1/5th Scale Truck. Anyone interested?


       Remove this ad - become a site supporter!
I was recently in China checking out some trade shows. I found this 1/5th scale truck which might be a copy of the FireHammer from Duratrax or even the same factory that makes these. Would anyone be interested in these? I know I can get these up here allot cheaper then what you can purchase the Firehammer for locally. Most of the parts are interchangeable as I could see from the parts list of the Firehammer. These will come RTR with radio all you need is batteries and fuel ( unleaded gas which is allot less expensive then nitro) with 2 cycle oil. I have imported a sample and will test it for durability before deciding to bring them in. If response is good I consider to import them. Here are the specs please PM me if you have any questions I'll take more detailed pictures with the body off when I get a chance and post them.

the engine parameters say 23 cc and other discription is 26 cc ???
also i think its a smartech Bigfoot or xtm Grizzly or another clone !
How much for these ? can you get them NOT RTR ?
Also if you say the parts are the same as the firehammer then 90% of the FG Marder parts would work as well ..
Good Luck you'll have a hoot with it after you upgrade a few things ..

I'll email the factory to clarify the size of the motor. Sorry the radio will come standard with these. These guys won't discount the price so we're better taking the radio and selling it off if we don't need them.

The disc brake is the same on the Firehammer check #17 here is the link to the site I don't think you would want this separately I know there's the Hydraulic system out there that works well and can be added to any FG or 1/5th scale

I think the only 1/6 scale that comes stock with front discs are the FG Competiton versions of their Truck/Hummer/Jeep/Monster Beetle. And it's not cheap. Around $3000 for the truck without radio and servos. But, it's got just about every option in the FG catalog except for the 2 speed and pipe (if you buy the Stadium version, as it doesn't fit under the stock body)

Basically, what I wrote off in that huge crash a few months ago...
