BEEZRC FMS 1/24 Scale FCX24 Power Wagon 4WD RC Rock Crawler

The BEEZRC FMS 1/24 FCX24 Power Wagon 4WD Ready to Run replicates the 1949 Dodge Power Wagon in a compact RC crawler. Featuring a high-torque brushed motor, two-speed transmission, and portal axles, it delivers precise control for navigating rocks, mud, or indoor obstacles. With a 2.4GHz 3-channel radio and a pre-painted body, this off-road RC car suits enthusiasts seeking scale realism and versatile performance.

Performance

The FCX24 Power Wagon is powered by a high-torque brushed motor with a 104:1 final drive ratio, paired with a two-speed transmission for low-speed crawling or higher-speed trail running, reaching up to 8 km/h. The 4WD system and portal axles provide increased ground clearance and torque, ensuring smooth navigation over uneven terrain. The multi-link suspension with realistic drive axles enhances articulation, while 24 ball bearings reduce friction for efficient power transfer. Steering precision is reliable, though some users note occasional servo lag during tight maneuvers, which can be mitigated with upgrades. The soft tires offer excellent grip, but may wear on abrasive surfaces over time.,

Design and Features

The officially licensed 1949 Dodge Power Wagon body features a detailed red polystyrene shell with a quick-release design for easy access. The nylon-integrated frame ensures durability, while the scale details, like the etched grille and hood supports, enhance realism. LED headlights and taillights improve visibility for low-light crawling, though the lighting system lacks side markers for full effect. The portal axles and metal gear servo add robustness, but the lightweight chassis may tip on steep inclines without added weights. Extensive aftermarket support, including brass upgrades, allows customization for enhanced performance. The electronics are not fully waterproof, requiring caution in wet conditions.,

Ease of Use and Maintenance

The 2.4GHz 3-channel radio offers proportional control and a 30-meter range, suitable for beginners and experienced users, with no interference in multi-vehicle settings. The included 7.4V 380mAh LiPo battery provides 15–20 minutes of runtime, with a USB charger for 60–90-minute charging. The Ready to Run package includes all essentials, though the small transmitter may feel cramped for some. Maintenance is straightforward with a modular design, but small screws may strip with frequent handling, and the servo may require occasional calibration for optimal performance.,

Special Notes: This is a Ready to Run model, fully assembled with a pre-painted red Dodge Power Wagon body, LED lights, and a 7.4V 380mAh LiPo battery with USB charger included. Suitable for beginners with proportional controls, while advanced users can add aftermarket parts like brass links or tires for enhanced crawling.
