Can't wait to see this thing up and running . Keep up the good work and thanks for all your hard work on your channel makes for fantastic entertainment . Hope your family have a great New years . Sean From the Highlands in Scotland ....
Sean logie My friend, i am not offended at all! No bad, what so ever! I am happy you know my name is Aaron, and that you left such an awesome comment. Im a lucky TH-camr, to have so many amazing folks, like you, commenting and viewing my show. 5 Stars!
I also think it's cool that you manage to reply to your many followers. Watching this awesome build has inspired me to continue with my own clod based crawler project and again I thank you for that Aaron .
Hello from Poland. I found you few weeks age and I watch all yours vid and still not enough. You are great what you doing. Im lost all my cars but still love RC and can not wait when i buy new.
this was the last spooky intro I used to watch your stuff when I was 10 or so I was always scared of the intro always closed my eyes since back then you couldn’t skip 10 seconds lol
Don't think it'll break the gears in the transmission, there are smaller gears in drill gearbox which handle more torque than that, great vid at all, that's always a pleasure to look at yours! :)
yay! another killer krawler vid i loved your video at blackfoot for the winter bashfest, I accidentally said "OW" while take a break driving my slash when the summit slammed on the ground.
Hey medic loved the video can't wait to finish watching the rest of them now you may not read this but I have some advice for you that I've picked up along the years. I noticed while you were using your drill press you were wearing gloves, I've had a couple friends get very hurt from gloves getting caught in the bit and causing much more damage than a minor or major cut from the bit! Just looking out for a fellow RC'er! hope your enjoying the new crawler!
I hope the chips from drilling aren't stuck to the magnets inside o.O...would be hard to blow them out...next time masking tape would be useful safeguard...
I don't know if you will check this but I've watched your vids for a very long time u are my favorite youtuber and maybe you can go to axial fest next year keep up the work 👍🏻
smaller and more teeth is actually stronger its all about spreading the force over a wider area. this is why they make ratchets with well over 100 teeth
+James Shaw Whoa! James Shaw.. what are you doing back here!? Great to see you my friend.. happy new year to you! Glad you stopped in to say hello.. I check on your channel from time to time, when I see previous comments you have left :)
+RCSparks Studio I have missed commenting on your channel, was just going through some health issues,(made me mad at the world) but never got at you, just kind of hid from everyone, but if you let me, I would like to start stopping by again...
+James Shaw Well, you are always welcome on this channel James. I know this is nothing in comparison.. but if it helps.. I also do the show with health issues :( I have 2 torn discs in my lower spine.. and have daily traction therapy. I have been doing the show with severe back pain for more then 7 years.. it's just more painful then ever. It sure helps me realize how amazing it is to have a body that does what it is supposed to.. and Im a little jealous. Just goes to show we are all blessed in different ways.. and all of us have challenges to go through in this life. I continue to create this show to better help those who can't (for a variety of reasons) escape. I hope this show, and the other videos give you a smile, and help alleviate your pain, if only for a few moments a day. RC love Brother, and I hope you have a smashing New Year ;`)
+Zach Walley I appreciate your excitement :) Thank you! For folks that will be building this kit, this motor upgrade would always be on their minds - so I felt as though this was essential to include. More to come my friend.. thank you for being patient and for commenting
+RCSparks Studio hey medic I have a 1/18 scale 4wd ralley car and I upgraded it from the stock plastic drive shafts to the aluminium ones for it and ever since when it turns right the servo arm hits the rest of it and makes it not want to turn I've tried switching them back but still hits what do you think I need to do its the traxxas latrax rally car
excellent vid. This video will come in handy, cause I wanna do the same thing. But my motor is from an old bosch drill. But the big issue it is ac. So I will have to get some kind of current changer to change it from ac to dc. My motor from my ecx race truck just went to shit. Everytime I pull the accelerator it smokes. I hate brushed motors. But brushless are also not water proof. Everybody gets that totally wrong. You need to build or buy a cover for your electronics.
Great vid. But 48P gears in a 1/4th scale is a little disappointing and asking for trouble. Although 6.5Kg is not that heavy, for its size. Looking forward to the end result and running video. Big thumbs up.
Wow HUGE motors, never seen such big ones. Btw why brushed instead of a brushless sensored? I've always had that question when seeing expensive crawlers having brushed motors
For a while when I blew my slash motor I took the motor out of a ride on power wheels and it didn't goes fast but had a shit ton of torque I just had to do a little small modifications to the motor before it worked
+RCSparks Studio how far away is Blackfoot RC from where you live. Also is there a North And South PMhobbycraft. I have been watching your videos for a while now and you have inspired me to take part in the hobby. Keep doing what your doing, your amazing.
+RCSparks Studio I saw that you used compressed air I was thinking it might be harmful because the shaving will stick to the magnets inside the motor. I'm enjoying the build keep up the good work.
+Y2daT420 Im thinking about making a bunch of scx10's into some sort of cereal for this beast. Always start the day with a good breakfeast, I say! You read that right.. hah!
+sander curtis i guess you live and learn ^^ there is not really a good way, you just have to try it out. think it depends on how well made they are aswell and how tight the tolerance is, if everything is spot on then they should take alot of force and abuse
+PocketArtistGaming Yes. The video quality is not good enough for me, nor is the audio quality. Nor do I enjoy wearing a go pro on my head for 3 hours of filming. Also, the GoPro gets hot.. yuck.
+RCSparks Studio want is the tool you use to take your wheels and tires off... Is there a certain tool I need if so can you give me the link to get that tool
+Meteor Shower not a problem bud! The advantage for me is that I don't have to worry about Sensor cables, cogging, or the motor being "waterproof". A Brushed motor removes those issues for me.. and generally, depending on the make and manufacturer - a brushed motor has more low end torque
***** Haha happy RC'ing!! On Christmas day, I opened up my main present, the Blade nano QX 3D, I knew it was coming because I confirmed the order. Bound it to my transmitter, then powered her up, and bang a dead motor on arrival!! Plus many of the LEDs were gone. Taking it to my hobby shop tomorrow and seeing what they say about it due to us ordering it off them. Hope yours was a bit better! You genuinely seem a good bloke, even just talking to commenters, not many large channels do that. Happy new year Medic! :)
Me and some of my buddy are looking into an RC car that we use at the sand dunes alot. we are new to the RC world and was wondering what you think would be better for use to get. we want to be able to beat up on it but not have a lot of maintenance. should we go with a gas motor or an electrical??
I have a 1/10 scale buggy, the motor is 3300kv and I Need an esc, the motor was about $50 but with no information about how many amps it draws could you please tell me how many amps I would need for the esc?
I have seen your build until now. it look's like the new DeWalt 820 motor has a shorter aksel. So i was thinking, that maby you dont need the motor mount... Maby the holes in the DeWalt 820 motor fites right into the other holes ? Just a thought from a guy from Denmark :-)
Hey medic, any plans this winter for a frozen lake video with fresh snow (preferably with a slash :D)? Those videos are awsome! Also, do you have sand paddle tires? Do they work great in snow? There is much snow right now in Québec and im searching for good tires, thank you!!! Sorry for my bad english
Bad Ass!! We appreciate the extra effort you put forth to help make this underrated hobby more accessible for everyone! 👌🏻😀👍🏻
Can't wait to see this puppy run! Tis the rc building season!
Dude thanks for the tip about using the soldering iron for red threadlock! gonna save me the hassle having to drill out a stripped screw!
Way to go Aron . Been following your channel for 4/5yrs now and it just keeps going to the next level . This build is hard to get my head around ,have to keep reminding myself it's a RC ,the quality of parts seems to be amazing ,as for that dewalt motor !!!!! .

Oh yeah man, those motors will give you some solid torque.
Another great video. Top stuff!
I can't wait to see this rig when it's finished
Hello from Poland. I found you few weeks age and I watch all yours vid and still not enough. You are great what you doing. Im lost all my cars but still love RC and can not wait when i buy new.
Top work around Medic, liked the tapping of the motor. Keep them coming. N.
I'm loving this series.
Awwwwesome! Thanks for commenting!
those motors really are massive. cant wait for the next vid.
this was the last spooky intro I used to watch your stuff when I was 10 or so I was always scared of the intro always closed my eyes since back then you couldn’t skip 10 seconds lol
Cant wait to see it in motion!
Don't think it'll break the gears in the transmission, there are smaller gears in drill gearbox which handle more torque than that, great vid at all, that's always a pleasure to look at yours! :)
yay! another killer krawler vid
i loved your video at blackfoot for the winter bashfest, I accidentally said "OW" while take a break driving my slash when the summit slammed on the ground.
wow ! she is going to have monster HP for sure ! lol ! love this build series !
That's going to be a sick rig
this is a crazy cool series
Looks nice Medic, looks good so far.
Keep up the great work and I have seen every episode of yours from the beginning thank u so much
cant wait till this monster is done
Hopefully those tapped threads will be able to hold the weight of that gigantic motor
Awesome vid really like the editing and showing all the details! Keep it up Medic great as usual!
The build is coming along great, very nice job! Keep up the good work!
I enjoyed it video till the end medic .Top notch work bro 👍👍
That is awesome. Can't wait from the next one. Awesome!!!!!!
awesome man! i look forward to seeing this thing complete, I wish i was where you are so i could meet you man. It'd be an honor
Swwwweeeeet !! Love it, Have a happy new year ! and family ! Thanfs for your help in R C
Put axle grease on the flute of your drill. Gives you a better chance of keeping track of your metal chips.
love the build
I like this series. Congratulations bro. :)
sweet series thanks
You are the best been subscribed for 7 yr!

awesome and great info as well
smaller and more teeth is actually stronger its all about spreading the force over a wider area. this is why they make ratchets with well over 100 teeth
Man there are a ton of gears in those axles.
Medic the MAD SCIENTIST!!!
this is what I like to watch
Good job my friend!

wish you could have gotten farther into to build but looking forward to more videos man

love your vids
Good job😊👍
I love this channel!
Nice voltage eaters !!!
Dang man those motors are huge! Almost as big as a beer can.lol :-)
Bottom left of shot on the buildboard.Aren't those the screws with the rounded ends for the skid plate?
Really good Works ....Thumbs up :-))
Considering gear assembly upgrade to go with the mammoth size motors? The teething may strip off.
Why did you drill into the motor? Wouldn't it be an easier and safer upgrade to drill the holes in the motor mount?
excellent vid. This video will come in handy, cause I wanna do the same thing. But my motor is from an old bosch drill. But the big issue it is ac. So I will have to get some kind of current changer to change it from ac to dc. My motor from my ecx race truck just went to shit. Everytime I pull the accelerator it smokes. I hate brushed motors. But brushless are also not water proof. Everybody gets that totally wrong. You need to build or buy a cover for your electronics.
Don't the metal shaves get embedding into the magnets inside the motor??
great info
monster torque, how many turns are the new motors, do you expect to get any more speed from the bigger motors?
Great vid.
But 48P gears in a 1/4th scale is a little disappointing and asking for trouble. Although 6.5Kg is not that heavy, for its size.
Looking forward to the end result and running video.
Big thumbs up.
love the video can't wait to see that thing destroying the rock pile.
P S. Love the building a 1/4 scale 4x4 killer krawler 2.
je suis français et j'aime bien t vidéo
Why not blue lock tite holds and no heat needed for removal?
can't wait man
I'm pretty sure that this is the last video that medic put his classic intro in. But if I'm wrong please correct me
Awesome build so far, quick question tho, what is that tap and die set. I only have a small one and was looking for something like that, thanks.
On top of drill you can put some oil for easier for drilling...
Wow HUGE motors, never seen such big ones. Btw why brushed instead of a brushless sensored? I've always had that question when seeing expensive crawlers having brushed motors
Oh, sorry didnt see the coment below thanks anyway, willing to see this finished
2:48 Did those gears just move on their own?!?!?!?
You should build a Lego technic motorized truck they might be slow but those are fun to build
For a while when I blew my slash motor I took the motor out of a ride on power wheels and it didn't goes fast but had a shit ton of torque I just had to do a little small modifications to the motor before it worked
Hey my friend what happens with the huge snow blower
what's the difference of blue and other colors of lock tite?
I think a planetary gearset would have been a better design. You can get a good bit of torque out of those.
+RCSparks Studio
how far away is Blackfoot RC from where you live. Also is there a North And South PMhobbycraft.
I have been watching your videos for a while now and you have inspired me to take part in the hobby.
Keep doing what your doing, your amazing.
Why didn't you cover the face of the motor with tape to keep metal shaving out of the motor while you were drilling into the case?
Because I have a high pressure air line that blows it out. There will be dirt in there, soon enough..
+RCSparks Studio I saw that you used compressed air I was thinking it might be harmful because the shaving will stick to the magnets inside the motor. I'm enjoying the build keep up the good work.
the poor little scx10's will be crushed by this monster lol ... looks awesome medic ....
+Y2daT420 Im thinking about making a bunch of scx10's into some sort of cereal for this beast. Always start the day with a good breakfeast, I say! You read that right.. hah!
+RCSparks Studio lol awesome Medic ..it will be a Mepic episode :)
That's so cool
hi where did you get the killer crawler
Hey medic how do you know the amount of shear force the gear teeth can take? Any tips on how to guess or predict that?
+sander curtis i guess you live and learn ^^ there is not really a good way, you just have to try it out. think it depends on how well made they are aswell and how tight the tolerance is, if everything is spot on then they should take alot of force and abuse
Have you ever thought of getting a head strap and using a go pro to do these builds?
+PocketArtistGaming Yes. The video quality is not good enough for me, nor is the audio quality. Nor do I enjoy wearing a go pro on my head for 3 hours of filming. Also, the GoPro gets hot.. yuck.
+RCSparks Studio want is the tool you use to take your wheels and tires off... Is there a certain tool I need if so can you give me the link to get that tool
What happen to the summit the last time we saw you but the 820 on it ???????
Nice motar
Apologies if I've missed this, but, what's the benefit of using brushed over brushless for this project? Thanks in advance! :)
+Meteor Shower not a problem bud! The advantage for me is that I don't have to worry about Sensor cables, cogging, or the motor being "waterproof". A Brushed motor removes those issues for me.. and generally, depending on the make and manufacturer - a brushed motor has more low end torque
***** Ohh yes I see the issue with cogging now! Due to crawling being a slow speed things cogging isn't exactly needed! Cheers pal!
Meteor Shower it's a pleasure! Happy RC'ing my friend, and a very smashing New Year for you :)
***** Haha happy RC'ing!! On Christmas day, I opened up my main present, the Blade nano QX 3D, I knew it was coming because I confirmed the order.

Medic I think you should do an Unboxing of a 1/10 scale scx10 ram power wagon.
I had a dx2 but the traxxas plugs wouldn't fit into the mini receiver
+RCSPARKS STUDIO
I have a dromida mt4.18 do u know if I can put lipo battery in it
So is the 820 a 8th or 4th scale?
Me and some of my buddy are looking into an RC car that we use at the sand dunes alot. we are new to the RC world and was wondering what you think would be better for use to get. we want to be able to beat up on it but not have a lot of maintenance. should we go with a gas motor or an electrical??
what do u think of the x maxx
hey Medic is that dewalt motor actually from a dewalt drill? if so can you do a video of that motor in a scx10??
What's the best type of shock for my axel scx10
Ones that work
can be possible triple motor and triple turbo on Rc??
Hey medic do u know if I would be able to put a lipo into my dromida mt4.18 1/18
Rcsparks studio
I don't know much about motors but why are you using brushed motors? Do they have more torqe then brushless? Thanks.
What website do you shop at when your shopping online and how do you know if there good quality
I have a 1/10 scale buggy, the motor is 3300kv and I Need an esc, the motor was about $50 but with no information about how many amps it draws could you please tell me how many amps I would need for the esc?
why run that big heavy skid plate on it? it's just gonna get caught and hung up
I have seen your build until now. it look's like the new DeWalt 820 motor has a shorter aksel. So i was thinking, that maby you dont need the motor mount... Maby the holes in the DeWalt 820 motor fites right into the other holes ? Just a thought from a guy from Denmark :-)

+julthebaber i run proline 2.8 sand paws on my wraith and they work great in the snow
Is that an 18 volt motor or 12?
