Incorporating feedback from owners of previous models, the EVO Pro is a model that excels in both indoor and outdoor environments. The design features a new Low-CG Concept chassis frame design, with revised shock mounting geometry to best optimize the benefits of newly designed big bore, oil-filled adjustable dampers. The SOA (servo-on-axle) setup has been delivered the intended increase in steering response to better leverage the benefits of the new super-sticky, oversize tires. Weight bias has been optimized and power uncompromised with a 280-size big block brushed motor, with enhanced driveshafts to best use the increased torque.
A combination of waterproof electronics and LiPo power deliver over 30 minutes of runtime per charge, while internal beadlock wheels secure a soft-compound tire for impressive grip on a wide variety of surfaces and obstacles. The low slung body design assures clearance in the narrowest canyons.

Enjoying the 2 speed transmission for being able to trail ride as well. If modifying isn’t your thing and you’re just trying to have a little fun crawling this is the rig to get. Beware, this could ruin future purchases as others require a lot more modifications to get the same abilities.

MotionRC processed my order quickly and it shipped out FAST. This has so much going for it; portal axles, 2-speed transmission, oil shocks, big motor, long wheelbase, 1.2" wheels/tires, and an aluminum LGC chassis. Even the transmitter provides a 2-way indicator of the truck's battery level! This tiny truck does NOT disappoint. Here's a more in-depth review: https://youtu.be/Z_7YEsD4VMc
