Got this for my 5yr old and i think its great he takes it to skate park, jumps it etc and its still going strong 👍

This and the HBX 16889 Brushless Truck are two of my favorite 1/16 scale RC Cars.

I have one of these I love it in fact all my family love it FTX is such an underrated brand that proves that you can get a good fun RC car for under £100

Fantastic video especially the drone shots I also have the mavic mini, again enjoyed that video.

I'm also a terrible sleeper at best but getting drips and injections every few hours,then observations every few hours I was climbing the walls to get out. Anyhoo I was looking at that range of Mavericks and Ftx. I love the look of the quantum in green,but also love the look of the Ftx Outlaw, I thought I was set on the Outlaw but it apparently has a few dodgy flaws.

Got it and do thoroughly enjoy as good option for this noob. Brushless version in HBX16890 badge. Thumbs up ! Tough little bugger for the price.

After thought: oil filled shock upgrade help considerably.

It's a great looking little Truggy, and I agree about it looking better than the HBX. I've had to order a new shell for my son's HBX as it's cracked to hell. I was looking at the new RedCat Racing Volcano 16, which again, is exactly the same as both the HBX and the FTX (and the HS1602). I should have looked for an FTX in the UK, rather than having to order from China. 👍🏻

Do you have anyway to compare these to the Haiboxing hailstorm? It has the same layout but the hailstorm says it’s 1/18. It looks the same scale as the 1/16. If they are the same it would really help with finding parts. Please help:)

Just bought one of these for my boy. I bought a spare battery as well as the one that came with it. I assume you plug the balance plug into the charger, however the manual mentions green light but I only have red and it went out almost instantly after starting charging. I would of thought these batteries don't come with much charge so thought i would have to wait a while for full charge. Did your charger just have red light as well?

Hi I have one of these but I have to keep going on and off the throttle as it cuts all power to the motor if I keep any amount of throttle on for around 2 seconds Once it cuts out there is a blue led on the receiver that starts to flash slowly Only does it on the ground If I hold it up it’s fine It’s like the esc Is overloading under any load? Any idea? Regards

Hi there As a kid I was mad on my rc cars, all nikko, never had any toy grade. Now my kids are at the right age we started playing with them but needles to say they didn't last long. After watching a load of your vids this seemed like the ideal way to start so we bought it and we love it. My only problem is battery life. I'd like to buy some batteries with a higher amp hour. I see 1500 mah ones advertised but looking at the dimensions they don't look like they would fit. Do you or any one else for that matter have know of a suitable spare for this ? Any help would be much appreciated. Keep up the good work, me and the kids love your videos.
