Unboxed: Rlaarlo TK07 RTR [Video]

Summer is the perfect time to head out on an adventure. And no true adventure would be complete without a fun, capable, and ultra-detailed R/C crawler. Rlaarlo has been bringing the heat when it comes to larger-scale off-road rigs, and their latest model, the TK07, appears to carry on that tradition.
The TK07 features a boxy, early-90s-style body with chrome accents and numerous scale details. Under that exterior, you'll find a sturdy chassis platform and several trail-ready goodies such as a two-speed transmission, metal chassis and suspension links, and the choice of a brushed or brushless motor.
To take a closer look at what's included with the TK07, check out Rlaarlo's unboxing video featuring this new trail truck:
