Pick 2: Very Scale. Cheap. Capable ?
This is the Trasped HG4-52 Toyota 4Runner 1/18 scale model crawler (https://www.banggood.com/custlink/vmmH7dUqmk ). It's the 'Upgraded' version, which includes 4WS, full light function, a sound kit and functional simulated exhaust. Not a bad package for USD$100!
So what's the catch? No car is perfect (okay, some get close, but not in this price bracket) but this newly-released RC model sure looks good on paper!
This is my Trasped HG4-52 review. Let's take a look!
--
Small correction: there's no *extra* smoke fluid included. The car does come with the little tank filled, for maybe 40 minutes of smoke, give or take.

BUY HERE
There are two versions and two colors of this model. Both versions come in both colors, so that's 4 choices!
Buy the UPGRADED version here (as shown in this video):
Banggood: https://www.banggood.com/custlink/vmmH7dUqmk
The STANDARD Version doesn't have 4WS, lights, sound or smoke:
BG with Coupon: https://www.banggood.com/custlink/DmKP1yz2vN
If you're interested, the other two HG4 models are a little cheaper:
HG4-53 Suzuki Jimny: https://www.banggood.com/custlink/vvGVuYqTYH
HG4-50 Toyota FJ40: https://www.banggood.com/custlink/KvDVfEUuYa
Also consider the FMS models, they're great! Here are my videos of these:
FMS 1/18 Jimny: https://youtu.be/DD2DkAWxKGA
FMS 1/18 K10 Blazer: https://youtu.be/F-RStYuFt58
FMS 1/12 Willys MB: https://youtu.be/SU_dVgTrR4E
FMS 1/24 FCX24 Blazer: https://youtu.be/EzAGet0275o
A correction: these FMS models don't have sound kits, as I suggested early in this video.

HUINA
huina-1580-v4-upgrades!-making-a-good
The Huina 1580 v4, our favourite budget-premium RC excavator, is back and better than ever. After one of the linear actuators started clicking a while back, I had a few choices: replace with another OEM actuator and risk the same issue, replace everything with a hydraulic system, or go about halfway on price and strengthen everything but keep it electric-only.
I took the middle path and am really glad I did! The machine is now stronger, faster, more stable and able to eat more ground than ever! This video takes you through the upgrades and changes I've made. See our website for a more detailed write-up with photos and descriptions of each part of the upgrade process.
The Huina 1580 (or Huina 580) was already a great choice for a long-lasting scale model. With these changes it's even better - and you don't have to spend a lot to do it!
Our original review of the Huina 1580 v4: https://youtu.be/rdGVIrY-_HU

RIVER
river-boulder-rock-crawl!-is-the-big
Axial SCX6 river rock crawling! It's nearly holidays time. No testing this week, just a relaxing few minutes of 1:6 scale RC rock crawling action every day. Enjoy the pretty waterfalls, the river rocks and that sweet, large-scale articulation.
Welcome to Plenty Gorge. Ride along with the SCX6 as we tour one of the best crawl comp locations in the city. I love it here and hope you will too. Thanks for coming crawling with me!
May your year ahead be better in every way than this year. My warmest regards to you, my RC family. -Craig, RC-TNT.

The Traxxas X-Maxx 8S needs no introduction! And so, this is not a review. Today, I have my early running experiences and first mods to share with you. Plenty of air, some dust, a bunch of tumbles and a little chat about what I like and what I want to fix.

checking-out-the-slippy-fms-fcx10-chevy!
The FMS FCX10 Chevrolet K5 Blazer (1979?) is the latest 1/10 scale RC crawler from FMS. Featuring more servos than you can poke a stick at, the car also comes with an interesting new radio from FlySky that we recently tested with the Yikong YK4106 Pro. There's a light kit as part of it, a bunch of different features and even some available channels for you to play with.
Join me for a look at this one, it should be interesting!
Buy the FCX10 here: http://asiate.es/aff?l=233634&i=76070
AsiaTees sent me this lanyard set (thanks guys). I like it!

mistreating-the-kyosho-fazer-mk2
Drive de-brief of our Kyosho Fazer Mk2 Dodge Hellcat Challenger SRT2015 1/10 EP 4WD RTR. Not a review so much as an after-drive report.
The Mk2 isn't a drifter - but then, many cars can slide in the right conditions. So, we went and found some! Only problem was, there was opportunity for big air - and I drove this right after sending the Senton 3S into space for 15 minutes. Not my smartest moment!
This platform has been with us for 3 years already. There is a delightful range of highly detailed bodies and this thing is fun to drive. We take a look at the brushed Fazer Mk2 on a rather un-scale test track: a local skate park.
Let's test!

I TRY
i-try-every-available-rgt-rescuer-mod!
RGT hit it out of the part with their EX86190 Rescuer. It's just a pearler of a trail rig. We loved it in our initial review and subsequent testing - even mudded it good and proper and it didn't miss a beat!
Now, it's time to bolt on every mod RGT makes for this wonderful beastie. Some for looks, some for performance. The cost is certainly lower than other big brand equivalents. But is the value there?
Let's test!
