Team Energy has developed an all new 1/8 scale racing chassis. This machine is built solid and sturdy to handle tough terrain while its suspension and controls handle like a precision F1 race car. This is a ready to run monster truck that you can take to jumps for big thrills or take it to a track for top level racing competition. The R8MT electric powered monster truck has everything that a basher or racer would want packed into an amazing radio controlled racing vehicle.

The Team Energy R8MT has a long list of performance parts, making for the best and lightest 1/8 scale monster truck on the scene. To start off, the R8MT has a full 3mm thick 6061 hard anodized aluminum chassis. The new narrower chassis and side-guards shed weight compared to other buggies while allowing optimized weight distribution of the electronics mounting for improved overall handling.

The R8MT also has fresh designed suspension arms featuring centerline shock mounts and an optimized anti-roll bar position. The new suspension arms were designed to work with the aluminum low center of gravity shock towers to improve and optimize the suspension geometry, making the R8MT more plush and forgiving in rougher terrain. 18mm Big Bore long travel aluminum and threaded oil filled shocks also help the monster truck achieve maximum control over any terrain.

The drive train is also equipped with beefed up metal differentials and thick axle cups. Thick drive axles reach out to the wheel hubs with CVD joints in the front and traditional dog-bone style setup in the rear. There are no bushings on this vehicle, every rotating piece is treated with high quality sealed ball bearings for low drag and maximum rolling and rotating efficiency. Thick chassis braces mounted in strategic high leverage points ensure your hard jumps and landings do not warp or bend the chassis.

At both ends of the monster truck, the R8MT has everything you'd expect from an all-out competition kit, including thick anodized aluminum steering link with ackerman adjustment, adjustable roll center, thick adjustable turnbuckle links, aligned king pin and universal joint pivots, sway bars front and rear, steel adjustable turnbuckles, and adjustable shock mounting positions. There are tons of adjustment that can allow you to tune this monster truck any way you want it handle. The factory settings are awesome straight out of the box for a wide range of running situations.

The R8MT is a brushless powered monster truck which means instant power unlike its nitro powered counterparts that require revving up an internal combustion engine. The power is ready to rock and roll on tap! Dual 7.4v 4000mah battery discharges its juice into a 100amp waterproof speed controller. Spinning all that power is a 3674 2400kv high torque brushless motor. This setup tortures the pavement and dirt and makes wonderful dirt rooster tails.

All of the latest Team Energy kits are now fitted with a comfortable and feature-packed Dimension GT3X 2.4GHz radio system for supreme control and confidence. The radio features a pistol-grip design with 3 channel functionality, easy carry handle, fold-down antenna, end point adjustments, servo reversing, steering and throttle dual rates, steering and throttle exponential adjustments, and even channel mixing. It's also extremely lightweight due to it requiring only four AA batteries. The radio prevents frequency conflicts automatically and changes channels if there is any interference. You'll have professional-level control in one easy ready to run package.

The Team Energy R8MT is a seriously awesome package. Elevate your monster truck game to the next level with the new R8MT ready to run kit, and drive what the winners drive!
