Version Info: This vehicle is delivered as “RTR” but requires the additional purchase of 4 (four) AAA alkaline batteries for the transmitter.

The FMS FCX24 Power Wagon 1/24 Scale 4WD Crawler RTR from Motion RC is a new, innovative option in small-scale RC crawlers, offering several features that are brand-new to the category! An ideal choice for both indoor and outdoor scale adventure, the high-performance chassis utilizes high-strength nylon instead of the traditional trapezoidal beam design with metal rails for lighter weight and improved durability. A mid-mounted power system contains a servo-controlled 2-speed transmission, transfer case, and 130-sized motor for a lower CG and enhanced climbing performance. The 2-speed transmission allows drivers to conveniently switch on the fly between a crawling ratio (99:1) or high-speed ratio (24.75:1) directly from the transmitter. Of course, a vehicle of this caliber is delivered with 24 stainless steel, aerospace-quality ball bearings as standard equipment. No plastic or metal bushings here!

Perhaps the most innovative feature of the FCX24 are portal axles that provide additional torque, overall performance, and improved approach and departure angles. The included 4 channel 2.4 GHz pistol-grip transmitter also provides LED headlight control, voltage cutoff settings, or select from four options of drag brake settings for the ultimate small-scale crawling experience.

The injection-molded polystyrene body shell evokes styling cues from late 1940’s-era mud trucks, and is attractively painted in your choice of red, yellow, or blue. An injection-molded nylon rear cage with included spare wheel and tire allows for infinite customization and personalization opportunities with the addition of various bed, tarp, or cover options (available separately).

Enjoy the next small thing in radio control by combining the versatile, go-anywhere fun of FMS FCX24 Power Wagon Red 1/24 Scale 4WD Crawler with Motion RC’s industry-leading customer service and product support for a package that cannot be beat!

Portal Axles

The use of portal axles allows for additional reduction of FDR (final drive ratio) and delivers enhanced ground clearance for unsurpassed crawling ability.

Composite Chassis and Links

The strong but lightweight chassis rails and links are complimented by heavy-duty steel CVD-style drive shafts for durability and optimized torque transfer.

Combination Receiver/ESC

The full-featured RX/ESC unit contains additional ports to allow users to add taillights, fog lights, and turn signals in addition to the included headlight LED lamps. The ESC is user-programmable to tailor acceleration, hold, and brake forces toward a crawling or rock racing setup.

Metal-Geared Steering Servo

The FCX24 contains a best-in-category metal-geared steering servo that allows you to traverse, crawl, climb, or race with confidence!
