Are you looking to build the biggest and baddest remote control truck ? Do
you not care if you can beat your opponent in a race as long as you can run them
over at the finish line?
If you answered YES, then it sounds like you're a prime candidate for the
monster remote control truck hobby. These arent your run of the mill pickup
trucks, and they arent really designed for the speed demons out there. These are
the bone crushing, terrain mastering trucks built for durability and gearhead
massiveness!
A fully assembled RC truck can come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes.
They are as individual as the people who design them. If you're looking for an
RC truck and want to spend more time on the road than in the shop, you'll
definitely find them at either the Red Rocket Hobbies store above or with the
good folks online at TrendTimes.com. Many of these come with a fully equipped
chassis with everything buttoned up tight to weather the dirt and grime you will
no doubt put your radio control truck through.
And did I mention really big tires? In most of the monster remote control
truck models Ive seen, if you can see the details of the truck body then the
tires just arent big enough:) Oh yeah, and you may want a truck body to put over
the components, although Im convinced this is more to keep dirt out then to
actually add to the look of the model. Don't worry, all these parts are
available from the same suppliers above.
If you don't yet have a monster RC truck and you're wondering what the appeal
is, these vehicles are designed for off road areas, and some even do stunts and
tricks such as riding over other vehicles and turning themselves upright after a
rollover.
Unlike many of their model car cousins, an RC truck is less about racing and
more about maneuverability. They can be fun and challenging for all ages, and
many people find them as much fun to build as they are to drive.
As far as radio control vehicles go, a monster remote control truck is really
in a class by itself and if you'r looking for a challenge beyond an RC truck
that goes really fast in a straight line, you may want to check out the
excitement of monster trucks!
