Hello TH-cam!
And welcome to the channel. Today we are looking at an early version of the EasyRC Bronx. This is the model before the electronics revision of the later models such as the Thunderstorm. This particular model was on special offer on the Fair RC website. But is it still worth a purchase? Lets find out.

I have a Gantry bro and the insides look the same 🙄🤫 Check out my channel for Gantry videos 😊 #FactsNoFiction
I superglued "grousers" to my tracks with square edge toothpicks I ordered online
Nice! Similar results I would imagine?
@theminiatureconstructionco4556 yeah I wished I had tried what you did
@@scottbaker4314 same logic just with a bit of flexibility.
Nice job mate, looks great👍
Turned out really well. Nice basic kit. And a not very common subject!
Is it upgradeable? like hobby grade
Yes I would imagine so.

@andrewslobodyanyuk4538 no idea what that means but thank you. 🤣
Very nice bronco but not the best crawler 🔵🔵🔵🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍🔵🔵🔵
@carloshnunez Yes, the difference between the earlier versions and the latter is all in the electronics. Much better control. It would be well worth upgrading as the body is lovely. 👍
Only downside , is your steering servo will give up the ghost far quicker with weigghty wheels lol
@dangrady2938 I was thinking that about the whole transmission. I have put a metal gear servo in since (see later video). 👍
Not too shabby! The WPLs have a bit of a whine to them, but I can live with it
@@scaleworksRC it's a little annoying, but nothing major.
Whoever was driving that the first time is a great driver... 🥸 .Defo a prime candidate for se upgrades(aren't all rc?) I wonder what could be done aiming for the normal reatail price,hmm,Ponders.
Excellent skills! I think you would struggle, but may be worth a shot. Wonder if the geared down portal axles would help?
That's come out nicely.Always liked the Cromwell.
@@grrfy it's a genuinely nice little kit. 👍
Is it self righting?
If I remember correctly yes. It just rolls back over.
I just got one and i had trouble starting it but to find out 2 of the wires where missing so idk what to do any recommendations?
@@Supacinnamon012 if you just bought it. Can't you send it back for a replacement?

@McRc73 Happy New Year to you to from the UK! 😀
Great hack!
@@HerbertTolentino-l3j worked out ok 👍
The white rims are ugly.
@heavystarch100 I prefer the others but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. 👍
Do you know how much weight you added to it?
@Kfizt not sure, basically as much as I could fit without it interfering with the internals.
No way😮
@Clamity33 🤣
it is trash, toy grade quality
@cheerfulsoulph I wouldn't say toy grade. It's a cheap truck, for sure, but you do get what you pay for. At the money I paid for it, it's definitely worth it.
❤
@@mm9ox love a good model. 😁
Is this the one from Temu? I just got one in the mail and opened it. Not very pleased with it costing almost $60
@jamesross6393 not sure. It's the new JJRC version of the previous model. I think they can be had for under £40 here in the uk. Which is pretty good value. And compared to the original, it's a real improvement. So you would have hated the original! 🤣
Awesome job. Real bulldozer trends have teeth on them anyway, for that very purpose.
Works a treat!!
heehee !
@@grrfy you know that feeling 😅
That's much better.😊
@@pipparazzi yep, it did the trick.
Awesome video. If you attach your towing point just behind the house the tug will turn much better while towing. SCBG4L
@@boatwerks I'll definitely have to try that. 👍
@theminiatureconstructionco4556 that's how we tow on the real tugboats
@boatwerks worth bearing in mind then.
Good solution 🔵🔵🔵🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍🔵🔵🔵
@carloshnunez worked a treat. I'm wondering what these axles are like with the standard gearbox now?

@darrenjackson6207 not a bad little truck for the money.
Too bad the only option with a 370 is useless for crawling 🔵🔵🔵🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍🔵🔵🔵
@@carloshnunez yeah I was a bit gutted.
Your good for a brushless upgrade with that gearbox or just put the injora mb100 in it and you'll get that super slow crawl
@Rc_Alex_76 iv3 I saw some brushless upgrades for it. I think Fair RC do some.
No bow mg on a firefly...oops airfix.
@@pablolowenstein1371 🤣
Great idea for diffs.
@@billythegoose007 yes nice and simple.
Hello. I liked your presentation and bought this car. It has two problems- major one is weak servro. Is ut possible to upgrade? Can you suggest stronger one that is compatible? And second problem is it´s steering angle, it is very small- again, can it be upgraded and how please?
Hello. Not sure about the servo as it uses a strange size and its five wire (from memory). Sometimes you can grind the stops on the steering to increase the angle.
You will need metal gears on the gearbox 🔵🔵🔵🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍🔵🔵🔵
@@carloshnunez yes I was thinking that.
how do the electronics and gearing cope with the extra weight ? as they are actually quite heavy those wheels 🙂
@suvsteve so far so good. But my concern is there will be a reduced lifespan.
@theminiatureconstructionco4556 Yeah definitely I put them on a eazyrc bronco and killed the motor and then tried them on the V2 fms 1.18 k5 and thought actually no then on a mn111 and then that struggled to over a Lego brick I like the tyres and the design but I'm now thinking they are to heavy so might look into trying the lighten them .
WOW! They are lovely looking set of wheels!! RCAWD are good eggs eh!
@grrfy yes mate, I can't fault them.
Get a mb100 in that beast
@@Rc_Alex_76 what's an MB100?
their upgraded servo savers for ftx banzai/vantage/carnage is a must
@@shadyhazza OK that's good to know.
I guess people like plastic parts because they are softer and can absorb shock better.
They do bounce well!
Cool 🔵🔵🔵🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍🔵🔵🔵
@@carloshnunez just some funny out takes. I have some wheel weights on order! 😀
Very nice, you need to try the rock van now 🔵🔵🔵🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍🔵🔵🔵
Is the rock van the same chassis?

let me know. 😀
@theminiatureconstructionco4556 i will do! I found larger propellers i could also swap in
@@RustyShakleford1 what in the pump housing?
@theminiatureconstructionco4556 yea there was one with a different pitch for the impeller. I also found a large 55mm propeller metal for direct drive propeller shaft motor
@RustyShakleford1 oh OK. 👍
I think the brushless is better on batteries tho
Yeah they are normally a little more frugal.
Would the thrust be better with a proppeler version? Instead of the jet i want to use it for oulling a small gill net
I'm not sure. There is decent amount out of the back of one of these jet boats. No prop to foul in your net either?
@theminiatureconstructionco4556 yea thats what I was thinking the upside of no prop to foul but I'm not sure if I can get replacement impeller for the jet if I suck up sand and damage it. How much thrust would you estimate the jet to produce? 1lb or more?
@@RustyShakleford1 I think AliExpress may do spares. or buy the really cheap Tyxin version for a parts donor?
@@RustyShakleford1 not sure about the pull but its decent for that size boat.
