Maverick RC's reputation for affordable fun continues with the hugely impressive iON DT! This 1/18th scale desert style racing truck gives you the thrilling excitement of much larger RC trucks in a package that fits in the palm of your hand! Waterproof electronics, 4WD grip and large off-road tires mean you can turn anywhere you go into your own RC playground!

The Maverick iON range also features all-new electronics, and lead the way with fantastic top-spec features: a Maverick Element 1200mAh Ni-MH battery with a universal charger, MTX-248 2.GHz radio and a 2-in-1 waterproof MSRS-248 receiver/speed controller. Impressive top speed and acceleration is provided by the 370-size motor for outstanding fun and racing action!

The motor fitted in the Maverick iON DT is the reliable MM-28 370-size motor, so drivers can keep having fun for hours and hours! The 4WD drivetrain uses ball bearings throughout to give drivers maximum runtime and efficiency, and features a molded gear cover to keep dirt and debris away from the gears. Front and rear gear differentials easily transfer the motor's power to durable driveshafts and finally to the grippy rubber wheels at all four corners. 

A strong shaft drivetrain and sealed gear differentials get the power to the ground through all four wheels for amazing stability and handling. Sharing many of the same parts as other vehicles in the iON range, the iON DT is fitted with a racing pick-up truck body with a large rear spoiler for added traction. Treaded rubber tires provide grip and control, aided by oil-filled shock absorbers.

  • MSRS-248 2-in-1 Waterproof 2.4 GHz receiver/ESC

Easy to break anything in the front of the car and parts are impossible to find just yet. I would not buy until there are parts available in the US.
