IMPORTANT - Please note the instructions and box of these models say they are 1/10th scale BUT they are actually 1/9th scale. If you check the dimensions you will see they are 1/9th scale and bigger than 1/10th scale models. This is just a printing mistake and this can be verified by contacting the manufacturers directly. The Circuit Thrash is a large American style 2 wheel drive 1/9th scale monster truck that is a lot of fun. The 2WD setup with high power motor and battery means that the monster truck can perform wheelies with ease and it has been fitted with an adjustable wheelie bar. The battery is a bigger 2500MAH for more power and longer run times which, along with the 50A electronic speed controller and 540 motor, create the large amount of torque needed to pop wheelies. The long independent suspension giving the big ground clearance is fully adjustable and the motor is mounted above the rear differential to allow for a slimmer lighter chassis with the battery in the middle for better handling while performing wheelies. Last but not least the ciRCuit thrash has working LED front lights for a bit of night time fun as well as a Japanese specially designed pre-cut American style truck shell making it look as good as it performs. On top of all of the features above, the RC monster truck has ball bearings throughout for extra durability and speed. The metal diff gears and metal transmission gears are manufactured using the latest powder metallurgy method and are ready to take more power if you wish to upgrade it in the future. There is a slipper clutch system to help protect the gears during fast acceleration and a high torque steering servo with metal gears is used to stop servo crunching in extreme off road conditions. The radio equipment has also been upgraded to a wheel type 2.4GHz transmitter and receiver. This has many advantages over AM/FM transmitters; no need for fiddling with crystals, range virtually as you can see, no interference from fellow drivers and the best of them all a much more responsive precision steering! The model comes fully assembled and ready to run so all you need is 4 xAAA batteries for the radio equipment. This model will suit a wide range of users from beginner to wheelie fun seeking pros, all you need is a bit of clear road and you can be showing off your wheelie skills! And just in case you go a wheelie too far we stock all the parts you may need as well as a range of upgrades.

POWERFUL 540 MOTORA fast 540 hobby grade motor that has enough torque to perform wheelies.
