I only got a few minutes into yours, then immediately called my closest lhs, who informed me they had just one, the orange one(which is what I wanted), so I scheduled an extended lunch and drove into town to pick it up. Getting ready to take this thing down to the nearest trails!

J&K Newb Not enough to keep it. The performance is okay, but I don’t enjoy driving it much. I also don’t like the “rock racer” style. When it comes to scale 4x4’s, I’m finding that I mostly prefer the models that reflect the type of vehicle I would want in 1:1 size, if money was no issue. 😁

got two of these, one for me and one for my fiance. we love running our rigs on the local mountain bike trails, we always get a great reception from the hikers and mnt bikers. we live in Chaffee County Colorado, aka heaven for 1/10th scale wheelin. in the end, thank you for your completely thorough review, your review made our decision on which trail rigs to get much easier and we couldn't be happier. *edit- fiance says she wishes there was a female driver.

Good little video mate. I’ve come across one of these on Facebook marketplace which is why I’ve been looking into some videos. Do you know if the KMC wheels were aluminium and beadlocks or just plastic? I can’t find anything about it unfortunately. And do you know if there’s upgrades you can do for the front axle cv joints like changing to a uni joint style over the cup style?

Wow hard to believe this is already 3 years old. I'm building a wraith with o.g. scx10 axles, literally built from spares

It's a nice looking truck, and I want to get one as my first axial, but is it really worth almost $400? that's more than I paid for my Twin Hammer V2, which was a much more fully loaded truck with a much nicer transmitter.

luvtocatchem I recommend this, if you afford it, because it comes with metal gears ⚙️ in the transmission, LED headlights, pods for extra LED’s(in a very scale front grill), likely better suspension geometry, and better overall fun factor. I have both(just picked up the orange Wraith 1.9 today), and will probably sell the Deadbolt and just keep the hop ups for this(since it uses the same axles & tranny).

Hello, I would like to buy a capable rig for the Recon G6 competition. From your point of view, what do you advise me to look for?

Yeah I’m in the same situation. TRX 4 Sport, 1.9 Wraith or Redcat Gen 8?

I got me the wraith 1.9. Originally I got a 2s battery for it. A few months later I went to the hobby shop to get a 3s for it. They were telling me I would need a BEC for it to run 3s. I'm not really sure even what a BEC does. But anyway what do you think.

I can continue to wait to assemble my kit and just order the axles from that one and upgrade for my unassembled unit. I may have to wait. Horizon seems to be buying everything up. I am not a fan of Spektrum at all. Tactic was way better. I guess I can wait till they offer a build your own kit ,then order parts.

I like it...I bought it...I LOVE it...
