FMS Land Rover Series II 1/12 Scale 4WD Brushed Rock Crawler Ready-to-Run Licensed Scale SUV

Buy on Fair RC

The FMS Land Rover Series II is a 1/12 scale RC rock crawler that faithfully recreates one of the most recognizable classic off-road vehicles ever built. Combining detailed scale realism with hobby-grade crawling performance, it is designed for trail driving, obstacle courses, and outdoor adventures. Its larger 1/12 scale allows for impressive body detail while remaining compact enough for backyard trails and indoor crawler courses.

Performance

Powered by a brushed motor and a full-time 4WD drivetrain, the Land Rover Series II delivers smooth low-speed throttle control and the torque needed for technical crawling. The transmission is geared for climbing rather than speed, making it well suited for rocks, dirt trails, roots, and uneven terrain. Locked differentials maximize traction on loose surfaces, while the long-travel suspension helps each wheel maintain contact with the ground when crossing obstacles.

Design and Features

The licensed Land Rover Series II body captures the classic styling of the original vehicle with impressive attention to detail. Features include a realistic front grille, molded mirrors, windshield wipers, opening hood, detailed interior, and authentic wheels and tires. The chassis uses a ladder-frame design with solid axles, providing both realistic appearance and dependable off-road capability. Numerous scale accessories contribute to the truck's realistic presentation without sacrificing trail performance.

Control

The included 2.4GHz radio system provides proportional steering and throttle for precise control during technical climbs and narrow trail sections. Smooth throttle response helps prevent wheel spin on loose terrain, while the steering system delivers accurate input for navigating rocks and tight obstacles. Its balanced handling makes it enjoyable for both beginners and experienced crawler enthusiasts.

Build Quality

The Land Rover Series II combines reinforced plastic construction with metal drivetrain components in high-stress areas. Metal frame rails, durable suspension links, and quality drivetrain parts contribute to long-term reliability during regular trail use. Oil-filled shock absorbers improve ride quality while allowing the suspension to articulate naturally over uneven terrain.

Ease of Use and Maintenance

This Ready-to-Run model arrives fully assembled with factory-installed electronics. Routine maintenance consists of cleaning dirt from the chassis, inspecting suspension hardware, and lubricating moving drivetrain components when necessary. The modular chassis design provides easy access for servicing and supports a growing range of aftermarket upgrades for users who wish to customize their crawler over time.

Special Notes

This is a Ready-to-Run model, including the vehicle, 2.4GHz transmitter, brushed motor, ESC, receiver, rechargeable battery, and USB charger. Install AA batteries in the transmitter (not included), charge the included battery, and the crawler is ready for the trail. Popular upgrades include brass axle weights, softer crawler tires, metal steering links, and higher-capacity batteries for longer trail sessions.
