Its an absolute work of art now, and costs less than my 1/10th Maxx would have to build even as a roller haha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumper Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 not much ground clearance on that for bashing. this is a race truck for sure. this would probably be more like a solid axle stadium truck that a solid axle monster truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m-racing Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 WOW sick Sad you must have shorty lipos I like the other chassis they make to https://freestyle-rc.com/collections/chassis PRO-C looks cool also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydoddy69 Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Isnt the whole point of a monster truck to be oversized high C of G this looks more like a solid axle truggy now. It’s a fantastic idea but for me it’s taking out the monster truck vibe altogether 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
