DIY Waterproof Receivers
I've picked up some cheap receivers and going to waterproof them myself.
It didn't cost much, about £10 for the coating and about £20 for 4 receivers for my dumbo setup. It would have cost me £30 for the waterproof receiver that goes with my Absima transmitter. So cost wise it makes it £7.50 for each of the receivers i waterproof myself :)

Hello friend, how are you? I like your videos, I'm already subscribed to the channel. I have a Huina 583 wheel loader and I would like your opinion and guidance on upgrading it to make it better... engine, faster steering, proportional acceleration, etc. Could you help me with the purchase links or what should I buy? Thank you so much for seeing you Thank you, hug
there are 2 websites to look at for upgrades : magomhrc.com/en/ and wuehlbox.com/shop/en/ . I got a lot of parts from them and they normally work well
Thanks man
@@Granite-City-RC Good morning my friend I would like to know if there is a difference in the Huina 583 loader between the V3 and V4 models and how to differentiate this when purchasing
Good morning my friend I would like to know if there is a difference in the Huina 583 loader between the V3 and V4 models and how to differentiate this when purchasing? Thanks
@@vitororsatti5552 the will look exactly the same on the outside. I can only guess the most will be V4 now as this was a couple years back when i madethe video. But if it does not have proportional controls then it's V3. If it has proportional steering / acceleration then it is V4 . I don't know if it says on the box which version it is , but worth looking just in case .

Good job 🎉

Great build my friend
very interesting big massive thanks sorry to hear about what happened to your loader that's why i keep kids away from my huina excavator 1594 .. because things like this can happen lovely video
Thanks :) I'm no expert when i come to RC's which is why i take the time to do on screen invetigations, they might save some people time if they have the same issues. When doing demonstratins and interacting with the public you have to expect somethings going to go wrong lol. The 5 FTX kanyons the group has for the public to use ( for donations to charity ) normally come back with a lot of broken parts ;)
Great fun to paint a fantasy bodyshell!
yeah, it is :) although i did forget to rough up the outside of the body so the paint job didnt work 100% like it should have, but i did the same on my coyote body and it has worked correctly :)
@@Granite-City-RC Obviously you need to crash it down some rocks etc!!! Oh, and just as a by the way, Range Rovers have an aluminium body. 😉
Top bro
Hey I just started modding my huina, I want to do this but can’t find a good link to order the parts.😕
there are 2 places that i use mainly for upgrade parts : wuehlbox.com/shop/en/ and magomhrc.com/en/
How much for you to paint mine
LOL, 1 miiiiilion dollars ;)
nice job an mods too ur loader best i have seen so far..
Thanks buddy :) there's not much more i can do to it, 1 being painting, and another being cutting it in half to give it " suspension " ... but i'm not gonna do that lol
great video and work on the electronics
Thanks buddy :)
Good job friend😍
Thanks buddy
excelent model when you buy this kit ?
Always try a local hobby shop where you live first. I found it on offer from here : www.applianceelectronics.co.uk/viewproduct/14798/trx-4-sport-assembly-kit-4wd-no-electronics-trx82010-4 , but they are a UK shop so dont know where they will deliver to. ** lol only just noticed you said "when" i got this at christmas**
@@Granite-City-RC jajaja yes i have a error write, but your anwser is good. I don speak english, From Mexico. Tanks but address shop page
@@RCrawlerLeon prueba esta tienda en américa : www.amainhobbies.com/search?s=Traxxas%20TRX-4&fk=26_183&lg=fk26 , No conozco ninguna otra tienda que esté cerca de ti. traductor de google jajaja :)
great video and work on the transmission
Thanks buddy :)
Mine broke In was grading with a big bucket :(
that sucks dude :( They are easy enough to replace , i just dont like spending money on fixing broken things lol
@@Granite-City-RC yeah m2 I just modified my huina 1593. Im a new at rc so was very happy I succeeded. Than I was having fun in my dads garage loading dump trucks and grading sand... bucket broke. i have one more week holiday so I planned to have fun with them but guess not lol. But anyway it nice things break for me I forces me to become a bit more handy with rc. Luckily my dad know rc quit well so if I mess something up he can help. But just replacing a servo shouldnt be a problem i mean more like If i ever gonna do more complicated mods or builds Rc is fun but its not cheap :(
Btw i just did the dump mod on the 1583. I made the linkage from 50 mm to 60 mm Then it broke I used a large bucket. Is it to much for thi fellah?
@@John-nx6ue is always good to learn how to fix things lol. I like building kits so i know how to take it apart and fix it if needed. Its also why some of my videos take a while, i'm figureing out what i'm doing as im doing it lol I used my 580 and 583 to dig my garden pond, was fun but took ages to do ( videos are on my channel about 2 years back )
@@Granite-City-RC oke very cool. So you have a lot of hours in your huina 583 with the improved dump angle. But you used to normal bucket that comes with it. So I guess to big bucket to heavy for a stock huina 583 :( or it just broke idk
Go Magom from Spain
Hello Spain lol
Do you have a video on the fast turn motor on the 583?
yes , from a while back: th-cam.com/video/f6dMyPvBmhU/w-d-xo.html
@@Granite-City-RC thanks so did u have to grind some off the plastic for the wires not to rub. Thanks for your videos. I have a few also
@@1tonysgarage no i didn't need to grind bits for the wires i just trimed where the top screws in to get the magnets and screws at the right height
Lokasi Terbaik..
cool upload and build so far
Thnaks Buddy :)
Oooo new rc😊
yeah, got that at the start of the month and though i'd get it built for Xmas :) got another on for Xmas just starting to build that :)
great build so far brother
Thanks buddy, i do enjoy a build :)
Hola esta super bueno que escala es saludos
gracias
Hi, great vid! What size are the hexes?
Its the standard size that come with the huina loader, not 100% sure , but wanna say about 5-6mm if i remember right
What size are the allen bolts that hold the arm together? I have a broken flange on mine and I need to split it to weld the new flange on.
no allen bolts / hex hardware , its all cross head screws. also , not sure what the metal is but its not iron/steel
Top! Hello my friend, grateful for sharing your improvements.
No problem :) i thought it would be handy for people
Get some snow chains
nice work 👌 excellent control of the excavator dude 👍👍😀😀
Thanks buddy. If you spend 30+ hours digging a garden pond with it you'll soon get good with an excavator :)
cool video and awesome rc's
i do like the construction RC's :)
Hello. How can I buy this rc construction machine? can you send me a link
First try a local hobby shop. You might be able to fine it on banggood or aliexpress. I bought mine from www.modelsport.co.uk/
@@Granite-City-RC Thank you. Do you have a social media address where I can reach you? I have other questions to ask. The scoops on this site are not like the ones in the video.
@@servetkurtulgan3619 i only do youtube, so no other social media. As far as i know the V4 has the bucket like mine in the video, V3 has a slightly different bucket.
@@Granite-City-RC I understand. What I want to ask you is, where can I buy motorized pistons that provide excavator movements? Pistons that enable the excavator's head to open or the arm to move up and down
@@servetkurtulgan3619 try looking for rc spindle drive on banggood or aliexpress would be my guess, should be able to find electric motor ones , or hydraulic cylinders and pumps for rc's
great job! needed this video!
i needed to get them replaced after the first day of using the granite lol, but the front ones have lasted ok

Great video👌💪
Thanks , i'll have to get it out for a test soon :)
@@Granite-City-RC in the past I had some construction machines. But now is just scale crawlers of diferents sizes and brands. Probably in the future I'll buy one
@@Fortes_RC_Adv they are fun / relaxing to play with. If i had the money i'd get hydraulic ones.... but it's also hard to justify spending £10k on a digger, loader, dozer, and dump truck lol
Will a stock loader work with those batteries or will it fry my board 🤔
it should be fine. The stock batteries are a 2s lipo, and these are 2s lipo's just with a bigger charge
Do u hv link to product for upgrade?
www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005765057290.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.5.21ef1802KUvLod is where i got mine from , but have a look round aliexpress for either 1573 or 1583 parts you should find it :)
cool battery connector mod and can't wait to see how the rest turns out,have a great weekend
Cheers buddy, have a good one :)
Is that a 7.4 v battery
th-cam.com/video/Q3peeFWfxaQ/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for the info! Right now I'm changing aall the electric stuff in my 583/Amewi G485E, including the transmitter and receiver. 😅
No problem, good luck with that :)
If I may ask. What electronics are you using to replace in the 583? What would I need to replace the electronics in my 583? I understand it is a little more complicated than simply swapping ESC's?
Amazing and rare Vehicle❤ Ugh I loved this model! Why is it currently more difficult to get a Kyosho vehicle and its spare parts compared to Tamiya? greetings
Hello, good job friend 😍👏
Thanks :)
Thanks for posting… great seeing some footage of my quad rider eddie 😎
no problem mate , it is a funny odd cool thing to see running about the place
Bjr cets quel type de batterie vous avez mis et estce que que c bien en 7,4 volt ou plus de celle de la batterie d'origine merci a vous
j'ai utilisé une lipo 2s (7,4 volts) de la même forme qu'une batterie NiMh tamiya. j'ai un Zeee 4200 mah et un Gens Ace bashing 4000 mah qui conviennent

How many bottles of blue do you need to cover all the body?
one should cover it if i rmember right, and maybe up to half a tin of white to back it
Hi I know you did your up grade a year ago I was wondering how is it going still with the new motor has it altered anything the power or the mother board mine has a trouble slewing one way so thinking of your motor I live in auzzie cheers 😊
To be honest i havent really had much of a chance to use it recently, but i don't remember it causing any issues to the MB. Its a faster and stronger motor then the stock one and improved the performance though.
@@Granite-City-RC thank you 😊 👍
@@shaungwatkin1638 no problem mate :)
@Granite-City-RC hi sorry to bother you again I received my new gear box the other day it had no wires on it from the company you brought yours from I only have a red dot next to the terminal I have emailed the company but they have not answered me😌 could you tell me would the red dot mean positive wire think it would be myself hope to hear from you again Shaun 😀
@@shaungwatkin1638 Hi Shaun, from what i remember the red dot was the positive side. I un soldered the wires from the stock motor and used them for the new motor. Get it all fixed into place and give it a test before putting the top back on in case i am wrong though lol
Hi boss how do you pearing the controller to the board?
if i remember right i didn't do anything , just swaped the board and turned it all on controller first then the loader . It should just all auto bind
Thank you
.
Great video, I'm just about to do mine, I found the Magom video useless to watch, Yours is so much better. I noticed your never took the capacitor off the original motor and put on new motor, is it not really needed. Thanks.
Thanks. i either forgot or not noticed the capacitor, but it seems to work fine anyways lol :)
