The advantages of monster trucks on RC off-road vehicles

If you want the biggest and the most evil remote controlled car, then the RC Monster Truck is definitely for you!

Equipped with large tires and top-line motors, RC Monster Trucks can be scratched and grabbed from almost any terrain with their great power.

Although RC monster trucks can drive on asphalt and dirt, they absolutely perform well when climbing, screaming through sand pits and firing rocks.

Thanks to their low gear ratio and traction four-wheel drive, the RC Monster Truck can handle any terrain.

Usually offered in 1 / 10th or 1 / 8th scale, these RC beasts are often able to reach speeds in excess of 30 miles per hour.

Equipped with powerful nitro or electric motors, they are almost as threatening as real things, let alone oversized shock absorbers, designed to support their amazing performance.

Like most remote-controlled vehicles, the RC Monster Truck is available in nitro and electric versions. Nitro models are faster, but they need to be refueled.

On the other hand, electric models can only run for up to 20 minutes before needing to be charged. However, the same is true for RC 4WD and other remotely controlled vehicles.

Since they set RC monster trucks may not be ideal if you are just looking for a high-end track performer, but enthusiasts craving for a true off-road experience and high-quality all-round performance will not go wrong with RC trucks.

Usually beginners (even those with more RC experience!) Find themselves torn and try to choose between an RC monster truck or RC Buggy.

To help you make this decision more easily, read on to learn about some of the more specific advantages of RC Monster Trucks over RC Buggies.

RC Monster Truck can be used almost anywhere

One of the biggest attractions of RC monster trucks is that they are monster trucks! RC Monster Truck is a beast-like machine that can play and stomp in almost any environment.

In fact, due to their greater power and higher ground clearance, RC monster trucks like the HPI Racing 105502 Mini Recon 2.4 RTR truck can successfully handle a wider range of environments than off-road vehicles.

Although off-road vehicles may excel at monster trucks or more elaborate environments on the race track, monster trucks can confidently handle increasingly diverse and challenging environments that they dare not try to conquer.

Jumping is not a challenge for RC monster trucks

Who doesn’t like the idea of jumping up and down, soaring in the air, seemingly eternal, then gently landing on the ground and walking away to tell the story?

Well, if you are like most people, you may never have experienced such a rush. RC Monster Truck can help you meet your needs for high-altitude flight maneuvers. For example, for an RC monster truck like Traxxas RTR 1/10 Monster T-Maxx 3.3 4WD, you can jump in any way you want!

This crazy RC monster truck is more than just a toy. Instead, it is designed and set up for some serious jumping and shredding actions.

Although off-road vehicles are getting lower and lower and often lack the correct suspension settings, Monster Trucks have the correct technical settings, large wheels and ground clearance for softer and less damage from large jumps.

Some RC trucks are also equipped with two shocks per wheel to add extra power.

Kids love monster trucks

Admittedly, RC SUVs are fun, but many people think that the wider range of features offered by Monster Trucks will only make them more interesting.

After all, there is nothing better than tossing some nitro in a monster truck, and it feels irritating after the stimulus, because it swept through the dirt, spit out the habitat and jumped out of the jump.

Although many people like these modern off-road miracles, kids especially love monster trucks because they are more forgiving and versatile in driving in a variety of environments.

They can also better lick and continue ticking instead of carriages.

For example, models like the Maisto R / C Rock Crawler are cheap, have huge oversized wheels and tires, and can handle anything that is thrown out.

Most importantly, there are many similar models designed for the thrills children seek.

Monster truck can drive in reverse

If you’ve driven a remote-controlled car before, then you know how frustrating it must be to run into your off-road vehicle and pick it up whenever you accidentally hit it against a wall, rock, or anything else.

At first it may not seem like a big deal, but after so many times, you will soon realize that you only need to press the button.

Unlike four-wheel drive vehicles that are not configured to provide reverse by default, nitro-powered monster trucks like the Traxxas RTR 1/10 Monster Revo 3.3 4WD Monster Truck usually always have this capability.

Nitro Monster Trucks runs longer

The Nitro RC monster truck not only has larger wheels and tires, but also a larger fuel tank. This usually means longer running time between refills compared to small nitro cars.

For example, the Team Associated 20501 1/8 MGT 4.60 Special Edition RTR has a fuel capacity of 150cc, which is far more than a small nitro RC car.
