1/18 Glacier 4x4 crawler???

[iRIsHsUicIDe59]

Has anyone ever heard of this RTR truck? It looks extremely realistic scale wise but then again it kinda looks cheaply made. Which I'm sure it is. Although it does have a $149.00 price tag so I don't really know how to think. Here's the Amazon link. If anyone has had any experience with this really sweet looking truck please let me know.

Yes, I've heard of it. No, I have no experience with it. Why don't you buy it, and let us know how it pans out, because I, and the rest of us can't tell you how to think either. OK?

Looks just like an FMS. I wouldn't pay $150 for an FMS when you have the Traxxas TRX-4M, Redcat Ascent-18 Scout II and the 1/18 HPI Venture.

You can save money by ordering on AliExpress. Here's just one example:

Most of all FMS trucks are beautiful static models (great bodies) that they happen to convert to RC. They look great driving on dirt trails but are not capable Rc's if you plan to even remotely climb some rocks they will spend a lot of time upside down. I think they focus on giving you an aesthetically good looking vehicle that happens to work as an rc.

This is based on the earlier Fms platform. I wouldn't pick up any of those. The only FMS rigs I would pick up are the ones based on their FCX platforms. FCX24 and FCX18 based rigs are more capable and closer to the offerings of other manufacturers.
