It is amazing how just a couple things really made such a huge difference on the truck. It needed a little bigger tire and the roof rack is kind of icing on the cake.
BlueDually4x4 Agreed, the roof rack really started the make-over on this truck. I got the rack for another project and it didn’t fit. It’s been sitting in the shop and it finally dawned on me to put it on the Dynahead. Few other parts later and a fun mini project was complete... for now.
Bob Raven The Dynahead was fun when I first reviewed it, but after making a few changes and watching Truck Trials videos to see how the real vehicles perform, this quick project turned into a really good time!
Nice to see a new video on the Dynahead! I definitely have a lot of fun with mine. I use 4.19 tires that work pretty well with 4 wheel steering, as well as some oil filled shocks that add more suspension travel.
omg, most awsome vehicle yet, film this in slow-mo, it would look phenomenal . and maybe a couple more things in the bed and rack, ( that rack on that truck, wow ). and a narrow front bumper with a winch. that thing would jaw drop.
Your "parts lying around the shop" are nicer than most the stuff I own and have installed in my crawlers. Lol great work. It looks and performs way better than stock. Gotta love this hobby.
This video inspired me to get one of these. Not sure what route I want to go as far as the build goes, but I may just have to copy this, it looks that good. Great video
Hi, I have the same Dynahead, 100% stock for the moment, the only thing I do is replacing the battery forwards. I'm waiting for the shocks and wheels. Increas the shock travell, the grip and put some weight on the wheels. Do you think a good motor like the crawlmaster would be interesting? I got the 4ws but maybe I should get out to reduce the total weight and descent the gravity center.
Nice video. From a photography point of view, I'd like to know how some of the shots were created. For example, when the vehicle is traveling through the ditch and the camera is following along so smoothly. Do you have a separate camera person?
fantastic vid and car. would you consider changing the stock shocks to something with a softer spring or longer travel? would the barrel tamiya springs fit?
Why is it that you connect the red wire from the battery and not the black one? I see that often in reviews on here and other places as well 🤔 Thanks for sharing this great rig! ✌🏼😎👍🏼
sylvainster30 You’re not supposed to leave a battery connected when not in use. I connect just one side so it keeps the wires neat while I shoot the video.
sylvainster30 Yup, total removal and safe storage is the best route. The single wire thing is just a habit I picked up. I’ll build up and prep a car for photo or video purposes and sometimes not shoot the pics until a few days later, so it’s still prepped and wires looks presentable by the time I’m ready to work on it. And I don’t have to worry about any power drain on the packs.
The dynahead looks awesome with the upgrades, I would like to see the rear steering hooked up. By the way have you announced the winner of the RCmart esc giveaway?
That truck looks super cheap, is it worth anywhere near $300? The plastics look like they're made by Tyco. Is it just the video making the truck look cheap? Or is it as fragile as it looks. Originally when I saw the new rims and tires I figured the cost of the new treads would be double the cost of the entire truck. Needless to say I was very surprised when I saw the $300 price tag for something that looks like it should be purchased at Toys "R" Us. I think it definitely looks cool, the body as potential and of course the new wheels and tires make it look like a real vehicle adding some scale detail. But performance was it looked like a 3 out of 10
