The new M117 Lloyd polycarbonate body by JConcepts has a military side and once detailed (with included distressed stars, JConcepts logos, headlight and grille) and is versatile enough to top the best rock crowlers in the market.
The new FTX Texan rock crawler is clearly inspired by the classic pick-ups from the 1940’s and 50’s and blends old school retro looks with the latest in RC crawler chassis design. This RTR features no body clips or posts, with a magnetic fixing at the front and hinged rear for smooth, uncluttered scale looks and easy, quick chassis access. Underneath the Texan features a low profile, cantilever rear shock absorber set-up to provide the platform for a flatbed rear assembly.
Molded internal wheel arch lining and side floors add further scale realism to the the FTX Texan, along with beadlock wheels and dust cap.

Element RC is ready to drop the CR12 Tioga Trail Truck with a new livery. This small 4×4 rig is an RTR that comes with Reedy Power electronics and meets S.O.R.R.C.A. class 1 and 2 rules right out of the box. Just charge it and you’re ready to hit the trails!
The steel ladder frame chassis of the CR12 Tioga Trail Truck provides the perfect backbone for this rugged rig. The 4-link suspension, threaded shocks, and soft rubber tires give the grip and performance needed to climb over the roughest terrain.
Element RC has released the new Enduro Gatekeeper kit. The model is packed full of performance features designed for the serious RC rock crawler enthusiasts. The Enduro Gatekeeper is built on the stamped steel C-channel Enduro chassis and retains the same awesome features with the addition of several Factory Team parts, hard plastic components and machined steel pivot balls.
The all-new Gatekeeper Suspension package (GKSTM)! This package consists of rear trailing arms that move the shocks forward, allowing a larger window for shock tuning and providing improved weight bias. The trailing arms are paired with a rear anti-roll bar for a more stable and consistent suspension when crawling on the rocks.
The Hong Kong based Kingmax have introduced the RGB01S: a new high torque brushless crawler servo designed for 1/10th to 1/8th scale RC crawlers and trucks. This beastpushes over 48Kg/cm of stump-pulling torque at 7.4V with 0.11 speed, easily strong enough to move heavy 2.2 tires.
Reedy have released the SC480X ESC & Program Card designed for trail truck and crawler enthusiasts. Excellent forward/reverse/brake feel, a wide range of adjustability, and robust hardware make the SC480X suitable for both trail truck and crawler applications. The pre-programmed default settings work very well in most situations, but if you want access to additional settings for fine-tuning, you can do so using optional Program Card.
