Crawler DEFENDER 1/8 4WD

The DEFENDER is a high-end 1/8 scale RC crawler, inspired by the legendary Land Rover Defender. It features a blue body, impressive size (680 mm, 5.4 kg), and is designed for realistic rock crawling, roots, bridges, and uneven terrain.

Under the hood: 3970 2000 KV sensored FOC brushless motor, 80 A FOC ESC adjustable via Bluetooth app, 2-speed transmission (slow / fast) and front + rear differentials with remote locking. The result: monstrous torque at low speeds for overcoming obstacles, and 30 km/h in fast mode with a 3S battery.

Important: this model comes without battery or charger. It is compatible with 2S to 3S LiPo batteries, to be purchased separately depending on the desired driving mode.
