Maverick RC Models in This Collection
Maverick Quantum2 MT (1/10 scale)
A popular choice for bashing and all-round driving. The Quantum2 MT pairs a 550-size brushed motor with 4WD, stable handling and responsive steering, giving it the off-road capability that suits beginners and regular hobbyists. Note: the battery and charger are sold separately.
Maverick Phantom MT & Phantom XT (1/10 scale)
Straightforward, budget-friendly 1/10 RTRs. Choose the Phantom MT monster truck or the Phantom XT truggy. Both come with a 7.2V NiMH battery and USB charger in the box, so you can unbox, charge and drive.
Maverick Atom AT1 (1/18 scale)
A small-scale 4WD monster truck that's easy to store, quick to run and great when you want a smaller footprint without losing the excitement. It includes a 1300mAh Li-ion battery and USB charger, and comes in green, orange, red and blue.
Maverick Microbe (1/24 scale)
A tiny 2WD buggy that's big on detail, with an anodised aluminium chassis plate and oil-filled threaded coil-over shocks, normally found on much larger cars. It's small enough to run indoors or on a driveway and comes ready to run with a 2S 350mAh LiPo battery, USB charger and 2.4GHz radio. Just add 4 AAA batteries for the transmitter.
