With an 11" wheelbase, it's a hair bigger than a Traxxas Stampede. It does look like a neat truck. I don't know anything about the brand though.

Until recently drift cars were their thing. They added a trail truck and this monster truck.

MST makes some very high-quality kits and RTR. They are leaders in the drifter market and they make 3 different trail/scaler rigs that are all very very nice.

The monster truck looks a bit on the small side compared to others, but as far as quality I would expect nothing less than BAD A$$

here some specs

i guess they choose a 280mm wheelbase to fit all the body on the market

but tires would have to be like 130/1400mm diameter in my opinion

I just built one of their CFX-W kits. Honestly, one of the better kits I have built. The manual was really nice. The majority of plastic parts were taken off their molding trees and cleaned up. The plastics feel very strong and there isn't any obvious weak points. The holes in plastic that screws thread into were also really nice. Some kits it takes some force to get a screw to start threading into the plastic, these just went in with very little effort and I didn't have any problems with them stripping out.

I have broken 2 parts, but they were both my fault(I let a six year old drive it, and she ran into a parked car). I also have 1 shock that is leaking fluid pretty badly, but I already had new rc4wd shocks ready to go on to get more articulation.

I know people that had their drift cars and they always had nothing to say but good things about them. Only real problem is parts availability. Amain is carrying their parts, but they often don't have stock so I have to order from asiatees.

Did anyone ever buy one? The trucks seems to be out of stock most places. Is it that popular?
