The World's First 1/24 Climbing Rock Crawler with Two-speed Transmission - Power Wagon FCX24S

FCX24S meticulously designed by FMS team will redefine the small scale climbing rc car. As the first product of the FCX24S series, the car body is the POWER WAGON in 1949, which appeared in the form of a mud off-road truck. It is positioned as a high-performance crawler chassis. The carframe is made of high-strength nylon. Compared with the trapezoidal beam spliced by metal side beams and plastic trusses, the overall weight is lighter and the strength is higher. The mid-mounted power assembly has a low center of gravity and integrates the 2-speed transmission, transfer case and 130 motor. The power is transmitted to the front and rear axles through the universal joint drive shaft. The axles are equipped with wheel side reducers, commonly known as "portal axle", which can increase the ground clearance of the differential tooth pack and improve the passability.

The Perfect Scale Micro RC Plane for Beginners

The North American T-28 Trojan was a military trainer aircraft introduced in the 1950s, used by the U.S. Air Force and Navy to prepare pilots for jet-powered flight. Known for its durability, handling, and versatility, it even served in combat roles during conflicts like the Vietnam War. Its iconic radial-engine and tricycle landing gear made it a recognizable and beloved aircraft for generations of pilots.

Meet the FMS 410mm T-28 Trojan—a compact, beginner-friendly RC plane inspired by the legendary North American trainer aircraft. Designed with first-time pilots in mind, it blends classic scale looks with modern tech to make learning to fly smooth, fun, and frustration-free. With a powerful 1020 motor, tricycle landing gear, and lightweight yet tough EPP foam construction, this Ready-to-Fly (RTF) aircraft includes everything you need right out of the box—plus a multi-mode gyro, heading-hold-return feature, and one-key stunts for confidence-boosting flights every time.
