Love FTX. Looked at getting this beast. Great specs for the price 👍👍👍

[@fettfan1475]

I think im gonna go for this, i was looking at the gladius, but this is deffo a prettier truck

[@parkecorepersonaltrainingp2601]

Hi Andy. Loved the vid I’m thinking of getting one of these bad boys and this was a great help 😊thanks man

[@andyrobinsonrc2480]

My pleasure , hope you enjoy the truck if take the plunge on one ;)

[@AddamsPlayground]

Looks like a pretty cool truck and it looks good. Seems pretty loaded with features as well! Kind of a shame we don't get the FTX lineup over here.

[@associatedblacksheepandmisfits]

Ftx stuff is usually sound.😊

[@shaunescarlett.1]

The best in class for that kinda money, Great video Andy👍🏼

[@andyrobinsonrc2480]

Cheers Shaun, I’m kinda agreeing with that myself , brilliant for the money

[@lo2713]

Looks a dam good buggy, ive never seen the dig feture before. But as i dont go crawling, yet. Ive never needed it. But i love the winch 😁

[@andyrobinsonrc2480]

It’s really impressive for what you get Richard , I’ve heard of Dig just never had a crawler with that function to use. The winch is also very cool works a treat

[@rcicons4915]

Considering what you get with the scx10 rtr, this thing is awesome. Great rig FTX!

[@n22pdf]

Looks great Andy.. seems lot more capable than the hpi.. love the body mount system.. and lots of features.. these guys and FMS are doing some nice RC models at the mo 😊 Pete 👍

[@geetee7154]

That is a seriously cool crawler Andy, exceptional spec and not bad price, certainly better than the ugly HPI you did recently, great review 👍

[@SPARTAN1990LIVE]

this thing rips but i have moddeed mine i done 1.9 hyrax tyres and a fusion pro brushless motor its like a diffrent car and out performs my trx4 all day

[@andysmith4394]

Very good for an ftx looks very nice 🚗

[@AreRiz]

RGT 86130 Pro runner, half the price of TRX4, and no, that's not portal axle

[@andyrobinsonrc2480]

Yes the RGT is the same as the FTX Centaur. I have no idea why I thought the centaur had portals , I was getting mixed up with the ftx gladius which does (trx4 copy)

[@davidives7204]

Great Video. I have been thinking about buying this. I have the Outback & Gladius, which are very capable, and various Traxxas Crawlers. FTX are such good value, and this one is giving Traxxas a run for its money.

[@andyrobinsonrc2480]

Hi David, I think if it performs as well as the Gladius then it’s even more worth it for the extra kit and spec you get with the Centaur. Again better value than the trx4 just doesn’t have the same kudos as one

[@isiahanderson3001]

What scale is that truck

[@andyrobinsonrc2480]

It’s a 1/10th scale like a Traxxas trx4 etc

[@chrisbarnes9442]

Is it 3s or 2s.

[@andyrobinsonrc2480]

In the kit it comes with a NIMH battery pack but it will take a 2s lipo

[@chrisbarnes9442]

Do you know if 2s would make much of a difference?

[@davidhiscock1969]

Definitely tempted with the Centaur. Hearing decent enough things about it. Think the RGT version is the EX86130 Pro Runner fella

[@countryside_guy]

The RGT also come in a very nice green.

[@davidhiscock1969]

@@countryside_guy 👍 looks like FTX are selling the green body separately too now

[@Callmebutturblk]

TRX4 clone😂

[@andyrobinsonrc2480]

The centaur isn’t a clone but the ftx gladius is , I remember thinking the gladius was different at first but soon realise that apart from the body shell you can fit anything from a trx4 on the gladius pretty much
