Marauder 1/5 30cc Petrol Radio Controlled Desert Truck RTR

Product Review (submitted on 26 April 2016):

This was my first petrol 1/5
It's great fun and goes for ages. Pros of course is that it's petrol and as long as you have some to put in it it will go and do until the batteries run out, which I haven't had any problems with. Gets up to just under 40mph on grass and faster if you tune it etc. The car to self is built a to a fairly high standard that said the pull start did fall to bits in the first 2 weeks.
Cons- the transmitter is cheap! Also had to get it repaired from the off and use a different one until I get it sorted by nitrotek.
The lights are a good little extra but they are in danger of being damaged very early I broke two in the second roll. That being said they still work and iv moved them inside the roll cage and move so they are pretty protected now.

I did install the 4wd convention kit and it's made a big difference. The kit was easy to do but does take a while.


All in all its a great car for the price a few upgrades and it's worth it.
