FS Racing Victory Monster Truck Review Being a bash oriented website, we always welcome the chance to beat on a good monster truck. The last few weeks we’ve gotten the chance to test the FS Racing Victory, an affordable 1/10 scale 4wd. How does it hold up? Does it have enough power? Has does it handle the rough stuff? Primary Competition: Vaterra Halix, Traxxas Stampede 4×4, the ECX Ruckus 4wd, Helion Invictus 10MT, ect. What’s Needed To Complete: We just needed to come up with 8 AA batteries to get our Victory test truck in motion.

Build Quality: After a good hard look over the truck, we didn’t find any loose screws or leaking shocks, but we did find a lot of play in both the front and rear ends. Also, both the speedo and receiver box were laying loose inside the truck as their double sided tape had broken loose during shipping. Test Drivers: Iron Mikeee, Robbie G, T-$$$, and yours truly. Test Venues: Our friendly local CostCo parking lot, a local cul-de-sac, St Louis Dirtburners 8th scale track, and Minnie Ha Ha park in Fenton Missouri. Set-up Notes: We ran the Victory bone stock.

We left on the stock Tamiya connector and even used the included pack a bunch. We did skip the included charger in favor of a Hitec X1 Pro. Lastly, we occasionally ran the truck on a Duratrax Onyx 2S 5000 LiPo for more pep.

Turning: Oversteer is the name of the game with the Victory. On high grip surfaces the rear gets enough traction to not get too squirrelly, but on dusty/low-bite surfaces the front likes to stay planted while the rear slides out of control. We removed the pre-load spacers from the rear shocks and popped them on the front, this tended to help make the truck steer more neutrally. Interestingly, the truck comes with a really slow servo (albeit one with enough torque) and a marshmallow soft servo saver, yet it manages to still oversteer. Jumping: With shocks a bit on the bouncy side and not much grunt out of the motor, don’t expect a lot of airtime from the Victory.

Once you do get airborne the truck is very responsive, perhaps too responsive, to trigger input. Take offs are generally quite straight and the truck tends to jump level, but landings can be rough with the lightly damped shocks. Bumps/Whoops: The Victory comes with shock oil that is a bit too light in both the front and rear shocks. This results in a truck that likes to bounce over rough ground instead of hunkering down and plowing through. Small bumps are easily overlooked by its large sized tires, but when the going starts getting real rough the truck tends to dart all over the place.

On-Road: First off, the Victory doesn’t traction roll, which of course is a great thing. Having to walk over and marshal a truck that traction rolls all the time is a pain in the rear. However, with very little power on tap the truck doesn’t offer a whole lot of excitement when driven on pavement. Grass: With big tires and 4wd the Victory should be a beast in grass, but its low output power system really holds it back. Yes, it can get around in short grass, but anything taller and it simply runs out of power. Tires: The stock tires are a very hard compound that should literally last for the life of the truck. While we found their forward bite to be decent on a variety of surfaces, they had little in the way of side-bite, resulting in low corner speeds.
