FTX Sidewinder RTR 1/8 Electric Brushless Single Seater RC Buggy.
Take to the dunes with the awesome FTX sidewinder 2wd 1/8th Single seat
buggy. Inspired by the full size vehicles that blast through the deserts
of California, the FTX Sidewinder provides you with a mix of scale
looks and modern r/c technology to create a package that not only looks
great but also performs like it looks.
Factory assembled and 99% ready-to-run with a 2.4ghz radio system, the
Sidewinder includes an 11.1v 3S LiPo battery and powerful 2750kv
brushless motor and splash proof brushless speed control to provide
exciting straight-line speeds.
The monocoque aluminium chassis is the solid foundation for the wide
track double wishbone long travel suspension to operate from, with each
corner being handled by CNC machined aluminium oil filled shock
absorbers. Unlike other similar models on the market, the FTX Sidewinder
features a mid-motor transmission design where the motor is not hanging
off the back of the vehicle but is housed more centrally and out of
view. This provides more balanced handling on most medium to high
traction surfaces and seriously adds to the scale appearance with no
motor placement interrupting the roll cage when viewed from the rear.
The ball raced, sealed gearbox features heavy-duty aluminium gears and
adjustable oil filled geared differential. An adjustable slipper helps
provide protection for the transmission and acceleration tuning.
Scale beadloc style wheels are standard front and rear making a change
to the optional Sand Paddle tyres a simple process should you wish to
hit the dunes.
Once you are out in the field enjoying your Sidewinder you donΆt even
have to loose much time on battery changes, with the bottom loading
battery hatch letting you switch to a fresh pack in seconds, hassle
free. Fast, agile 2wd semi-scale single seat off road…just how it should
be!
