- 7 months hard crawling and still going strong Review by The Green Man (update 7 months on)
UPDATE - 7 MONTHS ON....Price Quality Fun Factor Delivery Speed
Bought this 7 months ago and it is great fun. I've taken it up Kinder Scout (6 miles) several times on 3x 4000mAh Lipos.It's been through 10 foot snowdrifts and through streams. I've replaced a few bits but nothing too major. The 50T/15T diff gears are difficult to get and can loose a tooth if you really bash it. I've got through 2 already!! I use it VERY hard. It has fallen down 20 foot rock faces and has rolled down hills on many occasions. I don't expect to not break bits (30 years RC experience). I've added a 1/10 land rover extreme bodyshell and it looks superb. It has got me so into rock crawling that I have now bought and made a GMade R1 which is even better (but a lot more expensive and smaller) and I am starting to look at 1/5th Killer Krawlers... I create fun amongst walkers wherever I go crawling. I drive the HSP everywhere I go walking then get the R1 off my rucksack when I get to juicy rocks. Derbyshire is absolutely full of juicy rocks...
This is a very capable and robust crawler. I can't recommend it highly enough. (Posted on 06/12/2013)- super rc Review by vincent

Great car, very big and heavy would recommend to anyone. (Posted on 21/04/2013)Price Quality Fun Factor Delivery Speed - Beast . . . Review by The Green Man
After much research I just couldn't resist a 1/8 scale crawler over a 1/10 scale. The size difference is huge. This 1/8 crawler will go over large logs where 1/10 will be too small to get started on it. Most competitive crawling is with 1/10 and it is easier to find suitable courses in a smaller scale. Even so the massive size is just so much fun. I now see courses everywhere I go !! There are some upgrades that are worth doing to make it better:Fun Factor Price Quality Delivery Speed
Cheap 4 wheel steer - the crawler almost has 4ws already - all you need: 98021 servo plate, 98022 servo mounts, 98010 steering link (only sold in sets of 2), suitable servo (3kg or more, £10ish), Y splitter receiver cable (to connect 2 servos to the single channel), a servo reverser (to make the front servo act as normal but to reverse the rear servo to get the opposite wheel direction from front to back), some cable ties. I Ebayed for a Y cable and signal reverse . . .
Tyres are worth upgrading - google for recommendations (about £25 for a set of 4 with foams). The more grip from the tyres the better you will crawl. Soft memory foam is essential for maximum deformation at contact points.
Wheel weights - it is worth adding weights to at least the front wheels. It really helps with getting up steep inclines.
I've also added alloy side arms.
You'll also need to drastically trim the bodyshell to keep it clear at all possible positions. It needs loads cutting from it to make it truly fit.
I would suggest a 7.4V Lipo 2S 30C 5000mAh battery. ESC copes fine and you get an eternity of runtimes with decent grunt. May be worth upgrading motors at some point.
I now take this everywhere I go walking as there is always an amazing rock that just must be conquered !! I just put a shoulder strap on it. Pretty heavy but not too bad.
I love this machine. Great price and customer service from Nitrotek. Very impressed. Buy one.
