Building up a very limited aluminum Ripper(s?) for the SCX24 platform. What color? You just have to watch... Enjoy!

There are under 210 total scx24 aluminum rippers (numbers 1-207 + prototype and a few oddballs) and under 110 TRX4M (numbers 1-100 + prototype and a few oddballs)

@TheShopMiniRC 5 месяцев назад

Also, if you thought it was pricey when you bought it from Meus, you should see the going prices now.

@TheShopMiniRC 5 месяцев назад

Oh… and awesome video. Good job, good sir!

@bcochener 5 месяцев назад

Ok that makes sense then on the Pink being such a high number. I guess the pink and the blue limited a were the last few to go out the door. Thanks for the clarification!

@bcochener 5 месяцев назад

@@TheShopMiniRC oh lord, I have. Nothing to what is in these both being built now. … they may get sold before I run them. I don’t know if I’d feel comfortable scratching up such a pricey & limited release. …decisions…. 😂

@@TheShopMiniRC thank you much! Which color & wheel combo is your favorite of the 6?

@ColorAgent Месяц назад

Man I love yr vids! How you build and edit your vids with such attention to detail is exactly how I like to do my builds! I'm learning so much form you and getting a ton better at building just overall and in general. Thanks man.

@bcochener Месяц назад

Thank you! I appreciate that brother!

@gibsonlife573 2 месяца назад

On my first set I put an o-ring on the front end on the axle shaft itself and then slid it through the back of the knuckle into the bearing and then through and that took out a lot of that tire shop and I contacted them about it and several other people did also but once I found that it's like they started putting behind the heck😊

@gibsonlife573 2 месяца назад

More and more I see these I really kick myself in the ass I missed out I love that orange and silver one

@bcochener 2 месяца назад

Well, you see I accidentally bought a pink and orange… 😆

@gibsonlife573 2 месяца назад

All right commented on this once but I forgot what I end up doing was running like a 3 or 4 mm hex and that takes care of a lot of it

@bcochener 2 месяца назад

Heck yeah. I always have those 4mm and 5mm hexes on hand too. It’s amazing how much difference a mm can make sometimes with wheel fitment. Great little fine tuning device.

@JeepinMaxx 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for the detailed video! I have that MEUS front axle and I found it had overdrive compared to stock SCX24 axles (my rear is a stock style aluminum assembly with +5mm hexes)

@bcochener 5 месяцев назад

That's correct. FR and RR come with 2/14T gears in the MEUS and they even give you a 2/16 for the rear axle (giving you the 14% OD then) for their setup. Too bad the front worm gears are not interchangeable with the standard ones though. -Great idea on the rear axle. I could have done that to get rid of having that tall rear link riser on this build. -Cheers!

My favorite wheel/tire combos gotta be white for the pink ripper and the orange for the orange ripper, looks absolutely killer

@bcochener 5 месяцев назад

Both great choices! I’m torn on the Black Shift RC etched wheels being my favorite on the white. I cannot decide at all on the orange. They all look fantastic really.

First person I heard about the long travel oil shocks was from you the hot racing I don't like them near as much either that or I'm running the wrong weight of fluid in them as the 36 Big 4 hot racing are really good I like them a lot more

I ran LG RP 33 percent underdrive in the rear on the axles

@bcochener 2 месяца назад

How’d you like it? Haven’t run that ratio yet. I assume similar to 33 O.D.

@gibsonlife573 2 месяца назад

I don't know of anybody else has noticed it but I'm mainly every transmission you get besides a couple that spur gear the bearings that are in the back inside the transmission that holds that shaft has like a millimeter or two of wobble right I replace all of my bearings with high-speed bearings and I try to get rubber steel bearing and not steel steel because that's where a lot of that noise comes from on metal gears because the spur gear is wobbling up and down and affecting your gear mesh even on mofo transmission I replaced his bearings because that wobble in that spur gear

@wingnutbert9685 4 месяца назад

Really beautiful builds! So are you and the other folks that got these special edition kits on a Meus mailing list/club membership? Be nice if the headlights matched the white color light of the light bar. I wonder if the headlight wires could be spliced into the light bar wires for on/off controls? And +1 on the white wheels. Lets the pink tube frame stand out on it's own, as it should. :) Silver on the orange as well.

@bcochener 4 месяца назад

Appreciate that! No mailing list, just had to be quick about purchasing them. They didn’t last long…. Especially the pink/white limited one. Already have a switch for the pink one like I did on the orange. Don’t think you could tap the light bar because of all the multiple functions it has. That might just turn the headlights on and off each time you cycled the light bar mode. Love those panel matched wheels on both as well. I agree, they pop the cage nicely. Cheers!

Have you heard about big kid tiny truck ESC very very small footprint so much smaller than the other ones you know and really good and you can tune it through a Wi-Fi Linker

@gibsonlife573 2 месяца назад

That's the fastest Servo on the market I have no phone service and brass and aluminum I have the Black Label I have every Servo you can Bank of I have reefs NSD RC and still the shift is quicker than any of them but it is not as strong as some of them

@gibsonlife573 2 месяца назад

Also I found out if you use a different hex on the front end you won't have that tire wobble I think I used a three or a 4 mm extra and didn't make it too wide either where you got a bunch of scrub

@gibsonlife573 2 месяца назад

When I have come to find is they put that overing back there to keep the slop out of the Grimm cuz when we first started getting them they had a lot of slop in the tire

@bcochener 2 месяца назад

Yeah. Floppy and sloppy for sure.
