Radio Control Car Racer – May 2018

REVIEWS
THE LATEST THRASH TESTS.
24 FTX OUTBACK 2 TREKA
Updated for the new year, FTX’s new Outback 2 model features
a wider track, improved suspension articulation and a revised
specification. Available in a range of body options, all come
Ready-To-Run with a 1500mAH NiMH battery in the box meaning
it’s a short time away from the local trail as we found out.
36 TEAM ASSOCIATED B6 CLUB RACER
Take one of the most popular 2WD off-road kits, add some Reedy
electronics and wrap it up with attractive pricing for even greater
appeal. Team Associated’s new Club Racer comes ready to build
and with a 17.5T motor, speed controller and servo included, all
you need to do is add a radio set, battery, charger, wheels and
tyres and you are ready to race.
46 LOSI TENACITY SCT
Based on the popular Ten chassis, the Tenacity SCT is one tough
platform that is capable of 50mph with ease. To make sure it
is all done safely, it comes with Spektrum’s AVC control and a
waterproof Dynamite power package. Shaun Taylor gets his hands
on the RTR, trying out all the features including the FPV mount for
a new type of driving!
56 TAMIYA T3-01 DANCING RIDER
Since the news of the Dancing Rider broke, there was huge
interest in the new T3-01 chassis and its unique design with
its three-wheels and leaning body. John Weston was the lucky
contributor who got to build the self-righting chassis and of course
take it out for a spin.
