It's pretty darn good. the front end is a bit tougher than the STX's, and there are fewer moving parts, and I'm ALWAYS a fan of fewer moving parts.

???? If you're asking if they come with all the radio controls.. Yes.. All the Redcat models are "ready to run" Just need batteries, fuel and a glow ignitor as bare minimums.

Yes they are, the stx trucks come with 120mm tire diameter and the sv & sv pro come with a 130mm tire diameter and a different tread pattern than the stx.

Heres the answer I posted to this same question in the FAQ thread.
How many times are you going to ask the same question? How many different threads have you posted this same question? The Volcano comes with a radio system installed. It works just fine for me. Go buy a Spektrum DX 2 channel for about the same as you spent on the truck. I'm pretty sure thats a good radio. Please from now on look around like Bluecaka said. AND if you have a question you can't find an answer too just ask it ONCE!

Redcat.com is the only place you're gonna get them if you can. They might not even have them. Brand new model.
Just so everyone knows.. both the front And rear diffs are stripped in the Volcano! LOL I was running it tonite and I thought the spur was stripping out like always..but when I stopped to check the spur is hanging in there! You outta here the cliccking and grinding going on!! I had shimmed the rear diff to try and make it last till parts arrrive( it was slipping bad) but I guess it didn't work. I had front wheel drive now I have NO wheel drive! Ha Ha... Now all my cars are broken! The Savage needs chassis plates and a pullstarter, The Volcano needs new ring and pinions front and back and the Tornado needs and engine and a trans that can last 4 tanks of fuel!! HA HA HA....

rbuck1501,

The manual is mostly the same. Only difference is the steering setup (Ball joint type)
Everything else is the same.

We've set up the manual for the Sv and Pro if you still need it here: http://www.topspeedtoys.com/index.ph...roducts_id=294
