Currently the only RC crawler I own is a little WPL C24. I’ve built it out as far as these things can go. Tons of fun but I’m ready for a new adventure. I’d like to do a more realistic, scale build on a larger platform.
Stumbled onto this RC4WD FJ55 kit this morning.
I still don’t know much about the RC crawler world, but RC4WD seems like the cheaper option for a 1:10 platform. Seems like most folks go Traxxis or Axial, but from what I have seen going that route would be more than I want to spend on the RC hobby. I think I could get a running RC4WD 55 going for $500 all in and upgrade from there down the road.
So what are your thoughts on RC4WD and the Trail Finder platform?
The only thing that bothers me about this kit is the lack of inner wheel wells - but RC4WD sells those separately.
