REAL STEERING WHEEL CONTROLLER!

The MTX-200 transmitter makes for a fantastic driving experience with great throttle and steering response. The color-matched foam steering wheel is comfortable to hold and gives a great driving feel. The included steering and throttle trims allow you to setup the car with ease.

All you need is 3 x AA batteries for the transmitter. Check below for more information.

IT'S SO EASY AND FUN TO DRIVE!

To drive the ATOM, simply pick up the controller with your left hand, put your left index finger into the trigger area, and then put your right hand on the steering wheel – it’s as natural as driving a real car! It takes seconds to get used to this easy operation, and pretty soon you'll be racing with your friends!

ELEMENT 1300mAh Li-ion BATTERY PACK!
The included high-capacity 1300mAh Li-ion battery pack gives excellent runtime, with 7.4v providing the ATOM with all the power you'll need. The pack is easy to access thanks to the quick-release battery strap system.

A closer look under the hood

The motor fitted in the Maverick ATOM is the reliable MM-200 380-size motor, so drivers can keep having fun for hours and hours! The 4WD drivetrain uses ball bearings on the axles to give drivers maximum runtime and efficiency and features an enclosed gear cover to keep dirt and debris away from the gears. Front and rear gear differentials, connected with a heavy-duty hexagonal steel centre shaft, easily transfer the motor's power to durable driveshafts and finally to the grippy rubber wheels at all four corners.

The strong MS-200 servo controls the steering through a dual-point bellcrank system with an integrated shock-absorbing servo saver to help protect against crash damage. Rugged duel-wishbone suspension is paired with super reliable C-hub steering hubs and one-piece rear hubs.

The honey-combed chassis is lightweight and provides the super strong backbone of the ATOM Monster Truck. Side Impact bars protect the lower edge of the bodywork. All four color-matched shock absorbers include a threaded body allowing you to easily adjust your shock setup on the go!
