New FTX Apache, 3s Brushless, box opening and real world review!
I didn’t know what to expect from this entry level Trophy Truck, usually when I get a new rig I’ll go over everything and make sure all bolts are tight and everything working as it should… This time I decided to do a real world test and review by opening the box on location, fitting the battery and just seeing what we can expect from FTX straight out of the box!
Nothing could have prepared me for what I was about to experience!! This little Trophy Truck is absolutely amazing…. With tons of power, great suspension and fantastic handling right out of the box, this has to be one of my most favourite driving experiences with any RTR vehicle without any modifications.
The Apache comes 99% ready to run, supplied with a 3s Lipo battery, Lipo charger and Lipo charging sack… All you need to add are 4 AA batteries for the transmitter. With a RRP of £289.99 it’s definitely high up on my top 10 list of must have cars so far this year!
Make sure to stick around to the end of the video for a head to head drag race against a Arrma Typhon 3s BLX
If you fancy your chances at WINNING the actual truck featured in this video, live in the UK or Ireland, then head over to my new website “Random Competitions” and grab yourself a ticket, with limited entries available, guaranteed draw (regardless of how many sell) and a competition that runs for no longer than a week, you’d be mad not to have a go!
Remember, if yer not in, ya can’t win!

Just found this rc channel. Love it. Just good honest stuff. Some of other bigger channels not so honest.

Thanks buddy, I buy everything myself, I’m not tied to anyone so no benefit to me to big something up that doesn’t deserve it 😃

I have the original version of this, it was originally the helion domius, they went bust a good while ago

Wasn’t sure what they were based on, regardless of them being cheap, they are great fun 😃 Thanks for the info

Was great fun, would like to see a bash spot full of these ripping around a makeshift track!! 🤣

And yes as other comment, why did not apache get a centre diff like zorro. Surely a later car with improvements should have had one.

I’d say purely to keep the cost down. But I honestly really liked the way it handled, very predictable (although it was icy with zero grip, so hard to judge)

It's a shame they didn't put a centre diff in it, like the later brushless Zorro, but it doesn't seem to affect the handling at all. Looks great, and goes the same. I'm still waiting for someone to try putting the Apache shell on a Zorro, as I'd like to put a new one on my Zorro. 😎👍🏻

The lack of a centre differential doesn’t seem to bother it, especially not for bashing around, I had an absolute blast with it 😃
