Thanks Bro!

@@KnowerofThings I used what the kit provided. Sticking to the manufacturers specifications is probably the best thing to do as in part replacements go. If you're looking for replacement orings for the Ryft this would be the one: amzn.to/3A9yoDk

Hey, I get your frustration and if you like I can try helping you. If you have discord you can send me a picture of your setup so I can take a closer look at it. discord.com/invite/AMWPAb2h

Hey, thanks for watching and I'm glad you liked it. As for your question, I'm not sure what you're asking about. Can you clarify it?

@@metalgearrc2166 can I put this esc to my trx4 easily or I must cut and solder the wires with the stock motor?

Being it's a Traxxas RC you will have to, at most, the battery connecter. I do know some of the Hobbywing ESCs come with the standard motor connecters and most of the newer ones have the XT60 connecter on the input (battery side). So if you get the right one, all you would need to do is get the plug converter from the traxxas to XT60 and/or update batteries as needed with XT60s. Like this, amzn.to/3KA14Ya

Yep, sure do! I have it at the top of my pages on all my profiles. cults3d.com/en/users/Metal_Gear_RC/3d-models

I'm not using any. I custom-made the wheels in CAD and printed them out to fit the three screw hubs on the axles. I have some spacers on the front axle to widen the front tires to match the back tires.

Awesome! I'm heading to BTC this year too. This is my second year going, my third time if you count rocktober. Maybe we'll run into one another on the trails! If you have Facebook or Instagram you can follow me there too. I make more posts there than I do here on TH-cam. Thanks for watching and commenting. ✌️😉👍

If you do get it, I would highly recommend putting some blue Loctite on all the screws that are metal on metal. My truck didn't have any and I lost one of them on the first drive out the box.

I do get where you are coming from. You also have to remember some people do love their brushed motors. On the other hand what if a 540 motor is too big for your rig and you want the functionality of a high-end crawler??? The 1080 G2 is a sweet deal then! Now, I do have and love the Fusion SE, and boy does it outperform most brushed motors. It also has a lot of torque for a 540 motor and may be too much for some RC models. So, it may be good for some RCs but not all of them. Think of it this way, it's better to have more options than to have very little options at all.

Hey, I like that idea. I may have to give it a try being that it does have a little suction when pulling it from the mold from the cement. A little like pulling two 5 gallon buckets apart. th-cam.com/users/shorts2FBfzFjDWDw

You know how it goes, life! Busy with work and dealing with my health issues. I've been mainly posting on Instagram and haven't been my best to do videos for TH-cam. So, hopefully soon I'll get myself together and make more videos for TH-cam. The next best controller would be the RadioMaster MT12. I'm hoping to get one later and make some how-to's for it. It has more functionality than the NB4. You can check it out here amzn.to/3uz3iCB

B.T.C. was awesome for my first time. I liked it so much that I did go back for Rocktober. I hope to see you out there for the next one! 🤘😎🤘

I have not heard about that one but there could be a couple of things that could be causing that issue to happen. I would definitely suggest backing up all your models that are on the controller to your computer and then reflashing the controller with the latest firmware version. I hope that fixes your issue. 🤞😉

I did this .. I also put the last update ,., it still loses all the models installed on it after a while

@@SNKSebi You say after a while it loses it. Is the internal battery dead when this happens?

yes, after a while it loses everything on the station, even if the battery is charged, this happens after 4.5 outings with the cars

@@SNKSebi sounds to me like you may have a factory dud... 😔 Hopefully it's still new that way you can try to get it replaced with a new controller.

I would have to agree with you that yes, when rock crawling you want it to be a smooth and quick operation between Forwards and Reverse. But for the people that want true scale driving will love the Real Car Mode. Like when I was at USTE, I had it in my truck with the real car mode on. I had a blast with it on the trails but when I'm rock crawling it's a pain in the but to keep switching between Drive and Reverse.

Thanks bro! I'm glad you like it. 🤘😁🤘

It's better you're truthful than a liar. Plus I was trying something different with the music. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Thanks! Glad you like the truck. I do have to say, it's a fun little scale truck to drive around with some cool scale items in the bed of it.

Just a heads up, these wheels do not fit your regular 12mm. They are made for the old style Tamiya 3 screw hub. Let me know if you still want them.

I would but I will have to let you know that the wheels are made for the old Tamiya Bruiser / Mountaineer axles. If you are still interested, contact me with Facebook messenger. We can talk details there.

Hey, thanks for watching. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I do have other videos of this truck fully build and running that you can check out if you like.

@@metalgearrc2166 k will do 👍

Thanks Bro! If you like the short, you should check out the whole video. Just click the play icon at the bottom left, in the description.

Thanks bro! I was a little frustrated with the controller at first and the videos out there were a little all over the place. But I figured it out! And being that I have experience with writing steps for electronic procedures, I was like, I can make this a better experience for everyone. I'm working on editing the next video for the other RX for this controller. Hope to have it out soon.

Hey bro! And that was the classic receiver. You should see the newer receivers and this capabilities that are built in. I'm working on that video now.

I'll check that out, I had a noble the older one, sold it, If like to get another one eventually

@@RcDungeon I think it's an awesome radio controller if you're big into scale. Having eight programmable channels on multiple switches that you can be mixed with other controls opens doors to a lot of scale control from it.

I'm not big on cake either! 😆

Thanks bro! I'm glade you enjoyed the video. Thank for watching and commenting. 🤘😁🤘

Thanks bro! I'm glad you like it, I know I do. Thank you for watching and commenting!

I did think about doing that. The downside to it is it would limit the travel if the battery was lowered, but would work if I mounted the battery higher but then makes it too top-heavy. I do like where your head is at. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Added to the list!

Adding you to the list

Thanks bro!

Just click the link to the video to find out.

Thanks! Let me know if you want some boxes.

I got you on the list!

Yes, there are three different levels you can adjust from 6vdc, 7.4vdc, and 8.4vdc. If you saw my previous video you would know this, th-cam.com/video/8JV2xNCItZA/w-d-xo.html. But hey, thanks for watching and commenting. 👋✌

@@metalgearrc2166 thank you

Hey, I'm happy to help. You have a good day!

I like them both but depending on what I was trying to go for. I would probably lean towards the 4Runner if I was going for the look of an everyday vehicle that trails. But the CX2 if I was going for the "on a budget" trail truck. But hey, thanks for watching and commenting. 🤘😁🤘

@@metalgearrc2166 Thanks for the Advice on the Cx2 and 4runner, more them likley i will get them both.. lol

@@radioactivescalerc hell yeah! 🤘😁🤘

Can you elaborate on what you're talking about?

Thanks for watching and commenting 🤘😁🤘

Thanks bro! I know I've destroyed some things in the past because I did not know this.

@@metalgearrc2166 yah the older Axial plastics were really susceptible to this issue.

Good input! Yes you can use green slime or shock oil to help protect the O-rings but it also adds to the difficulty of needing more things to get the job done. My goal was to show a simpler way to do it and not damage your O-rings and not to get oil all over everything. Thanks for watching and commenting. 🤘😁🤘

Glad you liked it. I like to do things the simple way but also the right way. Thanks for watching and commenting. 🤘😁🤘

I would definitely do that mod if I was going lower with it. I'll do that mod when I build a scale Toyota drift truck. Thanks again for watching and commenting!

Hey, thanks for liking and subscribing. I do know about the chino mod but it does have its pros and cons. I'm wanting to do something like the "Teraflex" and yeah, RC4WD has them but it doesn't look like they work as well as the 1:1 does. I'm working on something to improve the articulation but time will tell if I will succeed.

@Metal Gear RC Oh ok,alot of people don't like leafs sprung trucks as they don't flex like say a scx10. I beat alot of locals in comps with there trx4,scx10,etc. as leafs are very capable once dialed. That sounds cool about making your own version of a teraflex kit. I'm not a fan of those myself. But will still be interested in what you come up with. 👍

@@jonlaird5082 You have Instagram account? I would love to see your truck.

@Metal Gear RC sure do and just sent you a message with it. Don't do much on Instagram at all especially with taking care of a 2 1/2 year old. As you can see I'm going super scale,lol

Thanks bro! I'm glad to hear you liked it. Also, thank for commenting, liking, and for subscribing to my channel.

Thanks for watching and commenting! 🤘😁🤘
