hmmm, these links dont work for me, Does they work for you guys?

it says
This site can’t be reached


WOW. Love that one. So Scale. If the Quality is decent then this is
priced fair.

Anyone here who know anything about Austar Quality?
Maybe same like HG601? Then it is decent.
Nothing wrong if you just Crawl slow like i want to do if i buy 6x6.
Only mod would be good brand tires and bedlocks. 1800kv cheap Fusion SE combo later, start driving it like it is first months.
Servo seems to be OK also ?
Dumbo 6ch receiver then also. I have couple extra of these.

This looks decent to me.
Should i buy one? I really love the style, and interiour. Price also "thumbsup"

Been dreaming of one 6x6 almost 1year now. HG601 is sold out :x.
Others are too Expensive sadly.
This is intresting.

Not sure why the links don't work. Look up the king Kong 6x6 it's 1/12.
 
King kong does not have shocks. And it will end up 150$ more deliveried here where i live compared to the Austar.
If they had shocks i would buy that. Problem is there is no room for hop ups when it cost 150$ more.
Austar + buy Good-Brand tires is still budget friendly.
 
It is impossible find any 6x6 1/12 or 1/10 less than 599$ shipped.
Now i see the cheap one Land/Range Rover orange/green/silver has expensive shipping if it is cheap. 199$ shipping
and with free shipping they are alot more than 550$

Only body to this is about 200$ they sell only bodies also with interiour.

So i have deside now to by one 6x6 chassis. 120$ with shipping
3x axles, front, center, rear alu 150$ with shipping 3 axles made for 6x6 build to this chassis
then shocks , links, center drive line. it will be about 350$
I will use cheap Cab only,
like this

what are these bodies called? without bed?

Rear-End i will build self with 3mm lexan sheet. Cheap fix. Flat bed, easy fix.
Use some mixed new RTR Crawler wheels i have from couple cars.
I did take them off before first drive. They will do fine first month
to test it out.
Will also use old electronics in beginning.

This is the best way for me now, i have so much other RC Stuff already
in my BUY List.

DIY is the only budget way to go when it comes to 6x6.
 
Just got the austar 6x6. Not a1/10 more like 1/8.
Performs good, lots of potential for modding.
Shocks-metal adjustable.
Tires/foams-soft, grippy and soft.
Drveshafts- metal cvd
Links- metal with plastic rod ends and pivot ball.
27t motor has very strong magnets, lots of torque.
Hobby wing 1040 esc. Drag brake in first gear, no drag brake in second gear. Will be replaced with the fusion pro.
25kg servo, truck needs more.
Really good looking full function body.
As to compare to trx6 it's a good alternative.
Have both.
P.S. are there any threads/posts on this truck?

I spent months looking around for a decent 6x6 option. In the end I chose to build one with a GSpeed chassis and Capra axles.
Definitely not the cheap way but I don’t regret at all It’s an absolute beast!

How is the quality of the body? I have been looking at this body for my TRX6
*Body is hard plastic. Possibly may crack, but would be easy to glue. It is not a licensed body but it is accurate. A bit bigger scale. The trx4 cage is slightly narrower and 8mm taller. Light kit won't fit.
Doors tail gate and the hood open. Roof can be removed.
Overall I really like it.
Outta box it performs great, no different from trx4 other the motor 21t vs 27t.
P.S. $365 on ebay
