Just a note to say the axles are plastic...I obviously need glasses...or a magnet! 🤣🤦 If you'd like to see it on the same trail runs my 1/10 scale rigs take on, with mud and water, check out this video. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AgtqPUkInr4.html

@darrenmackenzie1645 Год назад

I got one and ran the piss out of it for a couple of months stock. The stock gearbox gave up. I got the 370 two speed and that has been good for a while now, going strong. Put the metal axles and links on it. Had to replace the steering servo recently. Also got the RES v3 electronics . They make the low speed crawl control really good, very predictable. It’s a lot of fun.

@DoURC Год назад

That's some really useful info, thanks very much. I don't have high expectations for it, just see how it goes and what it's like with upgrades. I was considering the two speed but may just go 370 single speed. I've ordered portals, new shocks and wheels and tyres already as the first upgrades. 👍 Thanks very much for watching and commenting. 👍

Excellent, hope you enjoy it. I'll be upgrading mine soon to see how much better it is. 👍

@skribzonwhalz8007 Год назад

I quieted the suspension on mine by using really small o-rings where it mounts to the frame and they also help to keep the hardware from getting stripped through over tightening.

@DoURC Год назад

Thanks very much for the info and great idea. I was planning on using a washer or something to do the same, as the stock fitment isn't great. I've ordered different shocks with springs so will do it when I fit those. 👍 Thanks very much for the comment. 👍

I have toyed with the idea of getting one mostly to just strip it all down and weather it and dent it up to make it look like a proper old truck running around in the woods! At around 50 it is kind of hard to resist!!

@DoURC Год назад

Yeah, it's a decent hardbody and could look really cool with some weathering etc and accessories. You can get it even cheaper than $50 too! Tbh so far I've found the one 650mah battery lasts long enough for a little trail run. Plus it's so small you can just carry it home! 🤣 I've got a proper trail run video dropping on Wednesday, so hopefully that will give a better idea what it's like on a proper trail run with mud and water. 👍

Like you I have a lot of very good crawlers most 1:10 scale but there’s something about these little trucks I don’t expect it to an incredible climber but I bet with some mods it would be a much better performer I do see they have all metal chassis that match the body for under $200 I don’t think it has electronics but it comes with the wheels carbon chassis rails & every part is metal it’s super high quality.

@DoURC Год назад

Yeah, they're super cheap and tbh not too shabby for the price, as you say upgrades are cheap too. I haven't managed to get around to it yet, but will be upgrading it soon to see how cheaply it can be made closer to hobby grade. 👍

Yeah there are options specifically for it, or you could fit some bigger mini crawlers tyres for 1.0 wheels from the likes of Injora, LGRP etc. Just measure them up first. If you check out my Whats on the Bench playlist and did talk about some upgrades. It's still an ongoing project for me atm. 👍

I'm currently doing some mad scientist stiff to some old R/C trucks that I have. I robbed a 9.6v battery pack from one and three 3.2v batteries from two others. Then, I made another battery pack out of those 3.2s. So, I wired them in series(19.2v) and put both packs in a little 3.2v truck. It didn't work. I did feel one component on the circuit board was really hot, as it hurt like hell when I touched it by accident, lol. I'm going to buy a whole new bigger truck and add one of these packs to what it came with. I guess that I could wire it in parallel and the charge would last longer, but where's the fun in that? It's going to be 19.2V baby! It should jump straight up in the air, or the fire department will stop by, lol
