Bug Crusher Electric Radio Controlled Truck
 

DESCRIPTION
Nitrotek Bug Crusher- 1/10th Scale Electric Radio Controlled Monster Truck

If you are ready to take the electric rc hobby to the next level with a proper rc monster truck then this is the model to go for. No longer do you have to pay hundreds of pounds if you want a fully built model that features all the technology of any top spec truck.


Available with Blue or Purple shell

This is a high spec model that not only is high quality and pro built but is also highly upgradeable. This model is not to be confused with the entry level rc cars, this is a proper rc hobby racing machine! Aluminium centre drive shaft, high spec electronic speed control, aluminium capped oil filled shocks, performance differentials, aluminium radio tray and much more, the Bug Crusher is in a league of it's own.

As standard the Bug Crusher comes with a high precision 540 motor, HSP speed controller and 7.2V 1800mah Tamiya type battery pack. This setup gives more than enough power and speed for any serious racer but if you are the kind of person that likes to take things to the extreme then you can upgrade your model with a brushless kit. With the brushless motor, ESC and Li-po battery the truck will go ridiculously quick and will take some real skill to control. You can add these upgrades at the bottom but please note they will not come fitted so you will need to fit yourself. The upgrade kit contains 1 x high power brushless motor, 1 x brushless ESC, 1 x 11.1V 2200mah LiPo battery and 1 x LiPo battery charger.

We have had our Nitrotek models kited out with traditional stick type controllers instead of the pistol type that come with a lot of models. This is a personal choice of what you are more comfortable with.

AMAZING

craig hinchliffe - 02nd February 2010

First off the bad things: The pics of the bug crusher are wrong it does not say bug crusher on the side and the metal parts are purple not blue!

stratmast3r - 21st December 2009

I've had many RC cars now. My first monster truck was a Maverick, exactly the same to this one and its very durable. I used it on skateboarding ramps-no broken bits, i used it in mud-a bit slower but fine,i used it in sand-still functions perfectly and th...

Bug Crusher

Tony Garlick - 08th December 2009

Bought this truck and very, very pleased with how it goes and the build quality. Its stood up to a fair amount of abuse and may get a 2nd one for my sons birthday. We went for a spare battery which is needed to allow a good run time though I guess a bigge...

Bug Crusher

Vini - 14th October 2009

Good truck and well worth the money you pay for it...

The only down side is the battery takes more than 7 hours to charge, works well as an overnight charger...
