Default FG Competition Monster-Truck 4WD

FG Competition Monster-Truck 4WD
The FG Monster models have convinced through optics and their huge size. The new 4WD Competition models primarily convince through their riding quality. These models are equipped with the new FG 4-wheel drive; this means: maximum drive power and therefore highest fun factor on every ground and in almost every curve.
As a FG Competition model, this car is delivered in kit form with mounting instruction. The body shell is made of clear polycarbonate for your own painting. Stickers such as headlights and letterings are included.

For the final assembly of the models you'll need the following additional items:
radio control system (transmitter, receiver), 2 steering servos ( approx. 150 Ncm / each), at least 1 throttle/brake servo (approx. 150 Ncm, 2 servos required with hydraulic brakes), batteries and charger.

Equipment:
Angled 4mm alloy chassis, belt drive, casings to cover the belt, alloy differential gear at front and rear axle with hardened bevel gearwheels, alloy front axle housing, rear alloy axle mounts and alloy wishbones at front and rear axle, alloy ball joints, adjustable turnbuckles at the track rods and at the front and rear wishbones, front alloy uprights, case-hardened steel pinions and spur gears, rear FG ball drive, front FG ball drive with cardan outer joints, adjustable alloy servo saver, 4 large-volume oil-pressure shock absorbers, hydraulic disk brake or cable activated Tuning disk brake at the front and rear wheels (depending on your choice), 26 cm³ engine, alloy engine mounts, 3-chamber tuned pipe, ready-for-use oiled OR air filter, radio plate, receiver box, unpainted clear body shell.

The model is equipped with a powerful 26 cm³ combustion engine with ready-for-use oiled air filter. The engine runs with normal 2-stroke petrol-oil mixture (available at every petrol station). The tank capacity of 0,7 litres enables you to run your model for about 45 minutes. With the installed pull-start system the engine can be started without any difficulties.

Wow, at 2600 for the truck thats a bit expensive. But probably worth it. Is there a price for the 4wd coversion kit?

Hi guys, if you think about it, the cost of the conversion must be about £1,200 because the monster truck its self is £650.00 and the new 4WD truck is £1,800 ,so i see it like this, it would be cheaper to buy everything seperate and i can not see FG loosing money, so to pay that sort of money for a conversion kit is crazy.[:@]

A conversion would be nice for those of us who already have FG MTs, but this FG 4x4 stuff seems to be coming along at a snails pace anyway.
