver maybe you can keep the stock transmitter

[@davidives7204]

Great review as ever. I always appreciate you explaining the benefits of the various capabilities. I have in love with the black.

[@ryurc3033]

It looks sharp....ish. its a great truck for the money. However that spot in the front under the grill.....no holes, no contour. Just flat and bright orange.......looks like the bumper could go up or the body could drop slightly, and it wouldn't look like a refrigerator. Its like the jconcepts bodys......all the details are there, but the proportions are all slightly off. It looks good enough, but if the proportions were scaled up the talegate would be 3 1/2 feet tall from the bumper to the glass.... and the grill looks tiny like it should be 10mm taller. Im being nitpicky at this point. But with so many options for more scale accurate bodies......the price is going to have to be on point. Im sure they will still sell plenty

[@roblowrie1969]

That's really nice. Well done FMS. A genuine competitor to the TRX4? Price will have a big part in that, but I likey. 👍🏻😎

I have been using magnets for years for my rc's that have lights on the body. On my 10th scale and bigger anyway. Anything smaller gets to be a pain because of the limited space.

[@matusknives]

For an RTR this is a very impressive car. And it lo - looks really cute. Question only time can really answer is how robust all those features will be. The suspension seems to work really well - a very good balance for tracking and crawling it would seem. I suppose it is going to be around 450€ once it hist the old continent. EDIT: Yeah, the tires obviously needed to be upgraded for more grip.

What color was the topper for the black truck? did you have to paint it? When I first saw your posts on Facebook of the fully blacked out truck I knew I had to copy it, It looks so good! I 100% agree about the indicators, auto blinking while turning is dumb, also I believe the light on the fender is a marker light and not a indicator.

[@TomleyRC]

Topper was Black. I went out and bought some gloss black to paint it… only to then realise it was already black haha

If they would just make the indicators turn on when under full lock… that would be perfect. Stop making them flash as the slightest turn.
