HG P601 Mercedes g wagon 6x6

[cookie666uk]

Anybody own one? Came up on a Chinese rubbish buying app I downloaded. I watched a few videos and it doesn't look too bad! Although considering the rest of the items on offer I really doubt the quality is going to be high end.

Edit

I found it much cheaper on bangood. 134 quid. It was 197 where I saw it first

I had a ganders at these as it took my fancy and on gearbest it's currently

Yeah the reviews and unboxing vids I saw looked good. Positive comments from the testers. Might be worth a punt

The axles seem interesting. The transmission also is constructed in a wierd way but for that price just buy and find out,everything looks strong. Its just a cheap scx10 frame with a frame extension.

I've seen those style axles before with the drive coming in from the top but can't remember where. Not sure I have room for another truck atm tho lol

[thatRCguy]

Its been used on losi crawlers but the drive system was different in those

Any update on these?  I was toying with the idea of nabbing the 4 wheel version as a budget backup truck since they're at about £100

I saw a couple of videos with both the 6x6 and 4x4 version in. They were crawling in a group with other vehicles and held they're own against everything.

Mate of mine received his this week, he is happy apart from the silly amount of chassis flex.....

cant be all bad for the money though.

Gearbest has these for £66?

That's really, really cheap!

Edit.

Looks good!

Comes with charger, LiPo and 2.4ghz system.

Beadlock wheels, locked diffs.

Cons are chassis is plastic and not oil shocks.

Looks good. Half tempted for £66!

[cookie666uk]

Do it and report back! I'm sure a metal chassis could be made quite easily

[Derka]

It's £66 from China and £108 from EU warehouse. Im unsure how Gearbest/Bang good work?

I'm saving for a Ascender or SCX10 so don't really want to blow nearly half my budget on this on,a whim.

Edit, it's £92 from China with £26 postage.

Or £95 from EU with £3 postage.

[TurboFurball]

Yeah, if you're saving for a proper crawler I wouldn't bother with this.

For me it was more something that I could use when my Mogs broken or I could lend to friends so they could come crawling with me
