Traxxas 98044-1-BLK – TRX-4MT Ford F-150 1/18 Monster Truck RTR – Black
1/18 scale 4WD solid-axle monster truck with licensed 1979 Ford® F-150® hard body, factory long arm lift kit with eight shocks and Terra Groove tires. Ready-To-Race® with TQ™ 2.4 GHz radio, 7.4 V 750 mAh 2-cell LiPo battery with iD® and 2-amp USB charger.
TRX-4MT™ is the monster truck version of the 1/18 scale TRX-4M platform. A factory-installed long arm lift kit with eight shocks and large Terra Groove tires on chrome deep-dish wheels raise the ground clearance by 88 % for an authentic monster truck stance, while the steel ladder frame and solid steel axles give real all-terrain capability. The licensed 1979 Ford® F-150® hard body is molded in color and fitted with LED headlights. This version comes in Black.
TRX-4MT is rated skill level 1 and no previous RC experience is required. The 2S LiPo battery gives over an hour of driving per charge and is charged with the included USB charger, so only four AA batteries for the transmitter and a USB power source are needed. The compact size makes it easy to take along anywhere.
