Lao rog1 Gladiator Review: 1/14 Scale Brushless Monster Truck Unboxing

Today on Aussie RC Playground, we unbox the Lao rog1 Gladiator, a 1/14 scale beast that promises to deliver thrills and spills in equal measure. With a brushless motor, 45A ESC, and 2200 3S battery, this monster truck is ready to tear up the track with a claimed top speed of 100 km/h. The radio may be a bit budget-friendly with its limited 150m range, but the truck itself looks promising with LED lights, sturdy wheelie bar, and an aluminum chassis that screams durability.

Taking a closer look, the rog1 boasts adjustable steering links, shock towers, and camber links, along with sticky tires and adjustable shocks for optimal performance. While the body may feel a bit flimsy, a bit of reinforcement could go a long way in ensuring it stands up to the rigors of off-road bashing. The inclusion of a slipper clutch, sway bars, and hex hardware further enhances the truck's appeal, promising a customizable and robust driving experience.

With its striking red color scheme and promising design, the Lao rog1 has the potential to be a real contender in the world of small-scale monster trucks. Despite some minor drawbacks like the limited radio range and flimsy body, the truck's overall build quality and performance features make it a compelling option for RC enthusiasts looking for a budget-friendly yet thrilling ride. Stay tuned to Aussie RC Playground for more exciting unboxings and reviews as we put the Lao rog1 through its paces to see if it truly lives up to its Gladiator namesake.
