3 EASY PAYMENTS !!! Really enjoy your channel man. It's my go to for crawling, i just started in this hobby a few weeks ago an it's great! Used to run nitro cars back in the early 90's.
Francis you inspired me to buy the exact same truck for my father and he is now obsessed with rc rock crawling! He has done many many upgrades like portal axles and a fusion motor esc. He also did all lights including the dashboard. As soon as it’s finished we will try to make a video to post here on TH-cam. Your great review was extremely helpful when buying this truck. Keep on with the great and highly informative videos !
I went trx4 chassis kit + injora d110 hardbody. Get all the upgradability of the trx4 and the cool factor of a hardbody. Enjoying this build immensely!
@@GIOTubes yea your build is very cool, gonna watch more. www.ebay.com/itm/Yeah-Racing-Metal-Roll-Cage-w-Rack-LED-Light-Bar-TRX-4-Defender-YEA-TRX4-051-/153525112404?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0 Do you think this will work on the INJORA, I might go INJORA body like you but scx10ii Got some people recommending that over the TRX4.
My concern for many of these non-standard size kits is the lack of replacement parts when stuff breaks. Body looks amazing though, I'd like to see more 1/8th scale trail rigs from the mainstream market.
The parts that would normally break you can make yourself. Only stuff hard to do is gears and intricate plastic mouldings. But with old broken parts caches like mine I just take larger parts make them smaller or make new parts from other broken stuff. I always collect weird things and my wife thinks I’m crazy. Than, once in a while it really pays off. Suspension arms, supports for my monster trucks are all made by myself and they never break. Also replace all shitty hardware and by Steele or go titanium if you want maximum sheer strength
We're diving into this thing now. Will have another video. I don't think aftermarket will support this. We have a 3d printer though and some crew that have skills.
@@RCReviewChannel I just received this truck and judging by the instructions the company gives you, it seems not even the company(Double E) cares about aftermarket or replacement parts.Its a great platform to add your own electronics or whatever.Are the diffs metal if anyone know?I want to get the motor and esc that is recommended in the the second or third video of this vehicle by him.
@@RCReviewChannel yes they got me for 75.00 on shipping for this but I had the coupon which cut it down to 45 ,Theres coupon codes that can save you an easy 30-40 bucks ..Every time I buy from there I make sure I have one
Hello Sir, Thank you for your reviews. I bought the Double EE and upgraded to a better ESC and a better brushed motor and it has absolutley no torque. travels on flat surfaces but cant climb over anything. Any idea?
Ok.. thinking about a crawler, desk show truck thing. Lately I enjoy building ultimate show trucks more then running then in the dirt. I have two I'm currently building. Mojave V2 and a Baja Rey 1/10. Thanks for showing.
Hi i bought this land rover 3days back and now its not working. How could i identify the problem like if something is wrong with the esc or with the receiver ? i have no clue about where to start with ... any help is much appreciated !!
Damn brother! That car is huge :D I just received a Gladiator today and though it was pretty big :P Had the Doulbe-E on my wish list as well :P Great video as always! :D
I really enjoy your channel. I'm just getting into crawling. I have been a basher for years and crawling seems so enjoyable. I ordered the gen 7 to start out with. I have 3s and 2s batteries. Can that model handle 3s. Redcat recommend 2s but 3s for experience drivers. I'm light on the throttle as I run my 6s bashers better then my buddies on 4s. What do you recommend for performance but not over stressing it. Is there any benefit to 3s on a crawler? I'm not looking for speed. Thank you.
There might be some setting in the esc to change the crawler reverse setup? Maybe google that Francis. Some new electronics and new tires and wheels and a few upgrades and it might be a badass big crawler. Lol. I e been waiting for some company to make a 1/5 crawler that was nice. More realistic and scale😁👍
I don't know much of this hobby, but is it simple to upgrade parts on this RC rover?. I want to buy my first crawler for FPV conversion and this body seems like it has plenty of room for an FPV setup.
Thats sweet not big on hard body but thats a easy fix lol needs a hobbywing 1080 and a flysky gt5 rx would make it way better a crawler thanks for sharing Francis
I had one last year. The thing was junk. So many parts broke on it. If you want an excellent 1/8 scale crawler, check out the Traction Hobby Founder 2 or Cragsman.
I need more info on this. Like does it use 12mm hex’s? Are the electronics upgradable? Can we drop in a brushless setup and a new RX/TX I need a better tear down review please
Hello. :-) Did you had chance to change the servo? If yes, witch one did you choose. I've been learning a lot with your channel. Thanks to you I've already have the GT remote and the Fusion Pro. ;-) BTW, do you have a video talking about shocks? Did no find it in your channel.
Nice review as usual Francis! Have you checked to see if the wheel hubs are the standard 1/10th size? In other words, can we just bolt on sets of 1/10 wheels/tires?
Really great review....nice to see you get so excited about it. I would too. If you don't mind answering me, where did you get the driver. He looks awesome.
Can you tell me if a Barbie will fit this Defender as a driver? If so, my daughter will want this truck and then she will give me my Rochobby MB Jeep back. 😀
hey, which crawler can you recommend me? by now im thinking about trx 4 blazer or bronco, axial scx10 gladiator and the emo but if u have better ones tell me please!
@@RCReviewChannel yea the v2 has a shorter wheelbase making it look slightly more scale as well as the tow shackles and steel driveshafts so a definite upgrade. Mine has been holding up extremely well. Nothing broken at all, running it on 3s since I got it.
Interesting. For sure the body is great (plastic quality?) and hard is possible to paint as you like better. Quality of metal??? Nice original rims but tires need higher shoulder and tread better not to speak about. When I think at USA GEN 8 $ 299,00 it suggest that cinese are lifting prices more then quality........ Ciao Nanni
@@georgefisher8568 First off, I learnt a lot from you RC maestros on TH-cam, everything I tried on the truck is from shows like yours. Now, I added a lot of weight to lower parts: brass links, much heavier tires: I wound lead coils round the round metal inserted into the wheel, then I used hard springs:2mm wire the springs were made of, and I think it worked, at least it suited what I'm aiming at with it.
3 EASY PAYMENTS !!! Really enjoy your channel man. It's my go to for crawling, i just started in this hobby a few weeks ago an it's great! Used to run nitro cars back in the early 90's.
If we're not having fun, then what's the point. Right??????
@@RCReviewChannel Bingo !
@@RCReviewChannel does it have inner finders?
Cant believe Im just seeing this! What are the dimensions. I think you said 1/7 scale so wonder how far off it is from fitting an SCX6.
Francis you inspired me to buy the exact same truck for my father and he is now obsessed with rc rock crawling! He has done many many upgrades like portal axles and a fusion motor esc. He also did all lights including the dashboard. As soon as it’s finished we will try to make a video to post here on TH-cam. Your great review was extremely helpful when buying this truck.

I think a small thing like lights make a RC so much more appealing
We're gonna add a bunch more lights to this.
I went trx4 chassis kit + injora d110 hardbody. Get all the upgradability of the trx4 and the cool factor of a hardbody. Enjoying this build immensely!
I’m thinking of doing the same thing,
What did you do for a roof rack system.
I like the TRX4 defender roll cage/roof rack.
@@havyglass I used the stock trx4 roll cage and roof rack. Dimensions are just right but need to do some dremel and drilling to mount it.
@@GIOTubes thanks, finally some clarification.
Will deff be doing this now.
@@havyglass you can check my build for reference, got lots of videos on its progression so far.
@@GIOTubes yea your build is very cool, gonna watch more.

Do you think this will work on the INJORA,
I might go INJORA body like you but scx10ii
Got some people recommending that over the TRX4.
My concern for many of these non-standard size kits is the lack of replacement parts when stuff breaks. Body looks amazing though, I'd like to see more 1/8th scale trail rigs from the mainstream market.
replacement parts is a concern for sure!!
The parts that would normally break you can make yourself. Only stuff hard to do is gears and intricate plastic mouldings.

Also replace all shitty hardware and by Steele or go titanium if you want maximum sheer strength
This would be a real concern for a normal fast RC car but with a crawler, you’re unlikely to break things unless you have a really nasty fall.
I would play with that like a little boy my neighbors would think I lost the rest of my mind . Too Cool !
Our poor neighbors. :)
This is the first banggood product I’ve seen that’s made me go ‘WOW I want this’
We'll dig into this deeper. the body is definitely legit.
Room for improvements for sure, if the after market can get behind this, it could turn out to be a great trail truck.
We're diving into this thing now. Will have another video. I don't think aftermarket will support this. We have a 3d printer though and some crew that have skills.
@@RCReviewChannel I just received this truck and judging by the instructions the company gives you, it seems not even the company(Double E) cares about aftermarket or replacement parts.Its a great platform to add your own electronics or whatever.Are the diffs metal if anyone know?I want to get the motor and esc that is recommended in the the second or third video of this vehicle by him.
At the end of last year, it was available at banggood for about $208 with a 20% coupon. It was priced at $ 260 with shipping from Germany.
Yeah they keep messing with the price. Shipping is pricey too.
@@RCReviewChannel yes they got me for 75.00 on shipping for this but I had the coupon which cut it down to 45 ,Theres coupon codes that can save you an easy 30-40 bucks ..Every time I buy from there I make sure I have one
Looking good at 1/7- 1/8 scale the bigger the better, definitely getting one, thanx for making the video
Thank you SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH for listing the price in thumbnail, it keeps them honest with pricing... Im looking to purchase one for my wife.
Hello Sir, Thank you for your reviews. I bought the Double EE and upgraded to a better ESC and a better brushed motor and it has absolutley no torque. travels on flat surfaces but cant climb over anything. Any idea?
Like it but are spare parts available? I don’t get anything unless I know spare/ upgrade parts are available
I think you should take a look at the TRACTION HOBBY FOUNDER 2
will do
That thing with aluminum wheels, good foams and tires, a 25kg servo, HW1080 and a 27T TrailMaster can be a really nice Trail Truck.
Are the lights and radio difficult to change over to new HW1080 ?
This seems like a great family rc that you never intend to try to upgrade.
🤣🤣🤣 Puts in in second gear "OH SHIT". Love your videos my friend!
Wow... really scale looking body. I doubt it's crazy capable as a crawler but with some upgrades it could be. Thanks
We'll did into it. With at 6 lb body though, it will always be more of a scaler.
@@RCReviewChannel Cool. Yeah that's true.
Ok.. thinking about a crawler, desk show truck thing. Lately I enjoy building ultimate show trucks more then running then in the dirt. I have two I'm currently building. Mojave V2 and a Baja Rey 1/10. Thanks for showing.
very cool looking body, very nice reviev :) thumbs up for Francis
The body is pretty much flawless
Nice! hopefully for custom upgrades for the (Double E), your ideas can do wonderous things for this beautiful model, Great Review (B+)
Got my car yesterday but the front right light is not working, any idea what to do? thanks
3:45
And now we're in second gear. oh s*** XD
I broke the front axle ball almost immediately, is there a suggested axle replacement you know off. All I can find are 1/10 scale.
How goes it .i crack up that u are like big kid and actually get excited about this awsome hobby .i am same way take care have great day everyone
Hi i bought this land rover 3days back and now its not working. How could i identify the problem like if something is wrong with the esc or with the receiver ? i have no clue about where to start with ... any help is much appreciated !!
Do all y’all remember when biff ran into the cow poo. Great video my man
for sure!
hi. can i found axel bevel gear on this one? 😪 i search lot of time i cant find that brand's spare parts.
Damn brother! That car is huge :D I just received a Gladiator today and though it was pretty big :P
Had the Doulbe-E on my wish list as well :P
Great video as always! :D
RC4WD CChand Traxxas TRX-4 Defender Camel Bumper w/Winch Mount & IPF Lights how close is this to fitting the EE 1/7 truck
They release for hobby grade too, nice

What are the parts replacement like. For example you strip the gears in the axle or transfer case
No portal axles? What a bummer. I would go for the Traxxas for sure. Tanks for your video.
Do you think it can fit a Neca retro cloth figure?
Would Redcat marksmen axles and links fit on this thing?
I love how when you zoom in you make this face like jack nicholson in the shining.
Do you think it could be a contender platform with some better electrics etc?
We're diving in now and upgrading. Video coming.
@@RCReviewChannel Super Awesome!!
U do RC and bikes. All the good stuff in life✌️
I really like this platform, but I don't like the running gear. Can the be converted to the HOBBYWING motor/esc combo?
Can be converted for sure. But all-in-one receiver has to be replaced too.
I had to order one! Now I have to wait patiently for arrival. Thanks for real review as always.
I saw the lipo video, is it bad to only have one lipo battery When I have 2 other NIMH batteries?
Will they fit 5 inch scale action figures
Nice overview👍👍 For that price how could you go wrong!
Interesting! The wheels are really scale, but the tires are too wide. What size are the wheels?
Pretty cool rig. 1080 esc and a better servo which you have to do with most RTR's and your on a winner
There might be some setting in the esc to change the crawler reverse setup? Maybe google that Francis. Some new electronics and new tires and wheels and a few upgrades and it might be a badass big crawler. Lol. I e been waiting for some company to make a 1/5 crawler that was nice.

Which would you recommend, the Traxxas TRX3 Defender or the Double E Defender?
Can the axels be upgraded or no?
Hi can you send me the links for the upgrades I got my truck to day
Thats sweet not big on hard body but thats a easy fix lol needs a hobbywing 1080 and a flysky gt5 rx would make it way better a crawler thanks for sharing Francis
Digging in now.
@@RCReviewChannel cant wait to see the end result.
I had one last year. The thing was junk. So many parts broke on it. If you want an excellent 1/8 scale crawler, check out the Traction Hobby Founder 2 or Cragsman.
Finally.....someone who gets it!
Right on. $1100 though is a wee bit pricey for the Traction Hobby.
@@RCReviewChannel you must be looking at a scalper website. They're only $600 from Asiatees
Can these handle 3 s?
I need more info on this. Like does it use 12mm hex’s? Are the electronics upgradable? Can we drop in a brushless setup and a new RX/TX I need a better tear down review please
It's happening now.
Spettacolare...davvero bello ...io ho la prima versione in colore arancione ...ma dove hai trovato il personaggio ... davvero molto realistico
hello,is no diferential on this car?
My question is does it have inner fenders?
I’m curious how this would do with decent tires
we will try for sure!
E110 land rover wheel base 110".
110"÷14.5"=7.5 scale.
Thank you for sharing this very informative video! 👍👍👍🚙🚙
More large scale crawlers please !!
Thank you for sharing! Pretty neat LR110!

Are those metal axels?
Got short on the headlights on the last turn or the steering as well.
It was glitching because of water in the receiver.
Hello. :-) Did you had chance to change the servo? If yes, witch one did you choose.
I've been learning a lot with your channel. Thanks to you I've already have the GT remote and the Fusion Pro. ;-)

I have a question i have a red cat axe edition scout ll i go to turn left and my truck goes right how do i fix this can anyone please help
Do you have a new discount code?
Has anyone come across a defender utility body for the TRX4 Defender? Thanks.
As usual, good vehicle. The steering servo when its not hysterical, not so good 😂
Complimenti... bel video... ciao dall'Italia
Really great review....nice to see you get so excited about it. I would too.
If you don't mind answering me, where did you get the driver. He looks awesome.
can you do a review on the new rgt crawler that just released ,rgt ex86181, looked promising
Very expansive price for models d110!!!! But beautiful 👍👍👍
Just big wheels not good. little 96mm is good for me😉
Crazy super scale!
Thank you for the awesome videos and reviews.
I love this channel, you are a great host
Welp another thing I'm buying from Banggood, god damn they get a lot of my money.
:) Sorry, not sorry.
Waw, two speed is more value added for that vehicle, very nice, hardbody, detail awesome
Do the Double E Defender 110 agaist a MN999 please
Can you tell me if a Barbie will fit this Defender as a driver? If so, my daughter will want this truck and then she will give me my Rochobby MB Jeep back. 😀

could a 1/6 scale character fit in it?

@@anthonytuccillo6274So if this handles 3s, any limitations on the discharge rate?
the receiver situation could be modified. this has a ton of potential.
Have the orange one of these pretty cool but the wheels are 2.8s not 2.2s
It's $358 for the rig but it's an additional $134 for shipping. That's what makes me not want to pull the trigger on it.
same here did you get it?

I think you need to put some bigger tires on that
I agree for its size bigger tires would make a difference
I own the real thing, but I really want one of these, not very easy to find in the UK though.
