MST CMX J3 RTR Scale Rock Crawler


The MST CMX RTR is a scale truck designed to deliver a balance of scale performance and incredibly realistic looks. With features that include heavy duty steel CVA front driveshafts and 40° of steering angle, combined with 4 link suspension and a forward mounted battery, the CMX is a scale rig that can hang with the big boys. Read on to discover why the CMX is a great option for both new crawlers looking to have fun on the trail, as well as experienced enthusiasts looking for a platform for their next project.

A water resistant electronics system combines the XB60 ESC, with the M54-26T motor for a balance of smooth low speed control and top speed that is necessary for technical trails. The electronics package is rounded out with a waterproof SC-0252MG metal gear steering servo and a water resistant receiver box that helps to keep things dry in harsh conditions. The system is compatible with 2-3S LiPo batteries and is easily programmed by simply swapping the position of the pin jumpers on the ESC. 

The MST J3 body is included to finish off the package. With molded scale details like snorkel, tube bumper, rear view mirrors, roof rack and light buckets, this great looking body brings the short wheelbase rig to life with a package that offers great performance and realistic looks.

Picked this up while it was on sale and I have zero regrets! It’s set up for more scale trail driving, so don’t expect it to be a crawling machine unless you make some minor changes.

The ESC and Motor setup is pretty fast so it’s hard to modulate at low speeds. That’s nothing a Hobbywing BL1080 can’t fix. After I swapped the ESC, it was a completely different rig. The suspension articulates well and the stock tires have adequate grip. I can’t say enough about how nice the body is.

I’ll likely change the 26 turn motor for something a bit slower. Overall, I’m happy with the purchase.

Great rc right of the box, have put it to the test in crawling and some muddy hills, it does really well. The tires are not that aggressive so they fill with mud easily. That was taken care of by installing some new rc4wd mud slingers. Also put on some internal sprung springs because why not. Electronics seem to do pretty well. Decent throttle control. Overall a great crawler would recommend. Running on a 3s lipo they're pretty fast as well.

Beautiful cute little buggers! I bought two, one for me & one for the wife. And she drives it!! lol
Quite capable for their smaller wheelbase & width - they articulate well. The wife's will stay stock and I will mod mine.
Looks to be well built by MST, everything works good. I set steering endpoints for tighter turning.
Great looking body and tires, and the shocks feel smooth.
Amain ran a killer sale on these and I took advantage of it. Great deal IMO.
Fun driving r/c's! Thanks Amain!
