I saw this on my instagram and nearly fell out of my chair. We knew eventually this day would come. Glad to see it happen.

It's awesome and I hope to buy one, but that wheelbase is way too long.

 

[Awesome Kong84]

Needs bigger tires and wheels... Proline has that covered for sure.

 

[SwampDawg]

Caution!! R/C is highly addictive!!

 

[VNEMSS]

[scott037]

[Jcplante]

Looks awesome. I was gonna build one just like it but my tube welding skills are a bit lacking. Maybe I will sell some stuff and grab one of these!

Should have it Thursday!

I got mine yesterday from Tower.... this thing is AWESOME in person. I've yet to drive it due to work,but man, it's beautiful!

 

[Mudsy]

Will this ever come in a kit form?

 

[redemon]

Nevermind
I misread it

I have been told by reading through threads that it is way to breakable. I think I read that it uses the scx10 Trans with plastic internals.

I would say wait for a kit if you can, but IF a kit is released it will probably be far, far out because they are releasing other Monster Jam RTRs from what I was told by my LHS.

With that being said, I had issues with mine due to screws backing out in the transmission. They didn't use threadlock during assembly. Since then it's been durable, but I'm using stock electronics on 3S. If you upgrade the power you're going to bend or break parts.

I've been keeping an eye on this truck, and am considering getting it for Christmas. If I do, I'll be going into it with the understanding that, in order to make it perform as a capable monster truck, it'll need similar upgrades as a Wraith would, in order to make it perform as a capable rock racer. Hence, making it brushless-capable. i.e. Steel tranny gears, drive shafts, etc. I've already got a nice brushless power plant that I think will be just right for it.

Like others have mentioned, I wish they'd have made it brushless-ready, since that is the logical upgrade, given that a 27T brushed motor is going to be kid-speed. I mean, in consideration of a kid getting one of these, and opening it up and playing with it on Christmas day, a 27T brushed motor will likely ensure that it will last through the day, at least, right? If I get one, I'll immediately yank the brushed system and resell it, as it'll be a decent entry level, budget crawler system.

Thing is, I have a kit-built Wraith that I've yet to finish up with upgrades, and looking at getting another AX10/AR60 based rig, with the intention of upgrading for performance, is sort of not looking so appealing, as it'll just be another money and time spender. I know, that's the hobby. Maybe I'm starting to peak. Haha!

I kinda feel like they may not release a kit if they are trying to capture a younger audience. Eg monster jam licenses.
