Ready to Crush
The Terra Crusher comes completely pre-assembled from the inside out and comes with fuel pump and pre-adjusted .18ci (approx. 3cc) engine, all you need is a 7.2V battery pack to start the engine and fuel to run and then your set to crush, Terra crush that is.
2-Speed Automatic Transmission
Many features of the Terra Crusher give this machine superiority over its rivals. One feature that needs particular highlighting is the Terra Crusher's 2-speed FRAT(forward and reverse automatic transmission). FRAT enables the Terra Crusher to adjust to a variety of terrain by switching to low and high gears when needed to effectively maximize control. FRAT also realizes smooth, controlled reverse driving!
