- In this video I build and test the brand new Injora SCX24 Rock Buggy kit! This is a nylon body shell that comes with the tubular chassis, body panels, hardware, and lightbar! I fit Injora extended axles, 43mm double barrel shocks, and mud terrain tires to our buggy to give it an aggressive appearance and improved performance capabilities. Enjoy!

Man your little work partner was so friggin stoked. Glad that this hobby brings families together like this. Keep up the good work bud.
It was my secret to purchase more RC stuff until know...😀
Haha he was SOOOO excited! That’s the best feeling in the world. We played with them all weekend and had a blast!
Some of my earliest memories with my dad were building RC's together in the 80's and 90's and going to the RC track or BMX tracks to rip around. Spending the winters building a new car or buggy were some of the best and fondest memories I have with him.
Love that!
Awesome 👍🏻
If every son had a father like this the world would be a much better place. Love your vids, tips and tricks in the crawler world. I’ve been completely encapsulated the last few weeks with my deadbolt and the plethora of upgrades available. This is a great channel!
Thank you, I appreciate that! The best part of the hobby are the times I get to share it with my little guy!
I have become a 24th scale addict, and I am a builder by heart. This beast is on my radar, however, I am working on two others att. I love the builds. Hint for tire insets, I use 15ppi open cell foam (black aquarium filter). Cut a square as big as inserts you want. Hold insert against the square and trim to size. I found my Lexan scissors work best for cutting out the center. I then trim the sharp edges inside and out.
Awesome father and son time. The squeal says it all.
What a great idea for the foams! I will have to give that a shot some time. My son loves the buggy! Definitely a hit.
The kids likes the articulation! Awesome build man, it's great to involve the little ones.. they are toys after all.
Thanks! It's the best when I can get Axel excited and engaged. That's what it's all about.
Very cool build man but your son's reaction was the best, great video. Saved for reference
Thanks for watching! Whenever I can get him involved and hyped up it's the best!
Glad to see you doing more ground up builds vs just mods!
More to come soon! These are fun!
Wising you more likes! You do a great, thorough job on all of your videos, and have a great little helper! I have recently got into rock crawlers, and your instructive vids have helped a bunch as a starting point for where I want to continue this hobby. You have pretty much gone thru the progression of what I am going thru now on my crawler and shown me what I can do next for mods.
Awesome, thank you! Have fun!!
My brothers and I all watched this video and are all talking this morning about how cool it was that you let your son help! I'm sure he loved getting to help dad and learned alot because you involved him in the process. Now we're all reminiscing about helping our dad when we were kds.
Best comment ever. There is nothing I love more than sharing this stuff with my little guy. I can only hope that he looks back and happily remembers these times when he's older!
Thank you I have been wanting to build one instead of buying an rtr and changing every piece. This helped a lot and I appreciate it.
Glad it helped!
Loved seeing your boy get so stoked! Your videos are awesome dude keep it up thank you!
It's always the best time when I can get him involved and excited!
Thanks for putting this up. I have the kit not yet build and was looking for a little help. Looks like a fun build and love the looks!
Thanks for watching and I hope it helps with your build! It's a great kit and we really enjoy running it.
Awesome video! Little dude's gonna love that build for sure. You can tell how excited he was driving it hahaha.
Oh man, he's totally obsessed!
Such a cool build! You can tell Axel really likes it too. So cool to see you guys building something together! As for overall cost that's not bad for fully custom rig I think. Another great vidoe Adam, thanks for taking the time to do this! Take care!!!
Thanks Trevor! This was perfect for Axel. The buzzsaw motor, the green body, and the big tires check all of his boxes!
@Cape Crawlers I went ahead and placed an order with Injora, everything I need to build my own mini Capra. I used your discount code, thanks for that!!
NICE !!! Im waiting for mine.. i got the green too. Im stoked thanks for the video !!!
Thanks for watching! Enjoy the build!
Awesome job you two!!🤩👍👍👍
That made an awesome rig my friends!!
Thank you!!
Very helpful video! I think I‘m gonna buy this for my C10
I was able to squeeze the electrics (Gen 1) upside down under the hood. It just barely clears the servo, but works fine. So far this rig has been amazing. 👍🏼
I need to try this!
Another good video...Just picked up my first axial the other day... AX24.. Now I wanna build one of these.
Thanks! Have fun with that AX24!
Yesssss!! Man.. the first comment I made was when I noticed little man was in the vid with you.. but when you guys were seeing how it flexed.. priceless had to comment again.. lol.. great job man.. all smiles here.
Haha! He loves the flex just as much as I do! LOL
Big fan of the channel.. but this one is extra special with the little dude helping.. sweet build man!
Thank you! When he grabbed the hex driver and started tightening the screws, that was a cool moment. This was his first real hands on project and it will be a special one for that reason!
Little man got some skills driving 👍
My dude!... ty so much for being an honest and informative content creator!.. I built a really capable deadbolt that's extremely fun to drive and watch drive thanks to you! I'd love to show you but I don't use any "social media".. but keep up the great work!
So happy that the content is helpful! Have fun out there!
Awesome build Adam , looks like a great little buggy ,have fun with it
Thanks! It's a ton of fun and my son loves it if you couldnt tell!
What a beautiful build!
Glad you like it!
That's SICK!!
It came out great!
That is a great video. Awesome kit.
ive been dying to seen this buggy chassis in a video thanks man!
Thanks for watching!
It's such a cool little crawler! I just uploaded part 2 of my build showing how I squeezed the V2 Electronics down beside the transmission leaving the rear tray available for battery mounting!
I need to go watch that! My only complaint is the esc/battery location
It does looks like there might be enough space front under the front brace thing. I like the beside the transmission mount option because it balances the weight of the motor and gets more weight down low!
Looking awesome, yeah I’m here watching I was also putting together a new bed for my FCX 24 power wagon comes with a headache rack and roll Bars
That sounds awesome!
Dyno-Claus! Rockin it.
Thank you!
Launching it all over was the highlight of this lol
Bro I've been checking your channel and waiting for this video. Thank you
I hope it was worth the wait!
@@CapeCrawlers for sure
The reason why I love scx23 is due to the indoor trails you can build at home and taking it outdoors to take on the world . The size is perfect I can buy so many and never care about space and each part is much much more cheaper than what I’m use to
Totally agree
Fun build! I have one on the way. I think I am going to build it up with my takeoffs or stuff for now.
I love this small buggy. Your ESC will fit under the cowling. Your front panel will need to be installed on top of the tubing. The ECS will mount at the perfect spot with the double-side tape.
I do too! When you say under the front cowling, do you mean up behind the servo?
@@CapeCrawlers Yes, I left about 2 or 3 centimeters away from the servo that clears the links and the servo.
Buggy frame looks nice, put one on the new AX24 and it'll be the perfect 1/24 axial Capra.
Great idea!
I swapped fms fcx24 axles under mine. I run Injora brass wheels on this rig, after seeing your slyme ballz video I ordered a set. It’s a very capable machine although I wish it had more options for shock mounts. I use a very small (400mah) battery on one side next to the door and stick the esc/receiver on the other side. It works for now. I put in the “big block” so nothing fits under the hood!
Great job on this one
Thanks for watching! I like your suggestions about the electronics. I may need to revisit this and sure that up with your methods.
@@CapeCrawlers I just got these little lumeneir 75c 300mah batteries that fit perfect in that door panel area. Should be better than the 20C i have been using. I don’t have the “interior” installed. I run the furitek lizard but still use the v1 electronics for the rx, which goes in that door panel area. The biggest tinkering will be finding link set ups you like, at least for me. I used deadbolt front and c10 fronts for the rear. Now i might have to grab some 64mm mini pins and add slyme balls to those. It looks like you really nailed it on the injora axles, that thing really flexes. For being a not so LCG chassis, this thing sure does crawl over everything very well. I was using mofo’s printed version of the ugly mofo with a Datsun 620 truck body mounted on. I was ready for a new look and this was it. If you do come back to this rig, post us a video of what you find.
Heck yeah I’m going to do it. A little different. I’m going to go nuts on a gladiator then use the left over parts ++ to build it. Going to get one from my local shop today
That's crazy, I bought this today for my son and even the green one too for his birthday tomorrow to build it with him his name is aksel (Norwegian Axel) good stuff man real dad's rc with their kids 😂
Thats awesome, have fun! Building this with my little guy was way more fun than actually running it.
Good idea on the green panels yes ittle man awesome 👌
Green was the right choice :)
@@CapeCrawlers never go wrong with green
@@CapeCrawlers hey fyi i run v2 electronics in all my rigs but I take the esc apart and use them just raw board style saves weight and looks Kool 😎
Your not kidding it's tight in there. Had to ditch the fake interior and battery tray and just mount it to a minimalist chassis to make it look right on gladiator links as well as give me usable shock mounts. It works but there was a lot of cutting and fabricating with a 370 can motor in it
This must be absolutely awesome with a 370 in it!
Love love love It father son time building extra super cool trucks all around good stuff my lil man 2 1/2 he loves it too he is all about fixing truck's w Dad. keep up the good work u guys hop yah having a good wintah looking forward to more awesome vids
Thanks for watching! There’s nothing better than getting my little man involved in the builds. That’s awesome that your little guy is into it too!
when I do my tow rig comp, I'm going to use the buzzsaw so I can have torque to pull and speed to get around! also mofo rc's aluminum magnetic part tray is awesome! highly recommend for when you have screws laying around, the tray is a little small so I would probably get at least 2.
Great idea! The buzzsaw is such a versatile motor!
Injora has three types of the tray, and the same type are cheaper!
Hope you're feeling 💯%! Speaking of the Capra, I got a friend who wants to get the 24 Gladiator & turn it into a long wheelbase Capra, in which, I'm pretty excited to see!
I'm solid, thanks! That will be an interesting build!
@@CapeCrawlers For sure. Can't help but ask; where do you get most of your 24 stuff??
New sub, cool channel got the c10 and fcx 24 for Christmas love them both! Already spent a fortune on both 🤭🙄
Welcome! Have fun with the builds! It sounds like you've entered the upgrade vortex. Time to get a second job to fund the upgrades LOL
Good job
Thank you!
Sweet little rig.
Gotta finish my trx4m before I build something else but this might be next.
It’s a fun little project!
Holy crap i was here like not even a year ago and subscribed when you were at like 1.3k now your at 10k congrats good job.
Thank you! The channel is growing really fast. It's been an awesome ride!
The tubular frame with attached panels looks 100x better than the new Axial AX24.
I really love the looks of the Injora buggy. They did great with the design!
Loving these SCX24 builds but wow, the price really does stack up!
They are indeed expensive little monsters.
that a cool build. i ordered mine last week with many of the same parts, i spend a little more coin and went with the furitek electronics. Figured i may as well go all in hahah. Going crazy waiting for shipping haha. Looks great, glad your kid is learning young too. We need more fabricators in the world 👍
Yours is going to be amazing with the furitek system! I am contemplating building another one with a brushless motor. I really, really like the setup and Axel won't share his green one LOL
@@CapeCrawlers Haha, if i had a sweet rig like that when i was young i wouldn't want to share either !!! Just got mine together and man......injora really did it right with this chasis, and all their parts in general. Easy to put together and clearances are just precise. Just wish the battery tray was a tad bigger for bigger batteries. Do you get a lot of torque twist on yours ?
@@scottmichael7178 I don’t feel like we get a lot of twist. It seems pretty solid. But it’s hard to notice when my son is always on the throttle with the buzzsaw motor!
I did this same build and was also disappointed about space for the esc and receiver and battery. I think the ultra24 is a much better design and I love how yours came out so I think that’s my next project! Great video!
I love the injora buggy but the Ultra is on another level I feel.
I was gonna build the LGRP too but their axles are out of stock until the “end of this month” … which probably means next month. lol
Looks very nice, I would recommend a brushless motor, very cool slow control.
Hey bro, I put my Esc/receiver under the roof panel and took out the front two screws so it can flip up to plug in my battery. The servo wires are plugged in facing the rear of the car and the power switch is accessible on the passenger side of the vehicle. The battery is strapped in at the rear on mine also. Great video I was thinking I may go for smaller electronics as well maybe a Furitek lizard pro and use a radiolink receiver.
That's a great idea!
Injora never fails to impress... Yes I am definitely a fanboy..lol.. if you think this kit is cool they have a 1/10 scale that is pretty much the same thing a little different but looks awesome and accepts all the axial parts
They are doing great things over there. Love the balance of cost and performance. Great stuff!
Build looks amazing, looks like I will have to buy a new servo. No way the stock servo cable has enough legnth to reach that far back. Thanks for the content!👍
Thanks! And yes, you will need an extension cable or aftermarket servo to make the reach!
Really love this kit but I run brushless and sadly not looking like Komodo with fit, keep up great vids
Bummer! Looking at the cage I thought for sure there was room! Maybe the micro komodo?
That Buzzsaw motor is MEAN in this buggy!
It suits the build perfectly! Mean little thing!
Great videos, love your honest opinions. (Still watching) I’ve had good luck w Hot Racing alum strait axles in my 24’s. Hobby Etc in manch NH is an awesome shop(warehouse) in the Nor’east. Not an add, just advocating for products and places that help me!
Thanks for watching! Next time I go to Maine I'll have to check out Hobby Etc!
Man I can't wait till my portal axles get here so I can finish putting mine together
It's going to be unstoppable with portals on it!
I just got this in and putting it together
Only problem I have now is where to put the stock esc and need battery and servo extensions
Great video and break down on parts! Sold all my 1/10 getting educated on 1/24…. Just seems to work inside or out! And affordable… SUBED🇺🇸
Thank you! That's the main reason I love the 1/24's: the world is your playground!
very pleased
Super nice build! I have not watched this previously unfortunately. Thanks a lot for all the detailed information. I see that you used a lot of upgrade parts, so not much of a stock scx24 left actually. I wonder whether you could also use an fcx24 as a donor. In my opinion you would have wider axles, two speed trans, stronger servo, stronger motor in the stock setup already. Of course, more adaptation work would be required to the skid plate, shock setup, and potentially electronics and other parts. I may give this a try, but as I do not have any donor scx24s, I may just try a new fcx24. It may not look as clean as with a scx24 setup, but would definitely have its advantages.
I would love to hear about the outcome of the FCX24 donor. That would make for a heck of a buggy!
cool video and buggy.... something that i might consider in the future... i haven't watched your ultra 24 video yet.. I am going to be building an scx24 deadbolt based chassis from a Canadian company fusion 3d printing and design called the hydra. keep up the great work.. I recently subscribed because of the gladiator content
Thanks for watching! The Ultra kit is pretty impressive, but it's a much more extensive build. The injora was fairly simple and well priced. Definitely a fun project!
another very cool buggy build, thanks for doing yet another truck!
Thanks! More to come!
The green looks awesome on this chassis! It would be super cool to see this chassis built like you did, but the same link setup you have on the Ultra 24! For the battery, you should get one of the batteries that is the size of the stock FCX24 (Palm Power is used a lot) and put it inside the cage behind the door panels on the rock slider. Then, you can keep the ESC in the back, and if you ever upgrade it to a Furitek ESC, you can put that on the other side! You might have to add a little weight to balance it.
You should get a clear one, and do a sweet custom paint job and the Furitek Rocketman!
I was confused on what were you doing at 10:07?
Thats a great idea. there is plenty of room inside the cage; a lot of vacant space on either side of the transmission. A low profile battery could easily fit there. At 10:07 I am using a small nut to secure the link because my servo tray stripped out! Good eyes!
@@CapeCrawlers Sweet, thanks for the response!
Thanks heaps! I have just ordered a complete Injora build with front and rear steer and thanks to you l added a few parts id have been missing if not for your video. This is a dad’s first truck the kids have theirs and I’m guessing they will want mine too haha. Just wondering what size tyres you chose?
Ur son is nice driver😊
He is doing really good isn’t he?!
We really need more run time of this beast! Maybe on the outdoor corse?
I got some content of it on the rocks and can put up some shorts of it doing work outside!
I ran mine with a little longer front or links in the front and you can stick your ESC under the guess what you would call the hood panel and it doesn't interfere with the arms or articulation either I use the little small Dumbo RCs
Thats a great idea!
Sweet! I'd want to use FCX24 slipping diff axles and furitek high speed gearing for a peppy little bouncer. Throw some dirt while bouncing up some hills.
That would be an awesome setup!
I'm doing my buggy now and I have furitek lizard pro ESC and the Godzilla brushless on 3s it's fast only worried about the motor flipped to the front. Fingers crossed it all fits. Oh and I'm going with gladiator long links rear and the 58mm C10 long links on the front with 68mm huge tires so it'll be long big and fast. Fun is knocking at my door I have to go answer it. Lol
@@timwegman5776 Nice! That's quite long. You might need a axle widener kit to balance the length so it's less likely to roll over. I have a build with C10 front links and deadbolt rear links so it's a little longer then average scx24. I just got my Axial Ryft build finished so I got some knocking going on too. lol. I still want to do a 24th scale bouncer though.
Just got my Treal high clearance links on the truck today. definitely in need of a better shock to open up that flex. Relocated them to the rails for a free mod, but they are still really lacking in flex.
Gotta get some more travel so those links can move!
Awesome video, my daughter is into watching our Bronco crawl on the couch so I think its time to get her one of her own too! Since it's suggested to use the C-10 running gear, would the Bronco platform work also? Keep up the good work and excellent videos, props from Canada!
Thanks for watching! Yes, the bronco uses the same links/driveshafts as the C10.
Awesome thank you again!
If you wanted you could mount the esc under the front and take out the interior think
you could really gain some performance and save on room by putting one of the brushless systems in it. I think that would totally turn around how this build performed.
Totally agree. I think I may build myself one and do a brushless motor in it!
I was able to fit the ESC in the front of my Endura buggy between the shock towers. Battery went in the back tray
Injora buggy I mean
Ohhhh I need to try this. How did you mount the esc?
Are used double sided tape to stick it to the bottom of the cross brace that’s supplied with the kit. Had to put it upside down so my stock servo wire could reach the connection
Love your videos I just subscribed
I am new to this, can you tell me in your opinion what is the best scale crawler to get into? 1/24, 1/18, 1/12, Best aftermarket upgrades available, most fun, I love building things like this. Thank you
i would love to see this thing compared to the new ax24!
And you will!
Nice work! But your links are too short, I suggest using the longest links, in addition to increasing the wheelbase, because the shock absorber changes the angle, the off-road ability will be better.
Thinking deadbolt rear and c10 front like I have on some other builds. It is probably unstoppable with a longer wheelbase!
Id love to see it with rear stear
Wow this is amazing always loves the rc crawlers and this build is really making me want to invest in one ..how much would something like this cost or anything to start for a beginner kit wise you recommend..love the content and had to subscribe all the best to you ❤
Thanks for watching! I think this was around $240 if I remember correctly. But you can get a great crawler for $150.
Here’s a new trick to throw at this chassis…. Grab 4 of mofos “AFIB’s” and mount them on the upper shock mount. Kaboom, more shock mount options. This thing is a killer now, and im not even using the mini pins…..yet
I will check that out!
I noticed after I bought mine they came out with a clear kit so you can actually do whatever color you want I was kind of bummed I didn't see that one but you know I'll have to end up buying that too cuz this kid is so killer I'm trying to fit my RC all-wheel drive new transmission and motor comes with a 370 can little big but I'll figure out how to get it in there... Spit on it and shove it in lol 🤣
LOL It's a great kit. Crazy value for the money!
Great video (as always). Do you think this little kit would (easily) work on a TRX-4M?
It would take a little work. The chassis is not going to accept trx4m hardware without drilling the holes out. And I don’t think the skid plate from the M would fit. So it would be a pretty extensive customization
That's a fun little chassis. What was the esc and receiver you are planning to use on this?
I may try a flysky gt5. The receiver is real small and I think you could secure it inside the cage on the rock slider
What axles would u rather have these injora ones in this video or the Scx24 meus isokenetic?
built 2 trx4ms just got a scx24, not sure if i wanna go overboard with this build too or keep it like a trail truck
\
This is awesome. Would you recommend this body over the black metal plate chassis injora released a little while ago?
I personally like this version better, but I don't have hands on experience with the other body.
I really love the look. Is this considered an lcg chassis?
It's very cool looking. I wouldnt consider it an LCG. The cage keeps the weight up pretty high compared to a purpose built LCG chassis.
I absolutely love the look of this thing. Do you think it could be modded to use FCX24 portal axels and electronics, with SCX24 links, skid plate etc? I would love to build a kinda hybrid rig as cheap as possible.
I think it could! As long as you had an scx24 skid you should be able to make that work
Injora basically made a 1/24 capra after the utb18 flop, good call !
It definitely did!
I’ve ordered the buggy, beadlocks, and tires so far. I was waiting for this video to see what you did shock, link, and motor wise. The thing looks like it could perform if set up, but I was a little bummed you built it for your son! 😂
I will tell you I like it enough that I think I have to buy myself one. It is a really cool rig and I can see TONS of potential! It would easily accommodate my rocketman combo and would be absolutely wild with that setup!
@@CapeCrawlers … would a lizard ultimate fit? I’ve ordered the rest of the stuff needed to complete a roller and just need to decide on ESC and motor. I’m gonna research your rocket man set up. lol
@@bladeaddison3189 Yes it would!
@@CapeCrawlers … I have another question for ya … is the buggy too light for oil filled shocks? Just wondering why you used dampener shocks instead.
I’m down to servo and ESC … rest is on its way! 🤘 Used your code on Injora! 👍
Great build! What else do you need if you don't have a donor SCX24, beside the things you mentioned and the Wheels, tires and radio system?
You’ll need basically a full rolling chassis:
Skid plate
Links
Motor, transmission, driveshafts
Complete axle assemblies front and rear
Shocks
Servo/servo tray
Esc/rx and transmitter
Wheels & tires
@@CapeCrawlers Thanks, so better to buy a SCX24 as well.
Im looking to try & build a tube body for my nitro car. Lots of aluminium tubes which iv had problems with aluminium braising rods i melt the aluminium before the braising rods melt.
What tubes do i need? I don't want to clean coating off brake lines, these dont look like they are coated.
it is awesome! can share tires and wheel information?
Thanks! Here’s the combo: www.amazon.com/INJORA-Beadlock-Gladiator-Deadbolt-Car（Black）/dp/B0B7JSZ3VH/ref=mp_s_a_1_19?crid=29Z46XCUXV592&keywords=injora+1.0+wheels&qid=1673437606&sprefix=imjora+%2Caps%2C155&sr=8-19
Are the body panels available separately
Adam great video as always! I'm currently working on building one of these for my kids to enjoy. I'm using an Injora trans, 050 66t motor, and aluminum skid combo. Also using their high clearance aluminum links in the recommended C10 length. My issue is the rear right upper link hits the back side of the motor before it gets to full compression. Are you having this issue? Other than bending or grinding the link is there a trick to fixing this I'm not aware of? This is my first 1/24 build so still learning. Coming from the 1/10 Capra and 1/32 Orlandoos.
I grabbed ours to check and the link is not touching the motor. Perhaps the Injora is longer than the buzzsaw we used? I’m not sure. I’m using all the same components you are (skid, links, etc). The only thing I can think of is the length of the Injora motor. Maybe try a 030 size or a different 050 sized motor?
@@CapeCrawlers thanks for the info! I thought the buzzsaw looked about the same size as the 050 motor, but I guess it's a little smaller. Oh well! Once I get everything wrapped up, if the up travel is too limited for my liking then I'll modify the arm or swap to a different motor. I appreciate you getting back to me. Keep up the great work!
