#Radient reaktor brushless review full#
Like plastic main gears in tranny, where the kit upgrades you to full steel gearing. rtr its just showing the differnet changes. Would I pay retail? Certainly not.īeginner or not, there are much better entry/mid level rc out there that just wipe the floor with the vattera range. So yes I can give a honest opinion without wasting my money buying one, would I buy one? Of course for the right money. Parts support is still poor compared to it's rivals too. I was even contemplating buying a halix monster truck but alas, it seems to have disappeared as quickly as it came. That's not including the toy like rims and diff covers too. The twin hammers was a great idea executed poorly, the ascender is not comp legal out of the box and the body is far too big for the wheels, looks like a shopping trolley. The 1/10 on road shells are very detailed (not to tamiyas level) I must be seen to be in this "band wagon" then.Īctually had a good poke around the hammers, ascender, v100 touring car and in all fairness they do have some quite decent ideas, Most just jump on the 'vaterra hate bandwagon' without even seeing one in the flesh. This is the kit version with a secondary GENRIGHT decal livery used on genright trucks in the king of the hammers off road race.īut i can show more photos later in the second part where we start to talk about the model itself as a machine to purchase and any problems Well lets throw wheels on and the body cageĪnd when your all done with painting you can end up with something like this model. Lets have a look at a gearbox once built and a selection of images showing the truck taking shape.įront diff all built, gearbox installed and the rear battery tray added.your rtr version would have gone through this processĪnd here is what you finish with, just add the wheels and the body your truck is done. Your rtr version will come with two metal main gears but the rest will be plastic. each large bag makes up a section of the truck.īag a was the whole main two speed, yes thats right TWO SPEED gearbox, will full metal gears. i mean LOTS of bags, maybe LOTS and LOTS of bags. Thats not all, being a kit there are lots of bags. Thats a bit small for a built truck you may be thinking and you are right, this is a kit version. It has huge big tyres to crawl over rocks and wrap around them, making this truck also able to crawl things. when you pick it up it feels meaty and heavy'ish but not overly. do not worry i have plenty of pictures for you all to look at to.īut its a medium sized truck with a medium feel weight to it. The twin hammers is a 1/10th scale radio control desert type off road buggy and rock racer. This is my Honest And none bias review of the twin hammers by vaterra. I have owned and built up several rc kit version models over my time. My name is Paul aka Tami to most on the forum, and i have been into the rc hobby for many many moons.
