Overview
The BlackZon Smyter DB Turbo (540256) is a fully assembled Ready-to-Run 1/12 scale 4WD electric desert buggy powered by a 3S-capable brushless motor and ESC. Built for serious bashing, the Smyter Turbo combines high-speed brushless performance with a stout 4WD chassis ready to take on dirt, grass, and rough terrain.
The Turbo edition steps up the standard Smyter with a brushless powerplant rated for 3S LiPo batteries, delivering significantly stronger acceleration and higher top speeds along with the long service life and minimal maintenance of brushless drivetrains. Oil-filled shocks, aluminum-capped chassis components, and aggressive desert buggy-style tires keep the truck planted through jumps and rough landings. The blue bodyshell adds bold scale style.
An ideal step-up RTR for hobbyists ready to move past entry-level performance and a well-balanced platform for backyard bashing, park sessions, and dirt-lot driving.
