In this episode of Roadside RC, we delve into the world of the ZD Racing 1/12 scale four-wheel-drive brushless buggy. Troy, the man behind the wheel at Roadside RC, takes us on a journey through unboxing and testing this compact yet powerful machine. As the buggy emerges from its packaging, we are greeted with essential accessories like a paintbrush, USB charger, manual, and a punchy 2200 3s LiPo battery. The standard Dumbo RC controller sets the stage for some serious off-road action, complete with steering and throttle trims for optimal control.
Upon closer inspection, the ZD Racing BX12 reveals a host of features, including adjustable oil-filled shocks, metal shock Towers, and a zippy 3600 KV brushless motor. But what really catches Troy's eye is the striking resemblance between the BX12 and the RLO X12S. It seems like these buggies share more than just a few components, hinting at a common design lineage that transcends brand boundaries. Despite the familiar DNA, the ZD Racing BX12 proves to be a robust and speedy performer, showcasing its mettle on the track.
As Troy puts the ZD Racing BX12 through its paces, the buggy shines in terms of durability and speed, handling gnarly crashes and high jumps with ease. The widespread adoption of this buggy by various companies ensures easy access to spare parts, making it a practical choice for enthusiasts. With a keen eye on affordability, the ZD Racing BX12 offers a cost-effective option for those seeking four-wheel-drive fun without breaking the bank. Before hitting the buy button, however, it's essential to consider the terrain you'll be tackling, as the buggy's smaller size may pose challenges in rougher environments. So buckle up, grab your controller, and get ready to experience the thrill of the ZD Racing BX12 on and off the track.
