RC ADVENTURES - Working on my '76 Chevy K5 Blazer - What Tire will I Use?! Axle Swap
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 ส.ค. 2024
- Today I get a chance to swap out the axles and select new tires for the season. I was using this truck as an experimental puller - but as the snow has now fallen in the winter, I want to take this rig out trailing! The truck I am working on is an RC4WD trail finder 2, with a two stage transmission, and all steel driveline. I am looking forward to taking the topper off of my rig.. but I will do that reveal in the next episode where I feature this truck. For those viewers who wonder, this truck is 1/10th scale and is electric powered. Though I can put 22 volts (a 6s Lipo), I am currently running a 11.1v 3s Lipo. The power block (esc) I am using is a Tekin RX8, that has been modified to fit, and it is powering a T8 gen 2 Brushless 1/8th scale truggy/buggy motor. It is a true POWER HOUSE! If you would like to see more pictures of this rig, check out my Instagram! / rcsparksstudio

God damnit from the thumbnail I thought this was a real fullsize truck. Carry on...
Chaos Descent yeah same lol
Chaos Descent same
Chaos Descent same
Chaos Descent me to
4 Different sets of tires in the video, each of them installed on this truck. Which ones were YOUR favourite?!
RCSparks Studio u shod us the white 1s thay look more real
RCSparks Studio class white
The classic white tires fit the tuck well but to give better performance I would go with the flat irons.
RCSparks Studio you should use the sealed tire
sealed tires
Man, from the thumbnail, I thought this was a full size truck. Was completely amazed when it turned out to be RC. Nice work!
Tony Dew same here
Tony Dew Me too!
lmao got me too!!
Tony Dew too
Same
Thanks for the shout out Aaron, i agree. this need to see the trails and make it even better.
my to favorite trucks. I can't believe it. so so sweet. thank you very much for the look.
Can't lie I'm a sucker for the scale look!
Love that old school Chevy body. The rust and overall look of the paint works really well together.
BTW that is a huge ass motor :)
That body is SICK!!! I've done that kind of weathering in Model Railroading for years... but never thought of applying those techniques on R/C Rigs. Hmmmmm.....
And I never knew that RC4WD made a Hard Body Blazer - WITH opening hood! When I'm done helping my friend, who's family is an awful situation, that's something I want to get.
Flat Irons on the white Steelies is my choice....
I LOVE those Puller Tires! So much Badass!!
Murph
out of all your RC's this one is my favorite and I like the white one's they keep it classic
RC create I personally liked the overkill black semi wit the tracks
RC create Chevy Lover here bros.
BlackSmith RC yup Chevy all the way
I like Fords..... lol
i think ford is overrated they are unreliable
those white rims and tires were awesome looking. that body is detailed amazingly.
😂I actually thought it was a real truck great job.👍
all tires are good, but the white wheels look amazing with that paintjob
I like the white rims with a agressive tire the second choice is great too. Maybe if you widen the fenders at the bottom a bit you won’t get the tire rub with bigger tires. Always love your vids. Best rc shows ever and I love that your wife supports you and the hobby as well and your son will enjoy to too. So nice to see. From your BC Canadian neighbour
I love the look of those old school looking rims and them tractor tires flat and wide I bet they are great in the snow
I Gotta Say. What a spectacular achievement made by this guy. this is an amazing work of art.
Great Build and very cool update for he Chevy 👍👍
I love that you did all 3 tires nice.... beast mode
That Blazer is amazing. I had a '76 and it looked very similar other than the color. Mine was brown and white with a black front left fender lol, but it also had a body lift, 36 inch BFG's and a 454. We also welded a 6 inch high scratch built bumper on the front of it to bypass some gates... I was a teenager when I had it but wow I miss it.
The maintenance on my RCs is my favorite part, I enjoy taking them apart, especially if it's for the first time on a new RC, great video!
and I totally thought this was full-scale by the thumbnail haha
Love that Blazer body. Great paint job.
I like the old scratch up look! wish i could post a pic here i would show ya my freshly finished Bronco all faded and rusted. keep up the great videos.
It's such a beautiful body. Looks great with the white wheels.
My nephew is 2 years old and I always watch your videos together, .great videos as usual. 👍🏻
Big fan of your work my friend. This was my first rig I bought as a 17yr highschool student damn near 18 years ago. I absolutely love the paint job and the white rims made it!! Keep up the good work
That Blazer is SOOOOOO BOSS!!!!
Love the k5.Thank you for the great videos. Stock white looks sweeeet
Thank you so much for explaining everything you do on your crawlers I have just bought the boom racing d110 land rover defender pickup and as I am new to crawlers I find this very helpful
second rim choice is my favourite! that think has sooo much power!
gotta love the ol' classic Chevy
BEAST of a Truck!
Love your set-up.
if i had that many rcs i would never be bored
Video Very well done! Looks awesome!
That’s the coolest thing I’ve ever seen ! Looks so real !
Wow I remember that video..owe snapp it's you captain Spalding ..this is the guy inspired me to buy this rig!!!I want those same wheels
NICE truck I like the tires with the white rims.
I so thought u were working on a full scale blazer for a sec cause of mini me
Capo did SUCH an amazing job on it.. I figured I would use it! Glad you like it :)
Well it took looking past the shocks to c there wasn't V8 pipes to realize not a real one this was b4 I started watching it
The thumb nail looks like a life size K5! Freakin awesome!
Nice maintenance philosophising there Medic. It's really satisfying getting under the bonnet for the first time and realising that yes you can fix it AND put it back together :)
Super
I just love the 2.2s Medic. I have them on my Scx 10 II I am getting! Great video!
looks good what ever way you go my Friend
Love the scale stock tire and wheel but maybe just a little rust on the rims, great vid
well put together video, very descriptive and novice friendly. good work!
that's my favorite rig of yours and the white tires fit it perfect
Your channel is so cool, and I like how you are clean cut and get to the point.
The classic look!
i like the the white rims and tire set-up..
awesome bro
Good video. Nice going.
The camera's perspective makes your 'normal' sized garage appear as a miniature RC repair shop! Subscribed!
Awesome rig! Hope to be able to do a build like this someday.
Love that truck more then my own truck lol
In the next film with this truck, I will take the topper off for you.. its simply boss. Love me a classic square body pickup :)
It can't get any better than a square body!
that truck has some sick power can't wait to see some videos. can't do much around home unless it's waterproof with all the rain
could u make a farmtruck off street outlaws truck that would be cool
AWESOMENESS
to keep from losing grub screws...place a small section of heat shrink sleeve over the drive shaft then once your grubs are tight, slide the shrink wrap over them and heat it up.
I own a 87 k5 blazer and I absolutely love it!
Cant believe I thought that was a real Blazer in the pic! Cool toy!! But thanks any how see ya!!
Hi my name is Lake I would like to thank you. I really like your videos I have been watching you for six years you got me into the rc hobby I have a traxxas slash platinum,traxxas ford raptor and a traxxas summit thankyou so much for for your awesome videos keep up the good work!!!!
Nice rig. Back some time ago I had a 1/8 Blazer that was fully channeled frame and axles made to scale out of metal. Wish I still had and knew who made it.
I really like the rust effect on that 86 body 👍
Classic white! Maybe get some new tires for the wheels one day.
Nice tip about using 2 grub screws on driveshafts medic will defiantly be trying that out 👍🏽👍🏽
Not even gonna lie that thumbnail got me. Totally though it was real.
***** Amazing how realistic it is now days!
I love the looks of those K5 hardbodies but I could have one with the fact I have a tendency to roll my truck off steep banks!
That looks so real a thought that was a real life 4X4
Classic wheels!
This has become my favorite truck in the collection quickly MeDiC. The Ascender is still there and of course Black Widow. This truck though looks just gorgeous! Those pulling tires scale to size better, but mainly as a pulling truck, it looks scale. Great vids as always brother! Look forward to another year full of them!
great video! and just for future reference thats a 73 to 78 blazer :)the 79 and 80 where with rectangular top headlights and the 82 to 87 had the 2 squares and the horizontal lights like the Vaterra Ascender. love the truck and and the paint scheme tho!
The classic 1.9's would look sweet in regular trail riding and 2.2 pits with the pulling!!
0:10 one of my favorite rc trucks love the paint job and the fake rsut paint and i like all the rcs u have nice builds love the vids keep up the good work and if ur son takes over channel i will still be watching💯
awesome collection you have!
Who else would live in his shop hahaha I know I would! That's one wicked nice shop medic! :)
putbulls! it fits the look of the truck. lifted blazer little rusty with sbc and 40" tall tires. reminds me of the first truck i ever drove
I like the first set of tires
i like the OLD School & the 2.2 beadlock rims put some chains on those tires for the SNOW & ICE
my friend
Nice video like always good job !!
Dude I have that same table in my kitchen lol!! Awesome!!
I like the flat iron tires they seem to work awesome in all conditions
love it dude!!
I love this RC and I've always wanted a 1978 Blazer. we had one when I was a kid. It was beat and a ugly sky blue color but it was sweet. Believe it or not we actually took it up Mt Washington. the highest mountain in the Northeastern United States.... I personally like the white scaled look. Take those rims and put better tires on them. Problem solved. I do dig the original puller tires the most. Reminds me of watching the truck pulls on TV when I was little.
Love your vids bro you inspired me to get my first rc car and inspired me to get into the hobby keep up the great work nice truck to
I love this rig have to say my favorite just sick man
Very good video...
I love the rust on the body. Classic. My favorite chevy body style. Square body. Miss my 77 Scottsdale. Hahaha. Beautiful body
love watching the upgrades on the RC trucks, too bad you don't have any helicopters ya do upgrades or repairs on... everything ya do, goes into real detail and i enjoy it
nice collection
the tires with the white wheels look great and should have good traction in both mud and snow. i have a very similar tread on my jeep and they are great
Classic all the way!!
those tires match perfect
the last ones look sick
Classic ones
Great update, man, 1st video of 2017. Keep up the awesome work on these things, dude! :)
love the k5
Crazy tires
love the k5 medic
