Behold the Vanquish VRD Carbon, now transformed into a crawling beast by the AMain Hobbies crew. With the addition of liquid gravity in the skid plate, this truck gains weight and stability, making it feel like a cheater on the rocks. Adjustments to the shock pivot ball and raising the shocks lower the chassis, enhancing its crawling prowess. Upgrades like the stubby conversion kit, mid-profile servo, J Concepts Warlord body, and Mega lithics tires mounted on Vanquish wheels elevate this machine to new heights.
As the VRD Carbon tackles the rugged terrain, its grippy tires, lower center of gravity, and smooth motor control shine through. The truck's planted feel and stability are unmatched, thanks to the added weight and lower chassis height. It effortlessly maneuvers through obstacles, rarely getting stuck, showcasing exceptional motor control and wheel speed. The team is impressed by its ability to resist rollovers and maintain stability even in challenging situations.
The VRD Carbon's performance on the rocks is exceptional, with the added weight and lower center of gravity contributing to its stability. The truck's smooth motor control and grippy tires allow it to navigate rough terrain with ease, showcasing its crawling capabilities. Despite minimal modifications, the team considers this crawler to be the best they have ever driven, with potential for further enhancements.
