When I upgraded my servos on my AX24 I needed to set the trim for the rear as well. So I disconnected the front servo from the ESC and then set the trim for the rear. Plugged the front back in and it stayed right where I set it. It tracks better now than stock out of the box.

Your videos are great. For a product review video, you knocked this one out of the park. Definitely my favorite RC channel. I appreciate what you do for are hobby and thank you. 👍🏼

Awesome video as always, Adam. Making me want to get one of these.

Super sweet, will catch on the next one

There were two reasons why we decided to bring the skid plate lower. One was of course clearance for the motor but the other one was to bring the weight of the transmission/motor lower on the chassis itself. The loss of ground clearance is more than made up by the lower center of gravity. I'm glad you enjoyed it 👍.

Great vid Adam!

Awesome video Adam 😊 what a difference in handling, it's like night and day

Nice man ! Works awesome 👍🏻

Drops down a tad and moves it over a tad. The red part is the same for scx. They just made a new skid to be able to run the brushless. I tried without skid but it hits the link and bottom of battery tray. Glad to see they listened to me

agree with the new up grade i have the injora 50 in mine and the brass plate but the wine with a little weight is insane

Great video man keep going 🤙

Wow you just fixed my issue with the rear trim, can’t wait to mine done like this.

Rear servo trim solution! I cut two old steering links so I had the correct length to align the rear steering. Then I used marine grade heat shrink tube to glue them together. It took two tries to get it right. Also with an Injora red 050 motor the crawl control is awesome!

Great video! I have the RGT v2 defender. I love the look of it, but the slow crawl ability is crap. Last week I ordered an fcx24 with a bunch of upgrades. Today I ordered an fcx24 esc to put into the RGT v2. That slow crawl ability is what makes these things fun. Can't wait to upgrade the RGT v2.

Been thinking of getting the AX24… With the Deadbolt and C10, I’m really getting into this hobby! Dad and even my young girls LOVE these things. They want another C10, a Bronco and the wife a Jeep. If I do that might as well get another for me, and I’m thinking AX24 ;)

Great crawler does great on your course.. Now I hate mine, lol. Thanks for the ideas of what can be.

The ESC looks so clean

adjustable links are the way to go. mine somehow worked with Treal links front and rear and the rear link connected on the top hole in the servo. I had adjustable links on hand though so I'm putting those oh the other AX24 in my build series. 💪💯

Far as the servo for the rear if you run proper steering link that will solve the issue your having. There are one made where the link mounts to the knuckle and the top arm is a certain length to account for the servo horn.

mine weighs 436 with a 57% forward bias and 50/50 side to side and its a monster. I have picks and videos on IG showing it on the scales too. That furitek will obviously be a game changer though! 💪💯

hit the bind button a couple times and the light will blink however many times the number channel you're on. trim accordingly. turn off controller and turn back on to save and get back to the original channels

Good video! I have been having the same issue with my ax24. Took it all apart twice, trying to figure it out. Swap in a mofo rc 30 motor too to see it would help. Definitely going to Swap out the asc now.

Love it

That’s really weird my ax24 never had an issue with any binding. Great video, and love the channel

Looks good man! What a change. One thing I noticed, I thing you could get away with mounting the ESC and receiver flat to the panel instead of sideways. The way you have it mounted seems to raise your center of gravity. Might be wrong.

You can trim the rear steering manually with an Injora threaded steering link kit.

ive seen people set rear steering trim by cutting the stock arm that goes from the servo to the rack a drill it for a small bolt with head cut off and adjust that way

I want to do brushless soon but i have no clue what I would put it in! I've really fell in love with the look of the ax24.

I’ve found that brushless motors increase everything on a micro crawler including vertical even if they raise the center of gravity the slow speed will make it just as capable on a slope as a brushless motor while improving everywhere else.

keep it up

I’ve heard of you switch the front and rear servo wires, trim it, then switch them back, the rear will be set. Obviously if any adjustments are still needed a full repeat procedure is as well. Don’t have one so, not certain this would work.

I have had that same noise at times on few rc trucks and cars. My dog herd it on your video on my tv and was looking to see where it was coming from 😂

I love my gt5 radio for crawlers, like ya said 75 bucks it has a lot going for it.

Hey man! On your flysky you should try your rear servo on channel 5 or 6 and then you can have truly independent 4WS

You should try Texoma's slayer chassis it's awesome! Mine is on fcx 24 axles. Park 250 motor injura shift servo(14 bucks but fast and powerful). Gladiator links by injura Tegu esc 3100 spectrum reciver. Injura scrambler style tires. 350 grams. Total beast!

I feel the exact same thing I told my son that last night the exact same thing you said we all know that the stopping lectronics a junk if you're honest about it I mean yeah that you got a decent slow crawl but that's on the scx24

The only way I've found to trim the rear servo is with adjustable steering links.

I love the course & the videos. I did the furitek stinger in mine. Cut off the top plate & cut the lower plate just behind the trans. Moved the rx & esc to the rear of the bottom plate & the stock battery sits angled between the rx & front frame rails. It’s a little monster now.

I installed 1/12T 33% under drive gears front and rear , the slow crawl is now much better than stock .

I have the AX24 in my cart with the Furitek Stinger and other upgrades totaling ~$500. I can either do that or get the 1/10th K10 High Trail I want. I can't do both just yet.

I couldn't agree more with you these electronics they fitted to the Axial AX24 XC-1 has got to be the worst on the micro crawlers from axial Forward is bad bad but reverse is even worse... And yes I have also spent many hours trying to find out how to centralize the back servo! after fitting my e-maxx servos. So if you find out please let me know Thank you for sharing another epic video with us 🤜💥🤛

I put my oem remote on 50% for slow crawl

Also if you have some injora double barrel springs swap them for the ax24 springs. Lowers CG some

Having trouble getting the stock transmission to install in this upgrade kit. Do you have pictures of how it looks assembled?

How do you manage to fit the body after installing the new receiver and module? seems the body won't reach the velcro mounts

Great video! Will share a link to the Lizard ultimate? Thank you.

On the Note Fury Tech I feel like Nick's Motors 100% better so far navigate to Pancake so far so much better but maybe that's because I got the Revenge of pancake adjusted correctly on the blizzard Pro and I'm just still going to have to work out the Kinks on the new system

Niiice 👍 it would be fine to see a comparison between this AX24 Furitek VS your titanium Trx4m beetle chassis w/ Furitek sys…💪 can you think about it ?

How much that combo cost? And were we can order it? 😊

Im taking this AX and putting its goodness into a Scx24 platform, this thing is pretty terrible unit. Always cockeyed off to the right if its under any load. barely can climb 50degrees. BUT I think once its all installed into a stable Scx24 frame it will make for a awesome 4ws setup :)

What ESE did you use?

Komodo Vs. Micro Komodo shootout! 😉

Can I just use the Furitek system and plug my steering servos in it or do I need another esc to plug with my servos?

Is it as easy to toggle between steering styles as the original control controller?

I just did this upgrade to mine yesterday and everything is good other than I get super bad torque twist? any reason to why that's happening. I mean its so bad that if I barely throttle forward the whole body is leaning.

Hey Adam, have you noticed that the motor hits the front driveshaft on full compression? I have the same system and there is a perfect circle groove around the drive shaft where it hits.

Can the furitek brushless kit be installed and just keep the stock transmitter?

At this point, would you recommend just buying the furitek pro complete rtr?

Any issues with rubbing in the front drive shaft?

My rear steering quit working on mine, I was at my buddies house it worked before I left the house got to my buddies would not work we plugged another servo into it there is power to the servo but the switch it’s not working does nothing

Will Furitek be selling just the ESC? I've got a slow-motion pancake waiting to go in my SCX. I like how the Bluetooth dongle is boxed up really nice. Any word on it possibly being waterproof?

What battery did you end up using? Does it sit on top of esc?

Hey do we think the cedar will fit into this rig?

What kind of tire its is it look way bigger

Hey mate I put a mofo rop in mine and when it flexes the front shaft hit the motor and is wearing a groove into it. Any suggestions on how to stop this? Thanks mate.

Wonder if this rig is gonna get the NSDRC treatment. 🤔🤨🧐

What was the box beside the new one called, and where did you by your Furitek kit at?

how is it with the axial ESC?

what tool " bit set " do you use? can you link it?

##TLDR WARNING## I got a new AX24 for my nephew, saw your first video and ordered some wheels/tire/brass and that Injora 050 50T and sent all that with it. My brother reports that my nephew is doing good with it, but its really jumpy. Just like your video, I'm assuming. After watching your video I figured an aftermarket ESC to the rescue, looked at all the Furitek stuff and I'm getting concerned over compatibility with the 2-in1 receiver on the AX24. There are warnings on the Lizard Pro with BT dongle module (FUR-2073) that its not compatible with HRZ00005 receivers. Is the Spektrum (SPMXSE2425RX ?) that comes with the AX24 this variety with a HRZ0005 board? You show the Lizard ULTIMATE (Fur-2226) running on the 050 brushed motor. That's exactly the performance I'm targeting (its better than I'm looking for actually), but its on the flysky receiver. You comment in the video that it will work with the stock receiver and radio. I looked it up and found the Lizard Ultimate has no such compatibility warning on the Furitek site. So with or without the FlySky, this is a potential solution @+$100 I've seen other folks that have bought the full Stinger package including the integrated Lizard PRO (in the box with Blue Tooth inside). That one also works on stock electronics. So i'm thinking that the Lizard Pro in the AX24 stinger package is not equivalent to the Lizard PRO that you can just buy by itself (beyond the cosmetics being in the box with integrated BT and everything). Seeking lower cost solutions, I looked up the IGUANA ESC, thinking this would be a cheaper alternative, but same compatibility warnings. Bottom line, i'm looking for a "good enough" brushed ESC, appropriate for the heavier than stock weight modded AX24 with stock receiver, and would provide a good slow crawl experience for a budding enthusiast. Basically, how would you have fixed this without going Flysky and Brushless? That is specifically what I'm trying to avoid for cost reasons. The Ultimate is $110, feels like i should just get the whole AX24 stinger kit at that point. Is there a $50 or even $75 solution for brushed motors and stock radios? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

SCX24 - Hidden Secret! Channel 3 & 4 Trim and Dual Rates / End Points! Even Throttle Dual Rate! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fhb5gr_iWd4.html&ab_channel=TheShop-MiniRC

its funny i just remember it was the only video i had to mute just because of the noise aha

I bought one , should have built one instead.

Yeah putting a new motor in it don't do it really that good at Justice with that ESC it's like a start-stop switch that's it

If only money grew on trees

Complicated little truck

Thanks for the waste of time

Ax24 or Scx24?
