Check out our latest Axial Yeti Rock Racer Review in a full on first test outdoors running 2S Lipo. SUBSCRIBE & HIT THE BELL - http://www.youtube.com/c/DriftomaniacsRC?sub_confirmation=1 Here's a great alternative to the Yeti (deceased) - https://www.banggood.com/custlink/m3KDlMqakc Get the 6ch Radio Transmitter & Receiver We Now Use Here - https://www.banggood.com/custlink/mD33VJz8zU It's got a built in Gyro, ABS Braking, and a 500M Range For Under $30!  I hammer it up and down the dry riverbed, and then show what it can do over grass.
Note this is an Axial Yeti kit. You fit your own radio, motor, esc etc.

This particular Axial Yeti Rock Racer is running a Traxxas Velineon 3500kV motor and in this rock racer test it's on 2S as it is its very first run outdoors.

The kit is fairly good to build BUT it's maybe not an ideal first kit as it's not easy in places as some screws could be better labeled by Axial. This would be simple to fix.

The Axial Yeti Rock Racer is one of the most fun cars I've ever driven, the yeti's top speed isn't huge but it's not bad. However even with 2S full on acceleration is brutally fast, aided by that locked rear diff. 
It soaks up bumps, rocks and boulders uphill or downhill with ease. You can steer it easily on the throttle and drift it around turns.
If you love it and want RC gear like this Call F&M Hobbies on (973) 361-0042  or email them on [email protected]
