FMS FJ45 - One great looking Supermodel!

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

FMS recreates one of my favorite trucks, the Toyota Land Cruiser FJ45 Pickup. It's definitely one of the finest 12th scale RC truck bodies I've seen in a very long time. Spring-under leaf springs, functional tailgate, removable top and doors, this one has it all if you're looking for a finely crafted model. Is it a great RC though? Watch and find out.

    WPL calls their FJ45 (C34 & 44KM trucks) 1/12. This appears to be closer to 1/14, if I had to guess.I’d be interested in getting one of these but I already have a decked out C44KM in virtually the exact same color. And it crawls like a champ for its size. The FMS is a great looking truck. They did it right. But I’m just not sure I’ll put the money into one right away.

These older 4x4s had quite a big wheel, as they would (probably) not be designed for power steering, and a bigger radius helped with the effort made to move the wheel =)
