FTX BANZAI 4WD RTR 1/10 BRUSHED DRIFT CAR 2.4GHZ/WATERPROOF

Take to the streets with FTX’s new Banzai drift chassis. Modeled around the hugely popular FTX Vantage and Carnage platform, the Banzai brings Japanese drift styling to the entry level Ready-To-Run arena.

Featuring a 4wd shaft driven design with front and rear metal-geared differentials, the Banzai is 99% complete from the box. Blue anodized aluminium components add a little style to the chassis along with the functionality of oil filled adjustable shock absorbers, front CVA universal driveshafts, ball bearings, adjustable suspension turnbuckles for tuning and a centre drive slipper to protect the transmission.

A waterproof electronic speed control, servo and receiver allow for use in a wide range of conditions and the 2.4ghz radio provides interference free signal no matter where you are.

Topped off and finished with an S15 style pre-printed drift body and a hard compound drift tyre on scale finish wheels, the Banzai is the perfect introduction to sideways street action!

What would be the quickest motor and esc combo that would run on a 3s 11.1v battery??
Micah James Patten / 15th November 2023

This is about the quickest 3s system TRX3350R

Steve @ Wheelspin Models
what's the top speed?
Alex / 5th September 2023

Speeds are not quoted on drift cars as they spin the wheels constantly so do not grip enough to produce high speeds.

Steve @ Wheelspin Models
Hello I am trying to get this car up to 70mph I have upgraded to brushless 3s Lipo system also upgraded the pinion to 34t should I convert it rwd for higher top speed and could you recommend me on road racing Tyres for banzai. Many thanks
Leo Steed / 22nd June 2023

4wd will be faster and better at putting power down , tyre wise we would use these SCH-RU0569 or these SCH-JR-34RY

Steve @ Wheelspin Models
can you change the wheels for rubber ones on this car?
Afjkdl / 9th September 2022

Yes, they are just a standard touring car wheel with 12mm hex fitment, so a wide variety of wheels and tyres are available.

Si @ Wheelspin Models
Hi guys would a 2s lipo be alright in this with the adapter?
Matthew / 26th July 2022

Yes you can run a 7.4v however just be aware it can cause excess wear on the stock electonics. 

Frank @ Wheelspin Models
