  • While up at my land last weekend, I finally got some trail time on my new RC4wd TF3, running it with my fully built TF2 with the 4runner body. Another apples to oranges comparisons everyone loves so much;)

    Cool video with some cool wheeling, honestly I’m not a big fan of the new tf3. I think they could’ve done a better job on it, especially with the price on it. I don’t really see a improvement over the tf2 honestly, I think they regressed on this one.

    Great job! I'm thinking the 3 needs more weight to make the suspension work, although what you've done so far seems to be an improvement. You're right about the ESC, the stock RC4WD piece is only 60 amps and is OK for light trails but it was definitely struggling on the rocks. I prefer a high turn (65 - 80) brushed motor, but I haven't tried a Holmes 5 pole. Too bad they didn't bring back the Bruiseruptor rear axle for the 3. It would be interesting to see if it would make a difference to have the springs in a more scale position. One idea I've got would be to get some construction flags to mark gates, to compare them on identical lines. It seems to be much louder than the 2 also.

    • @RCeveryday

      I agree, the 3 is extremely loud. I think keeping the rear axle narrow is helping it flex though. I remember fighting that on my old bruiser trying to get it to flex with the wider track out back. I have a cchand flatbed I really wanted to put on the 3, but the chassis rails go all the way to the bumper unlike the 2 and I cant bring myself to chop it up being the limited edition, lol

    I have my TF3 now. I have done some simple mods to susp and switched to my SSD rims and 1.5 growlers, Other wise everything else is still stock, No probs with steering. So off to trails this weekend with it,

    I just got my TF3 and did the same mods as you did. I also added a drop or 2 of shock oil and it really helped with smoothing out the shocks. My only complaint so far was my factory steering servo quit and esc fried up running on 2s on its 3rd run so I was kinda bummed. But I have a new motor,esc and servo from HH coming Monday. Hopefully I can get mine up and running soon. Not sure if you saw it but rc4wd makes a quick release body mount for the 4runner. It looks pretty decent

    I have to say I’m very happy with my Marlin TF2 and at the price (same as the TF3) I would just buy another Marlin TF2
    The steering and the inboard rear leaf springs just not appealing to me
    The 4Runner looks great 👍
    Awesome video though !

    They both did really well considering you were driving them through what would be class 8 to 10 trails! Lol. It looks like the steering isn't nearly as bad as everyone is whining about. As I figured. Lol. I bet using some metal rod ends for the steering instead of plastic would take a lot of the slop out. I was afraid it would be impossible to get trimmed right as it comes from the box

    Are 1.55 wheels actually something like 14 inch 1-1 size? I did the math on my extra cab and they seem small.

    • @RCeveryday
      @RCeveryday  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It’s hard to say. I’ve always been told these hilux bodies are closer to 1/8 scale. Some things they don’t look quite right on. My Land Rover defender looks more appropriate with 1.9’s than 1.55’s.

    Your old body looks really good with the TF3 bumpers going over the rocks and it moves well. I injoy your videos because you are into scale like me so I have to ask you what are your feelings about the oversized 22R under the hood? Looking at it next to one under the 4 Runner side by side. That's the only thing that has me thinking no. The last engine is really good I just wished they were the same size. Please let me know what you think. Thanks for sharing your videos.

    • @RCeveryday
      @RCeveryday  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Man that engine is pretty large. It doesn’t bother me too much because I don’t like opening hoods that much. I do like how heavy the motor trans combo is, it really seems to make the front suspension work well. I get why a lot of folks don’t like it though. It’s at least half an inch too long.

      @@RCeveryday Right, Now do you know if they will be making all rest of the 22R so it looks like it will run? Because if they did that would help it look smaller and better than the engine bay in the 4 Runner.

  • @Firewlkre
    @Firewlkre 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Toe in those front wheels more and it will run straight.I would like to know if the 3 has a tighter turning radius? I guess the 3 is louder because of the 2 speed trans running in 1st gear.So both the tf2 and the 3 are available which one would u recommend to a first time buyer?

    • @RCeveryday
      @RCeveryday  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Right now I’d still recommend the tf2 marlin edition for a first time crawler. It’s got all the right mods right out of the box.
