In this video: - Unboxing - Review - Teardown, so we can see the metal gears - Slipper clutch improvement, using a ball bearing and disc springs - Short test drive An off road test drive will follow in part 2 of this video. So stay tuned! There may also follow a brushless conversion video later on. Features: - 4WD, locked differentials - 390 size motor - 2.4GHz 2CH proportional - 2 switchable speed limits (bind button) - Long stroke shocks - Ball bearings - 1500mAh 7.4V (2S) LiPo - 500mA USB balance charger included. What I like on this car: - Very grippy, soft off road tires - Very good steering with no dead zone around the center position and very little backlash - Brass pinion, steel bevel gears - All gears are covered - Steel driveshafts & CVD - Extreme articulation, perfect for extreme off-roading - The steering trim pots (dual rate & center position) - Proper self tapping screws are used for plastic parts - Spare shock included - Long run time of about 20 minutes / 1km - Spare parts are available here: http://www.wl-toys.com/Subotech-BG1515-RC-Car-Spare-Parts-Subotech-BG1515-RC-Truck-Spare-Parts-Accessories-813-1385-1399-1.htm What not: - The packaging says hydraulic shock absorbers, but unfortunately only the spare shock has a top seal and oil inside. This is a no go! - The packaging also says fast and slow gear mode. But there is no 2 speed transmission. Just two motor RPM limits (bind button) - Cheap plastics - There is a slipper clutch, but it does not work in stock condition The fix is easy, though. - Very slow, but OK for a crawler. All in all it’s a good and big (for 1/12 scale) rock bouncer. If you want to buy one, you can find the link and discount coupons above.
