  • Today we are doing much needed testing with the CEN F-450. Putting her through her paces and seeing what we need to upgrade to make her the ultimate RC tow rig! I really hope you guys enjoy and be sure to stick around for an interesting ending.

    What a fantastic addition. That gooseneck trailer is awesome. An RC version of a F450 hotshotter. That’s got to be equivalent to a 30K lbs load on a real 450! Get more close up wheel and shock action when the truck is fully loaded. You had some great footage.

      Yes unfortunately they sometimes come with malfunctions from the factory. The electronics in the truck are known to not be the best. But thankfully there are plenty of easy upgrades to do that will change the truck for the better! Please send us an email to qcrchobbies@gmail.com and we may have a solution for you! and we'll be happy to go into detail and send you some very good recommendations as well as support with anything you all need present and future.
