I don't think it's supposed to be any of the 1 : 1 brands, I don't think any of those brands using double linkage for the bucket, but to me it looks like a mix between a liebherr and a Volvo. And it should be about the same size as the wa500 from Fumotec I think.

Will be interesting to see more of it.

Well, from what I have seen in the video, they are having problems with the front drive. Seems the drive for the front tires does not want to work some times. You'll see it in the beginning when he first backs up - rear tires dig a hole, fronts are not driving, you can see both front tires, so I know it's not just a differential thing. You know something's up because he stopped for a second too, for no reason. Watch again carefully and you'll see other times the front drive isn't working, a slight jerkiness to the movement, probably why he's going so slow too. As said, those axles aren't going to last long either pushing 5" plus tires!!

I'll pass!!!

its still a differential axle without locking. that is why sometimes left wheel is not turning as the differential gear had transfer the turning to right side wheel. will one the taiwanese had post some work sheet. the rim hub are built in planetary gearer system cause the slow travel. however, i think itself do not have enough weight to press itself grip to the earth.

It's on the RC4WD site, but listed as "Out of Stock".

It "looks" good. I like that it is big and heavy too. Hopefully having planetary axles will help keep those center sections together cause they sure look small between those tires...
