Are CHEAP RC Crawlers Worth the Money?

Показать описание

I spend almost 12 months testing this Cheap RC Crawler. The FTX Outback Fury 2.0. A lot of people tell me they are Junk... well who was right? Me or you?

Outside the UK. Search RGT EX86100 V2 (Same as the Fury 2.0)

It's too easy for us guys to forget how much effort you have to put in to make brilliant videos like this. Thank you Phil!

I randomly stumbled across you around 18 months ago and your reviews and enthusiasm got this middle aged bloke into RC. Here I am, 9 cars later (3 of them FTX!) and my new hobby brings me so much joy. Thank you mate 😊

As someone who always, tries to get the most performance and fun out of cheap rigs, I appreciate this video very much! As I see far too much of the "throw money at the problem" solutions alot of people seem to make in the RC hobby, when it's not really even necessary, while they look/talk down to those who enjoy cheaper rigs.

Thank you!

I own 4 FTX models and I have 0 complaints about any of them. We're not all made of money so we need good budget models for our hobby. I don't own a crawler yet but when I do buy one it will be an FTX.

What a great truck, and now with the small motor upgrade even more capable.

You really did hammer it at EAST 23.

So glad you won the Strip and Clean. The event raised £2, 500 for a mens mental health charity.

Thankyou so much for the shoutout, so glad i got that footage !

(There is a playlist coming out soon of my 6 videos from the event if people are interested in finding out more about it)

No rc is ever perfect that’s what makes this hobby so great but if it puts a smile on your face then it’s perfect

Bought my 6yr old son the ftx hi-rock last Christmas been very abused on 3s only.
All that's broke so far is 1 Motor, pinion and spur.
He has treated it like a submarine, a basher and lastly a crawler, am more than impressed with it, and have just ordered the ftx trekka and will also buy the ftx fury eventually.

I bought a Fury 2.0 as my first crawler after watching your earlier videos on it and it’s awesome nice one Tomley RC

I am still running my fury 2.0, with a few mods like 1080 and better motor, but its soon to get a 76 Ford F-150 shell if all goes to plan, the fury is a great platform, nothing has failed at all on far

Found a unit that people were down on, ran it 'til it died, fixed it up, and now it wants to run more.

If I were an emotional man, I'd make a comparison to successfully rescuing an unwanted puppy.

But that would be silly and emotional so I won't

3:59 What you can do is put some sort of lube on both bearings and it will fix or extend the life of your motor. I did a video on this a long time ago. I got 5 years of use out of my Titan 550 in my 4tec 2.0 before the bearings got so bad that you could see physical movement in the bearing. I don’t know how bad those motor bearings are, but it is a quick cheap fix for that!

At 9:10 that was amazing footage of running through the mud, can't believe this is a budget crawler, looks and drives like all the others

Was great to experience that raffle in person.. was just meant to be 😂! My RGT is still going strong with the same motor and electronics from new. Great video Phil.

Great budget crawler! But sounds like the same noisy gearbox as the RGT models... 😊

Speaking from experience.
I've got an FTX Fury, used it for almost 2.5 years now, and I've absolutely abused it, rolled it countless times and the only things that really "broke" were the rear diffs got slack and the spur gear shredded. This is more than likely user error because I did abuse the hell out of it. I'd highly advise getting a brushless system like the hobbywing fusion and a cheap Chinese metal gearbox from Ali express

TLDR: very very good cheap crawler and rarely breaks.
