Oh boy – I can see it now! Vaterra is brewing up a Chevy vs. Ford war with the release of the 1972 Ford Bronco on their popular Ascender platform.
The Bronco rolls on a shortened steel, c-channel chassis – a full 3 3/4″ shorter than the Blazer. It includes the same, single-speed metal-geared transmission, crawler style bumpers and heavy duty CVDs.
To control it’s crawler RTR form, the Bronco includes a Dynamite 540 brushed motor, waterproof ESC and is controlled by a Spektrum DX2E 2-channel radio system.
