With the Vanquish VS4-10 Phoenix on the 6-problem test course, initial testing was hit and miss. Lastly, there are pretty S8E 8mm bore scale shocks with bleed valves and dual X-rings. You’ll find basic fluids are included and the beadlock wheels are complex but easy to build. I appreciated the clearly-labelled parts bags and a quality set of tools which were also included. There’s a premium-feeling set of steel C-channel frame rails. The plastic bar-work is flexible and strong. There’s a good variety in the quality sticker sheets.Īs well as the welcome interior plastic scale pieces, there are molded front inner fenders and an interesting, plastic scale radiator mount. There are five pieces of polycarbonate, with rear wheel guards, the main body, an interior mold, a dash piece ready for stickers. Very cool! Opening it up, you’ll find a clear polycarbonate body, ready for paint of your own design. As a long-time fan of Scale Builder’s Guild (the YouTube channel and the web forum), it’s a blast to see the SBG logo on the box artwork. Less electronics, less weight, and still the advantage of transmission-set overdrive – it’s good to have these options! It’s a simple case of setting the arm manually to the correct position and tightening the grub screw down onto the arm, locking it in place.
But for the front, 6.5% overdrive may be an acceptable gearing to keep, foregoing the shifting option to select free-wheeling or 33% OD from the radio. For most folks, keeping the DIG would be a common decision, so at least that rear servo would be worth installing.

There are grub screws at four locations above the dual shifting arms, which allow you to lock the transmission in a variety of ways instead of needing to install servos. On the rear, you have a similar design to the well-known and trusted Hurtz DIG unit, allowing shifting from engaged to free-wheeling to DIG (locked, no rotation). With the front, you have on-the-fly overdrive shifting from 6.5% to free-wheeling to 33%. So called because this transmission allows independent gear selection for front and rear axles. Plastics aside, the big news with the Vanquish VS4-10 Phoenix is the VFD Twin Transmission.
