But the top-tier RC rock crawlers undergo development testing almost as vigorous as that of any full-size off-road vehicle. The Ravine is ready navigate the tightest and steepest terrain you can throw at it with it’s multi M. The 550 electric motor is efficient and powerful; the suspension, driveshafts, steering servo, chassis, and axles are all heavy duty and metal.

If you want to see how your machine gets on in a set course against others, jump onto Facebook and see what groups are local to you.There is oil in the dampers but the chassis and shell are so light that it just bounces off the floor when dropped from 12 inches up. one thing I will say though, ftx brought scale crawling to the masses knocking out their line of entry level scale crawlers, they made a market for them to which carisma (already made some decent stuff) walked in and snapped up the market.

Like, the FTX Outback 2, the Ravine is great for beginners because of its ease of use and value, but doesn’t skimp on quality. There’s no question that its relative value made it all the more impressive; but even so, the angles of articulation, the steering modes, the amazing approach angles, these all came together in harmonic unison to allow the Ravine to dance up and down the gnarly slope until the battery ran flat. Nope, can't get the steering hub carriers off as the drive shafts coming out of the diff casing have pressed in metal pins for the PLASTIC STEERING DRIVE CUPS. The on/off switch is actually soft neoprene or something, you have to squidge in and hold it to switch it. The ground clearance is so-so at 45mm, but the massive articulation makes clambering over the uneven ground a doddle.There are four different sizes of ballraces in the spares selection and I've already seen the inner/outer drive hub ones, so the others must be at the inboard end of the drive shafts and in the gearbox. In a clearing where paths crossed and many boots had stirred up a quagmire, the Ravine chased its tail with the steering mode set to front and rear opposite lock.
