My Thoughts – Monster TrucksLosi LST 3XL E Monster Truck

RC monster trucks can give you some really exciting times. “I” love running all my RC’s and have had some really fun times with them. However, The time I have spent running my monster trucks has brought me so much more excitement and thrills. These trucks run on 6s power and out of the box they will run 50+mph. “I” jump and launch the trucks in the air 6-8 feet high and a distance of 10-13 feet and they just keep going.

My short course trucks and off-road desert trucks with lots of upgrades, Can not handle this jump without breaking. They are fast and handle great. They just are not as durable as an RC monster truck.

    1. Hello Colleen,
      All of them would do well at the beach. For never owning one and not wanting to powerful of a truck, I’d say the Traxxas Skully monster truck would be a great fit.
