Today on RCDriver_Online, we dive into the world of two-wheel drive monster trucks with the FMS F100 High Roller. This beast features a licensed Ford body, massive monster truck tires, and a powerful Lio battery pack. The truck's design pays homage to the 40th-anniversary edition of David Mingle's 1985 high roller, complete with a chrome grill and roll bar. The in-house designed platform boasts a mid-motor setup, high CG style chassis, and robust suspension with oil-filled coilover shocks and aluminum brace plates.
Under the hood, the FMS F100 High Roller packs a punch with a 15 kg Metal Gear digital Sero, 2s 3300 milliamp lipo battery, and a 550 14 turn can motor. The truck's performance shines in a sandpit, effortlessly handling bumps, rocks, and jumps with precision steering and ample traction. Despite its two-wheel drive configuration, the FMS F100 High Roller remains stable even without the wheelie bar, making it an ideal choice for beginners looking to tear up the off-road terrain.
As the day unfolds, the FMS F100 High Roller proves its durability with a solid transmission, slipper clutch, and sturdy arms that can withstand the rigors of intense off-road action. The team cautions enthusiasts to monitor the motor temperature when running a 3s pack for optimal performance. Looking ahead, RCDriver_Online anticipates FMS to make waves in the RC world, thanks to the F100 High Roller's exceptional value, scale detail, and licensing.
