HobbyPlus CR18P Rock Van EVO ( Yellow )
Lets see where to start, portals, two gears, neutral, lights, lights with functional control from the remote, a remote with a bunch of functions, good tires with foams, inexpensive, nice swing away body, and actually astonishingly capable. With the body and the bumpers, I did not count on good crawling ability, but stock, it crawls better than a stock TRX4M defender. This was my first Hobby Plus vehicle but will not be my last. Between Hobby Plus and FMS I cannot foresee buying an SCX24 or TRX4M in the future until they step it up two or three notches. One thing to note, be careful if you put one inch wheels and tires on the Roc Van, they are likely to rub significantly on the portals. The Van comes with 1.2 inch tires and if you take a look at the stock set up, you can see why. Also note, the Van does have friction shocks, but for the price and the other functions, how can one complain?
Very nice out of the box
Love the van! Added some wheels and tires for extra weight and changed out the shocks and it made a huge difference. Very fun to drive
So I’ve wanted the Rock Van for awhile and when the EVO came out with the two speed transmission then I was sold. Bought a clear body earlier and had a REPAINT of the Old Skool Monster Truck from the 80s. ROLLIN THUNDER! Added some chrome too! Can’t wait to put some Furitek stuff in it too!!!
