I so like the fog background ! 👍 Music too, rollin' to the tune, huh !!? 😁 -I really like your FTX RIG !! I am thinkin' about gettin' one, or at least the body, I cannot pass it up ! - Have a Merry Christmas/Happy New Year guy !! 🎅🌲🎀✌️❤️🇺🇲🤘 Do you know a good, trustworthy distributor ??

[@hikingbikingderbyshire3682]

Thank you for your comments. I got mine from model sport. Have you seen the “Texan version” that’s cool looking too. Have a good Christmas

[@bladedgoo7471]

is it waterproof or resistant because im looking to mud bog or trail with water streams

[@hikingbikingderbyshire3682]

Hi yes the speed controller is waterproof. The receiver is in a small protective box. But if you are like me and like mud plugging you should put the receiver in a kids party ballon for further protection. I will be doing some water videos with the Hi Rock so watch this space.

Great video. That new FTX seems to perform well SFTB. Decent spec too, sounds like they listen to customer feedback. Any idea if a D90 or D110 Land Rover body would fit it?

[@hikingbikingderbyshire3682]

Thank you for your comments. It’s certainly a step up. I do like the fury too which I also have. The wheelbase is the standard 313 so not sure which would fit the short or long wheelbase. I guess the 110 would we a better fit.

[@JoeD500]

I live in the peak district, done lots of rock climbing over the years, time to put my boots away & get a crawler, the hi rock looks very capable 👍 is this the wooded area at stanage?

[@hikingbikingderbyshire3682]

Hi, it's a run from Surprise view carpark to Mother cap stone.

[@JoeD500]

@@hikingbikingderbyshire3682 I'm gonna have to try that out Bryn, we used to park there to climb mothercap & surrounding areas, what a beautiful place we live mate, thankyou for your reply 👍

[@AbyssCrisp]

I there have u tried the portal axles newly made for this truck

[@hikingbikingderbyshire3682]

No not as yet. I understand they are available but not seen any yet.

[@pennineraceway1172]

Great video please could i ask what did you shoot it on?? also I have got to stop watching RC videos as i think Santa is running out of room in his sack lol..

[@hikingbikingderbyshire3682]

Hi Pennine Raceway. Thank you for your comments. The camera I used on that day was a möbius ( was about £40 when I bought it) it’s about the size of a small cigarette packet. It has no screen which suits these types of shots and you can drive over it as you have seen. Ps I have had a word with Santa about a larger sack so fingers crossed.

[@rcplaytime]

just ordered one of these, what do you think of it? subscribed 👍 👍

[@hikingbikingderbyshire3682]

Hi, I sold mine as I couldn’t get on with it. From an engineering point of you it’s very good but seems to lack something. After a trx4 I couldn’t go back lol!

[@rcplaytime]

trx4 is different league, 😀👍👍

[@XploringwithAde]

How long is the run time in one of these

[@hikingbikingderbyshire3682]

Hi, with the battery supplied about 30 mins to an hour depending on use. With a 5000 mah LiPo it will run for about two to three hours again depending on use.

[@pennineraceway1172]

Good first 1/10 scale crawler mate???

[@hikingbikingderbyshire3682]

If it's within your budget then yes. It holds its own against the axial's and the chassis layout is better allowing different battery positions. The fury is also a good start too. I have one of those too!

[@pennineraceway1172]

@@hikingbikingderbyshire3682 thanks for the reply pal have a great weekend

[@jonasthelen7053]

What type of tires do you use?

[@hikingbikingderbyshire3682]

Sorry about the delay. I used the standard tyres that came with it but with my own alloy beedlocks
