The real one has nothing on the 1986 Chevrolet K-5 Blazer Ascender. I’ve had a fascination with remote control vehicles for decades, and I’ve owned smaller versions, but nothing as extensive as this little beast. The k-5 Bazer Ascender by Vaterra, is known in the RC world to make authentic bodies based solely on its big truck brother. Every little detail right down to its stamped-steel chassis, adjustable wheelbase, and metal gear transmission make this 1/10 scale 4WD RC truck act like the real vehicle itself. If the real thing is a dream away, and you’re ready to experience the off-road minus the expensive vehicle repairs, the Vaterra Ascender is as realistic as they come.
