The RGT Challenger EX86170 looks amazing on paper. An 8channel radio (7 in use, 1 available) controls a host of features: 2speed transmission, DIG, Winch and Lights. Front features 6.6% overdrive and there's metal where you want it, and plastic where you don't.

It's a thoughtfully designed machine. Heavy, yes, but tough enough to take a beating. It'll be a fun trail machine, but the question we have is how well will it crawl?

Let's test!

Note: after publishing, I realised that the 20 second intro to this video was taking away from the focus of the main content (the RGT Challenger). The intro gave a sneak peak of the various RCs we'll be looking at over the next few months. If the early comments about all the cars have you wondering, now you know what they were referring to: I've trimmed the intro from the start of the video, hoping to keep the focus on the RGT EX86170 itself. If you wanted to see it, you can still find that trimmed reel on my IG (@rctrailandtech).
