Hobby Plus Speck-SCT 1/24 Short Course Trucks
The folks at Hobby Plus are diving even deeper into small-scale go-fast machines with the release of their Speck-SCT 1/24 Short Course Truck. Joining the Speck-B Buggy, this new small-scale short course truck looks like it will be a great addition for fans of compact and speedy radio-controlled trucks.
Built for durability and performance, the Speck-SCT features an aluminum chassis with a metal outdrive and dog-bone shafts. The transmission features a blend of plastic and metal gears along with a sealed, 3-gear differential.
There are two versions of the Speck-SCT to choose from: a brushed model and a brushless version. The brushed model is powered by a 37T brushed motor, while the brushless model features an 8000kV brushless power plant.
