By far my favorite of all the newer vehicles today are the monster trucks as I am not a racer but rather an abuser. I recently completed building this one & had a chance to drive it earlier this week. I'm currently running a Mamba Monster motor & esc but I have a Tekin RX8 gen 2 combo that will be going in soon. I've only run it on 6s at this point & all can say is,
WOW! 3 standing back flips with the mash of the throttle landing back on all 4 wheels, AMAZING!!
I know this isn't vintage but if you are looking into monster trucks capable of insane speeds and aerial maneuvers consider one of these.
It's that good.

Re: Tekno MT410 stunt truck
It definitely raises the age old question of what constitutes an R/C monster truck? I'd say certainly not just putting large tires on something. To me a monster truck has to have at least one straight axle but preferably two.

Re: Tekno MT410 stunt truck
You are correct sir,This is more of a truggy with large wheels and a short wheelbase. Whereas a cold buster would be more of a traditional monster truck. There are just too many sizes and models now I guess . So blanket terms are being used to classify the various vehicles and this one happens to fall into the "monster truck" category when you search for it.
I'll just call it a "MONSTER" because at times I really am afraid of it...
