The HobbyPlus CR-18P Terranaut 8×8 is a mission-ready recovery and hauling rig built on one of the most capable micro crawler platforms ever made. With Active All-Wheel Steering, a remote-operated 2-speed transmission, portal axles, and a fully functional recovery winch, this 1/18 utility crawler delivers an unmatched mix of realism, capability, and control.
Whether you're navigating technical rock sections, hauling scale trailers, performing recovery missions, or just trail-running with friends, the Terranaut does it all — with style and precision.

Why the Terranaut 8×8 Stands Out
The Terranaut isn’t just another crawler — it's a purpose-built multi-utility machine. With eight driven wheels, eight independently steerable wheels, a functional winch, scale towing capability, and a full hardbody, it delivers a level of realism and versatility rarely seen in the micro-scale category.
From recovery missions to scale adventures, the Terranaut 8×8 offers absolute control, incredible torque, and head-turning detail.
