    4x4 and decent power for $150!

    4x4 and decent power for $150!
    This truck is great for the right customer. In my case, I have always been an RC fan and I have had several helicopters and street cars, both gas and electric.Ive always wanted a 4x4. This was my chance to not spend a lot of money and get a taste. Here is the real beauty: For $150 you get a car that is four wheel drive, can take a decent beating out of the box, and is fully upgradable and customizable. But, you can take your time and upgrade at your own pace. Want to go lipo? The stock esc can run it. Want to go brushless? You can. Want to add metal parts? There are tons available, including third party. You can even get third party wheels and body's. I was thinking of putting a FJ cruiser body on mine.If you want an entry level four wheel drive monster truck that you can make as competitive as you like at a pace that you like then this is a great option.In the video the truck is stock with Hobby Park aluminum chasis, 5000mAh NiMH battery, and suspension linkages repositioned to allow longer suspension travel. No spring stiffeners.A few weeks later and the truck has been fitted with waterproof 120a hobbywing esc and a 3100kv brushless motor, running 3s lipos. Still haven't broken anything and the only thing (besides electronics) that isn't stock is the aluminum chassis.
