Stunning Short course truck FTX Apache RC truck

[@alexjohnson2088]

Looks nice I might go for the apache

[@PopalongRC]

Great looking truck and fun to drive … will be racing it against the other SCT soon

[@stephenlay9580]

Nice new sct, I have the Brushless zorro I would like to see them side by Racing 😜

[@PopalongRC]

What this space Video coming soon

[@georgepapamichail1006]

What a nice video. Glad you are actually making videos for other rc companies apart from the well known ones !!! You have my subscription.

[@PopalongRC]

Cheers George Thanks for you support

[@georgepapamichail1006]

@@PopalongRC Keep on reviewing other companies and answering viewers questions and I believe that you will make a difference. By the way how about taking a look at the ABSIMA TORCH 4s truggy, which of course is not a basher... just a suggestion.🙂

[@PopalongRC]

We have looked at those and the vorza as well

[@barrycheesemore2928]

A couple of great value, decent cars. One of the best things about FTX stuff is the price of spares, they're so cheap! To be honest I wouldn't mind one of these myself....

[@PopalongRC]

We will be doing some grassroots racing over the summer no doubt

[@MechanicallyFun]

these are great platform 👍

[@PopalongRC]

Great fun

[@JoevsRc]

From the outside the Apache looks just like the Mojave.

[@PopalongRC]

You’re not wring

[@michaelschaeffer3147]

Can't find it stateside yet. Any suggestions?

[@TomleyRC]

The motor is actually a 3652 2500kv….. the end can is printed incorrectly. It’s a really nice truck, but I reckon if it had the FTX Zorro Brushless electronics it would be even better (3660 2900kv & 80a ESC)

[@gillian9178]

Even better still with the Zorro brushless 3665 2900kv motor & 80a esc lol. I think the Brushless Zorro with its centre diff would be a better choice than the Apache.

[@PopalongRC]

Depends how you plan to drive it Grass roots racing Zorro Fun jumping bashing and general use Apache

[@Pablo668]

Nice guys. Enjoying the channel!

[@PopalongRC]

Many thanks for your support pablo👍

@@PopalongRC my pleasure mate!

[@craetz4]

2wd ? Looks amazing

[@PopalongRC]

4wd :)

[@beyondRC]

What an Epic Vid! This looks awesome! you bringing this along to our race? Looking forward to it! interested to see how this performs against my slash and senton 😜

[@PopalongRC]

hoping the fact that it is 4wd drive it will run rings around the slash and senton 2wd but we will have to wait and see...

[@paulrobinson9355]

Great video as always! How’s it compare to the Zorro Brushless with is centre diff etc?!

[@PopalongRC]

I absolutely love the Zorro and think Zorro has the edge when it comes to handling but for durability Apache wins hans down

[@meanrhythm9048]

Great vid. How did the Apache perform in terms of handling and speed against the Rokotan gents? Much difference? Got a pump track near me but not sure what the score is on using it. You’re there at last knock which I’m guessing is the trick - i.e. not Saturday Afternoon peak BMX time. Great vid and SCTs. Too much fun aren’t they 😊 MR

[@PopalongRC]

So much fun Looks to be a bit quicker and punchier with the slightly bigger motor and the better shocks means it is a better handling truck also… they are very similar though.

[@meanrhythm9048]

@@PopalongRC Thank you.

[@soma_rc]

Any RC video that starts with some drum&bass and I know it's you guys 🙂

[@PopalongRC]

Can’t beat a bit of D&B👍

[@soma_rc]

@@PopalongRC absolutely

[@Cameron2874]

😂😂😂 totally read that as "dumass" first time 🤦

[@peekii4384]

Good crack lads 👍 Check out the associated pro4 sc10. Same basically as the rival mt10 but longer wheelbase and short coursified. Awesome truck for the beans. Takes a lot of abuse. Take it easy

[@PopalongRC]

Another car on our wishlist

[@meanrhythm9048]

…or the 2wd Pro 2

[@PopalongRC]

Maybe

[@jhaybz29]

Hey guys, I've heard that FTX and VRX sometimes share's the same chassis type, I was wondering if there is an equivalent chassis that VRX has for this type of chassis. (I was asking cuz the VRX brand is available from where I am from [SEA])

[@PopalongRC]

I think that is based on the vantage carnage bugsta Zorro style chassis and the Rokatan and Apache are on a different chassis platform and there might not appear in the VRX range

[@Xandro_B20]

Is the Apache better than the Zorro brushless?

[@PopalongRC]

still yet to go head to head ... might do it this week ...

[@Xandro_B20]

@@PopalongRC thanks! Dunno which one to get for my wee lad. He want’s something for light bashing. We already have 2 mt10’s, looking for something different.

[@PopalongRC]

Light bashing Apache 100% Remember you can get a discount at Rochester even if you use code popalongrc

[@sambagogo777]

A shame that you couldn't try it on grass because in Tomley's review he encountered overheating issues when running it with a 3S battery on grass.

[@PopalongRC]

All our cars over heat when running in grass tracks due to the way we race them but try to run times runs to keep temp down

[@mark-1rc502]

I had one on order , after watching Tomley RC I decided to cancel it. Sub 40mph on 3s not my Cuppa .!

[@PopalongRC]

Short course track and it will be plenty fast enough

[@mark-1rc502]

@@PopalongRC Yes but correct me if I’m wrong they generally Race legally on 2s . 38 mph is generally 2s territory .
