New circuitry, new color case and a much more powerful BEC which eliminates the need for a receiver and servo battery pack, drawing higher voltage from the battery and sending the power to your receiver and servos.

RC4WD Rockbull 1/8 scale competition crawler

I wont pretend to know anything about Rock crawling but seemingly many people have said that the super size crawler is a ‘thing of the past’ or has ‘died. Crawling specialists RC4WD have never given up on this class and have been working to bring new items like tires, wheels and axles to the super class community and now they have a complete super class kit. Introducing the new Rockbull 1/8 scale competition crawler kit, the first competition super class crawler with pendulum weighted adjustable beadlock wheels, Rok Lok 4.0 tires and advanced alloy Super Bully axle. This definitely looks like a serious piece of equipment.
