Awesome truck!Absolutely love how hobby like RC can make grown man happy😊

@DoURC 3 месяца назад

If it puts a smile on your face it's worth doing. I love RC, think it's a fantastic hobby with a really good community too. 👍

@RabbiJesus 3 месяца назад

Heck yeah, been looking forward to watching this.

@DoURC 3 месяца назад

Hope you enjoyed it 👍

@nodnarbsuahdlef 2 месяца назад

Love your videos man, you're a great rc driver. That clicking in the trans thru the mud is scary tho

@DoURC 2 месяца назад

Thanks very much, appreciate it. 👍 Yeah it wasn't happy was it! 😬🤣

@SandJ-Adventures 2 месяца назад

It's amazing how much difference that extra weight low down makes. I suspect the tyres are only part of the equation? I know from our TRX4ms that just the addition a couple of brass pieces transformed the performance. Not sure I love the wheel design, but that's subjective!😄 I've looked at "baby" winches for the TRX4Ms, but yet to tape the plunge on one (mainly due to how it would be powered), but I reckon it would be handy on this rig.😄

@DoURC 2 месяца назад

Yeah low down weight makes a huge difference. I'm not a fan of the look either, was just what I had to test at the time, will be changing them soon. I'm not a massive Chevy fan either tbh. 😬 Yeah mini winch would be cool. 👍😎

@SandJ-Adventures 2 месяца назад

" I'm not a massive Chevy fan either tbh. " 😱 I own a full size example of their sports car, but I'll let you get away with that 😄 I'm not a huge fan of that particular truck..🤫😄

@OkieDokieBoi 3 месяца назад

Excellent video, my friend. The 70mm Swamp Claws fit this truck like a glove. I've got some pics in the FCX18 reddit if you happen to be in there. Great content 👊💪🤘

@DoURC 3 месяца назад

Thanks very much 👍 I do like the Swamp Claws, very good tyres. I think I'd like to scale this rig down a bit tbh, nice deep dish wheels, lower the body and a overland rear bed. 👍

@OkieDokieBoi 3 месяца назад

@@DoURC well most definitely DoU😉 That would be just as awesome. I can't wait to see what it turns out to be. And you are very welcome, brodda. Love your videos...

@DoURC 3 месяца назад

@OkieDokieBoi Thanks very much mate 👍 I'll get it fixed and then work on some updates 👍😎

@isaiah9313 3 месяца назад

I have the 70mm swamp claws also they are perfect

@DoURC 3 месяца назад

@isaiah9313 Great tyres aren't they. I really like how good they are on the rocks but also in the mud. Nice bit of squish on the stock foams too. 👍

@RabbiJesus 3 месяца назад

Looks like the upgrades did their job. The gearbox is probably due for a check.

@DoURC 3 месяца назад

Yeah definitely, much more stable and a better all rounder. 👍 Yeah was a shame I had issues with it, definitely wasn't a happy bunny at the end! 🤣😬 Will sort it and change the wheels as not fussed at all on the look. 👍

@scaleworksRC 3 месяца назад

The grip on the rocks and the way it plowed through that muck was really impressive. What a world of difference! *maybe add a winch and go for a steep hill climb next?

@DoURC 3 месяца назад

Yeah the Swamp Claws are great tyres. A bit of low down weight definitely makes a big difference with these rigs as they're so top heavy. 👍 That would be cool, do enjoy a bit of winching. 👍

@johnmyers8 2 месяца назад

I just got the red one today...now the fun begins....awesome

@DoURC 2 месяца назад

Excellent, hope you like it. 👍 One thing to bear in mind is the power switch isn't waterproof. 👍

@johnmyers8 2 месяца назад

Is there any way to waterproof it.@@DoURC

@joshc3576 3 месяца назад

nice one mate. im just getting some low down weight for when i get lc80 back but the temptations always there to put on everything available😂😂 i just went for the all brass injora wheels and front outer portals. ive had to send my lc80 back electronic problems out the box. not sure if the last batch from fms have been a bit turd

@DoURC 3 месяца назад

Yeah low down weight definitely makes a big difference, especially with a scale hardbody. My LC80's have been great, so it's a shame I've had issues with this one. Haven't had a chance to run it again since, but will be changing the wheels as don't think they suit it. 👍

@scottpledge4073 3 месяца назад

Did you do brass portal covers in the back and front? Or just the front? Nice video!

@DoURC 3 месяца назад

Thanks very much 👍 Just the front portals. 👍

@borisviktory 2 месяца назад

nice👍👋👋👋

@OMazoo22 2 месяца назад

Are those the 64mm swamp claw just stretched onto a 1.3? Or are they the 70mm swamp claw? I know you said 64 in the video but it’s hard to tell. I just ordered a K10 and planning out the wheels and tires.

@DoURC 2 месяца назад

Yeah 63mm Swamp Claws on 1.3" RCAWD CyberWheelz. They fit fine, only issue you may have is the bigger wheels can puff up the foams, so either trim them or change them. 👍 They're great tyres. 👍

@johnmyers8 Месяц назад

I just got the red one..and was wondering if there is a metal drive shaft upgrade for it...the factory shafts have alot of play....awesome video

@DoURC Месяц назад

Thanks very much. 👍 Yeah Injora do metal drive shafts for the FCX18, not sure if they do them for the K10 yet, but definitely the LC80 👍

@johnmyers8 Месяц назад

I saw them but not sure about the length of the rear

@NatesRCclips 3 месяца назад

SOLD 🎉🎉 yellow LC80 is #1 🎉🎉

@DoURC 3 месяца назад

🤣👍 Yeah the yellow LC80 is definitely my favourite 👍😎

@JiluMiah-ek2rd 2 месяца назад

Is that the same root all your other rcs have crawled/got hung on? I think I saw where the tyres have worn in onto the tree root.

@DoURC 2 месяца назад

Do you mean the big root around 9 mins? If so yeah. I think only a few have made it over easily, including the FCX24 and upgraded FCX18 LC80. 👍

@JiluMiah-ek2rd 2 месяца назад

Yeah. That root looks familiar 😂😂😂 awesome video btw. Truck looks good with the big red stripe

@JamesDirtRC 3 месяца назад

Will that body fit on my WPL ???? hehehe i want a chevy on my c24

@DoURC 3 месяца назад

🤣 Possibly, it's literally the same size as my C24 👍

@tracydavis96 14 дней назад

Put a fresh battery in it you've been driving it for ever..I have one and it does fine.

@DoURC 14 дней назад

Pretty sure I mentioned the battery in the video. That wouldn't cause the drive train noises though. Probably stripped a gear, still does it but haven't taken it apart yet. 👍

@Patricklane37 3 месяца назад

Love the videos keep up the good work

@DoURC 3 месяца назад

Thanks very much 👍

@RC-UNDEAD13 2 месяца назад

How does it hold up with it not being waterproof? Looks like you beat them up? Looking to get one.

@DoURC 2 месяца назад

Yeah only issue I've had is the power switch, if that gets wet it stops working, so I just delete it. Other than that they've been fine for me. 👍

@RC-UNDEAD13 Месяц назад

@DoURC do you have a video on how ypu did it or is there a video to do it just in case?

@RC-UNDEAD13 Месяц назад

@DoURC would like to add brand new to the rc world, this is my second one in a month, I like your videos between fun to watch a educational.

@DoURC Месяц назад

@andrewkinard7077 I haven't sorry yet, but just basically cut the wires at the switch and join them. Then when you connect the battery it'll power on. Hopefully in future FMS will add waterproof switches like they have on their other rigs. 👍

@DoURC Месяц назад

@andrewkinard7077 Ah excellent, hope you're enjoying the hobby. It can be a great community too. 👍 Thanks very much, glad you're enjoying my content. 👍😁

How does performance compare to your unimog?

@DoURC 3 часа назад

Do you mean my green Unimog or the Mograt build? I'd say the K10 is better out the box hands down tbh, only downside is the longer wheelbase can cause it to get hung up more. Personally I prefer the Unimog though. 👍

@spidervadventures8107 3 месяца назад

Can we have comparison with trx4m ? ( high trail)

@DoURC 3 месяца назад

Stock vs stock or upgraded vs upgraded? My trx4m high trail is currently a Mega Truck build, so quite a bit different to this! 🤣

@spidervadventures8107 3 месяца назад

@@DoURC Any comparison which could be considered as a fair one. I think biggest rival for this truck is High Trail, even tho I am sure fcx18 k10 smokes trx4m.

@DoURC 3 месяца назад

@spidervadventures8107 OK, well imo stock the FCX18 will walk all over the trx4m, as its useless out the box imo! 🤣 So maybe I'll do an upgrade comparison then. 👍

@spidervadventures8107 3 месяца назад

@@DoURC Yeah I agree, I would suggest to do comparison which helps beginners to understand if it is reasonable to pay extra for a well known brand or you can get something like FMS and still have some fun. It took me a while to figure out that FMS is actually doing pretty well compared to Traxxas and Axial, but ofc. In a small scale which is 1:24 and 1:18. In bigger scales I would still choose Axial or Traxxas. But again I am beginner so I dont know much that is why I am interested to see how FMS compares to Traxxas since they cost pretty similar

@spidervadventures8107 3 месяца назад

Generally I think face to face comparisons and tests would be very informative and interesting for example scx10 vs fcx10 vs trx4 and similar comparisons in smaller or bigger scales. It helps beginners to decide what to get first, what is best fun and reliability for its price.

@tracydavis96 14 дней назад

They are are built the same different body

@DoURC 14 дней назад

If you're talking about LC80 vs K10, it's a longer wheelbase and heavier body on the K10. My LC80's have taken way more punishment. 👍
