Description
Complete Electric Self-Build Truggy Kit
The Acme Racing Raptor Electric RC Car - Brushed Version is a comprehensive self-assembly kit designed for enthusiasts who enjoy building models as much as driving them. Unlike many electric kits which supply only a rolling chassis, the Raptor includes everything needed for a full build: a 540 brushed motor, SC, 7.2Ni-MH battery, charger, 2.4GHz radio system, tools, oils, grease, and all mechanical components.
This makes the Raptor exceptional value, eliminating the typical frustration of sourcing electronics and missing parts. Construction usually takes 8-12 hours, making it an ideal beginner-friendly introduction to RC mechanics or a rewarding weekend project for experienced hobbyists.
Educational, Engaging, and Built for Learning
The Raptor kit is designed with education in mind. Schools frequently use this model for teaching the fundamentals of mechanical assembly, gearing, suspension dynamics, and electric power systems. From installing the drivetrain to routing electronics and tuning suspension, the build process provides hands-on experience with real engineering principles
Because every stage involves machanical systems - differentials, shafts, shocks, and linkages - this kit is far more educational than simple toy-style models. Builders gain a clear understanding of how RC vehicles operate long before the first test run.
High-Performance 4WD Racing Platform
Once assembled, the Raptor becomes a powerful, fast, and stable truggy with excellent handling characteristics. Its 4WD shaft-drive system evenly distributes torque, enhancing grip and stability during acceleration and cornering. The wide truggy tyres and low centre of gravity allow the model to perform confidently both on-road and off-road, making it highly versatile for varied terrain.
The 540 high-power brushed motor delivers rapid throttle response, while the included 7.2V Ni-MH battery pack offers strong, consistent performance. The electronic speed controller provides proportional forward drive, braking, and reverse, ensuring precise control at all speeds.
The chassis design features:
- Front and rear bevel differentials for smooth torque transfer.
- Oil-filled shocks to absorb impacts from uneven surfaces.
- Rigid suspension components for predictable handling.
- Pre-painted body shell for a clean finish straight from the box.
The result is a race-ready truggy with impressive top speed and smooth driveability.
Everything Included for Full Construction
The Raptor kit includes every component required for complete assembly. This all-in-one approach makes it ideal for newcomers who would otherwise need to purchase electronics separately.
Included components:
- 540 brushed motor.
- Electronic speed controller (proportional forward, brake, and reverse).
- 2.4GHz wheel-type transmitter.
- 7.2V Ni-MH battery pack and mains charger.
- Tools for full construction.
- Grease, oil, and build consumables.
- Hardware bags and structural components.
- Pre-painted, exclusive body shell.
All that's required after the build is 4 x AAA batteries for the transmitter.
