The Monster Truck, otherwise referred to as the 'Basher' category, has grown in popularity over many generations. With a pickup truck body mounted on a tough chassis and large diameter tyres, monster trucks, including R/C model versions, are built to go anywhere from the badlands to stadium courses. Now the Mad Wagon VE puts a unique style on a brute R/C machine! The completely new KB10 4WD chassis design is compatible with 3S (11.1V) high-power lithium polymer (LiPo) batteries and features a newly developed brushless motor and speed controller as standard. Delivering an optimal balance of high-speed and power, the aluminium main chassis of the KB10 combines front/rear blocks incorporating a split frame and double wishbone suspension to drive the all-terrain 2.8” wheels and tyres. As the tyre size is compatible with standard wheels, you can vary specifications to suit the type of road surface and conditions. In addition, drivetrain parts are shared with the 1/8 scale Inferno NEO ST 3.0, providing more than enough capacity for a 1/10 scale machine. The original 1980's style van body design is produced in 'Ultra Scale' realism. While the body included in the kit is pre-painted, you could create your own custom body colouring design with a clear body, as well as elevating the realism with the optional LED light unit (No.97054-4B). The Mad Wagon VE is packaged as a pre-assembled Readyset and requires only batteries for the chassis and charger to get up and running. A wide range of optional parts are available to expand and extend your enjoyment of the R/C car hobby.
Key Features
The aluminium main chassis combines with the superior pitch rigidity of the vertical resin frame to create a high-strength structure that delivers optimal balance of high rigidity and suppleness.
Based on 1980's era van styling, this newly designed body is made from durable polycarbonate and finished with paint scheme and decals applied. A separately moulded grille and light parts enhance the realism of this “Ultra Scale Body”.
Includes newly developed TORX 10L brushless motor. With 38mm diameter and long 68mm specifications, the motor produces 2850Kv (rotations per volt) and efficiently converts power from the 3S LiPo battery into speed and torque.
Equipped with BRAINZ 10+ waterproof ESC (speed controller) that boasts 80A capacity. Top mounted cooling fan manages heat generation to reduce power loss even with extended running times.
Features the KS5031-91MW servo with 9kg / cm of torque and all-metal gears, promises reliable steering control.
Features battery holder suitable for mounting 3S LiPo battery. By offsetting the left side mount of the battery, left-right weight balance can be set to the driver's preference. Also, compatible with 2S LiPo battery.
Newly designed oil shocks on front and rear suspension deliver smooth shock absorber function. Change suspension settings by installing optional springs to suit a wide range of running conditions and surfaces.
Features the 4-bevel differential gear from the Inferno NEO ST 3.0 1/8 scale buggy. With more than enough capacity to handle the high-power drive unit, the design also allows easy diff gear replacement for superior maintenance efficiency.
Newly designed slipper clutch effectively protects the drive system from excessive power loads. Aluminium shoe delivers optimal slip characteristics and improved acceleration.
