FMS 1/10 FCX10 OVR LC80: The Brushless Trail King Has Arrived
FMS 1/10 FCX10 OVR LC80: The Brushless Trail King Has Arrived
The Toyota Land Cruiser LC80 is an off-road icon, and FMS has just raised the bar with the new OVR LC80 RS Brushless edition. A collaboration with OVRmag, this rig sits at the intersection of extreme scale realism and professional-grade performance. If you are looking for a crawler that handles as good as it looks, this is the one to watch.
Pure Torque: The Brushless Outrunner System
The standout feature of the "RS" version is the factory-installed 3541-KV1200 brushless outrunner motor. Unlike standard brushed motors, an outrunner setup provides incredible linear torque at low RPMs. This allows for "snail-pace" crawling with surgical precision, eliminating the jerky movements often found in entry-level rigs.
Motor: High-torque 3541-KV1200 Outrunner.
ESC: SL50A Brushless (2S-3S LiPo compatible).
Transmission: Metal-geared 2-speed gearbox for high-speed trailing or low-speed technical climbing.
FCX10 Chassis: Precision Engineering
Built on the proven FCX10 platform, this LC80 is a serious trail machine:
Portal Axles: Providing massive ground clearance (up to 76mm), ensuring you don’t get hung up on centre obstacles.
Remote Locking Differentials: From the MG11 transmitter, you can lock or unlock front and rear diffs on the fly to adapt to the terrain.
Advanced Suspension: Oil-filled aluminium shocks and a refined 4-link geometry keep the Batrazzi Precipice M/T tyres planted on the rocks.
OVRmag Scale Authenticity
This co-branded edition features a premium finish and an incredible interior:
Magnetic Lighting System: No more messy wires. The body connects via magnetic pins to power the LED headlights, roof spotlights, and indicators.
Detailed Interior: Features a full dashboard, steering wheel, and a driver figure for maximum scale immersion.
Ready-to-Run (RTR): Comes fully assembled with the 11-channel MG11 radio system, ready for the trails.
