Finishing 130 Gates on 3 Wheels - Insane Cheap Crawler
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 มิ.ย. 2022
- This is my FTX Outback 3 Paso. I'd say it's the BEST Cheap RC Crawler money can buy! I recently took a trip to the East Anglian Scale Trail (EAST) and completed the 130 Gate (check point) Woodland Trail. The FTX was a beast!

All them beeps and not one “unexpected item in the bagging area” 😂
Brilliant 😂
BWAHAHAHAHAAA.! 😂 😂 😂.!
I am here from the previous video for this little beast. And I got one myself because of all the positives you said about it. Was scouting FB marketplace for one and managed to find. It came rtr with upgrades as well, 3s li-po, better tyres, weights on the front wheels and a 25kg servo. The price was more than better.
Thank you for the great videos Phil!
Who cares what you drive as long as you are having fun....right?
I fall back to my default statement; I wish we had these RC's in Canada!
This course was definitely my favourite part of the event. Glad you got most of it recorded Phil as hardly took any pics or video. Little FTX took it like a champ!
Yes, was so fun! I must have deleted the first file when I was making room on the SD Card... grrrr... finger trouble!
Great little truck, proves that every one can have a good time regardless of your rig. looks like you enjoyed the trail too. See you for EAST 23?
Yes, it makes you see that it’s not all about how much you spend 👌. EAST 23 certainly (depending on the date)
The little Jimny that could!
I’ve a couple of MST Jimny’s, really need to get them out after seeing this…
Yes, it really impresses me every time!
Your welcome from hero number 2😃😃😃 and thanks for the gift have had fun in my postage stamp of a garden with it 😁😁😁🛻🛻🛻
Haha, thanks for the help mate. I’d have not finished the course if you weren’t there 😅. Enjoy the little crawler 👌
You're the only one that finished with three wheels that's gotta mean something
Certainly does
Really nice one, Phil! Excellent music (apart from at the end, where I admittedly had to laugh).
Whoa! That was quite a whiparound!
What a winner last time I took 3 wheels off road it was a motorcycle and sidecar
Great video Phil of a great trail. I was really pleased with my Texan but your Outback 3 stole the show. A really enjoyable day at EAST.
Epic finish! Really am enjoying these crawl videos. Thanks.
beast mode engaged
😎👌
That was pretty awesome even though the Titans kept falling off it's still push through and you still got to finish that's pretty awesome my friend good job
Pretty impressive little truck, Phil! 😃
Fantastic ride there and review!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I knew a good set of tyres would give this truck a huge boost in performance. Looks like a very capable little truck now.
Yes, it was awesome 👍
The tires that come on it are actually really nice, they just aren't aggressive. What you get for the price is insanity. I paid almost the same for my little scx24 Bronco that isn't capable at all 🤣
I'm loving this rig, it look a very good one. Had a Jimny for years, put it in my wish list now!
He'll yeah brother! ( as Cleetus would say). Excellent video. I've added more rcs to my list just from your videos. Thank you for the excellent videos.
That is a great little truck! I definitely see one of these in our future...
Was good to catch up with you 👍
Awesome. Love the finish.
Really love that wee finger pointer man lol 😝
3 wheels on my wagon...... well done Phil.
Awesome RC and great off-roading adventure
Thanks dude
Wow I’m genuinely impressed. For $150 that’s not bad at all.
loved the opening spinarama!
The comedy at gate 127 was awesome 😆 . Great vid!
Looks good man, I have been contemplating cutting the bumper on mine. I don't do any competitions, mostly just what ever I can find a walk away. Although I wish we had more RC competitions in my area. Thanks for the fun vid. My Jimny is still going strong. Happy Crawling! Stay safe out there.
It makes it so much better with that little extra clearance
Nice run . Great video
Look's like you had a nice time there.love that 3 wheel finish!!
that was a fun video bud, good old ftx 👍🐿
we went out of town today while the wife and daughter were in the mall I was crawling my scx24 out front on the rock's.People stop took interest so we talk and I told them about you and that you were a straight shooter and if they wanted to know anything about Rcs they should check out your channel
Did great and I think it's a good looking truck too. Nice work 👍🏼
Yes, was so good!
Nicely edited video. Like the jeeps too.
Awsome.
CHEERS
Gauranga!
Made that an awesome little truck.
i got a PASO 3.0...I sent it back...
The body was cracked out of the box, the NI-MH battery wasn't able to charge on the provided charger, and the controller was acting crazy...
I was pissed, it looked great...
Got a second hand SCX10 First Gen, upgraded it a lot since, and really happy with it :)
Great video great little crawler👍🏻👍🏻
Cheers dude
I had the 1st FTX outback and it was superb, I even got the motor so hot it sizzled after I used a 2200mah lipo (2S it was the extra time) I cooled it down under the cold tap as it was melting the plastic around it then let it dry, a year later sold it still fully functional. I did replace the steering servo that failed (non heat related).
Gate 96 had me shouting at the screen, a proper edge of your seat moment 👌
Nice run 😊
haha, cheers mate. It was so fun, and took quite a bit of time to get around!
Glad you enjoyed yourself 👍
Pretty cool Tomley 👍✌️
HI PHIL LOOKS LIKE A GREAT PLACE TO HAVE FUN. I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU THIS TRUCK IS GREAT VALUE LOOKS GOOD AND PREFORMS BRILLIANT. WHAT MORE DO U NEED.
THANKS FOR POSTING SIR HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT WEEK, 🇬🇧👍🏼
Cheers Mike. I had an awesome weekend. Looking forward to another 👌
Mighty impressive stuff only a few mods and most of them free! I love my bashers but this things just piqued my interest even more. Great footage. Alan, Alaan! gets me everytime 😂
I have the RGT version and for the price i was blown away, it's really nice and considering it's around the price of a 1/24 scale these days and this is a 1/10 scale with decent electronics and nice scale accessories. Full led lights, and really nice wheels and tires. It's insane really.
Yes, so good for the price 👌
@@TomleyRC I gave mine to my 6 year old son lol. He needed a rig to go out with his Dad. Now I noticed they have the bronco body so I may have to get that one too for the "Wife"😅
Yeah I agree I just got my first RGT a few weeks ago never even heard of RGT till I came across one on ebay and for the price it's a freaking beast I love my RGT crawler
@@MrTomRcMan Which one did you get? There's a lot of new ones out. I really want the land cruiser one.
@@anthonytuccillo6274 I got the RGT rock cruiser v2
Another great vid Phil, there's nothin wrong with FTX in my book, i have a Kanyon-which i must say is outstanding & an Outlaw=again a great RC ., done a few mods to both, but the best mod was on the Kanyon by fitting rear wheel steering, it will now go anywhere & do everything i ask of it.
Yes, very capable… and plenty of free mods and cheap ones to do
Nice driving. Cool mod,s that was a neat track. Love how the truck can drive on 3 tires awsome video. Peace tomley.
👍
Didn't really get 'crawling', but the excellent video and course when shown with other cars looked great.
By the way, if the nyloc nuts weren't in the retainer nylon on the stub axles you can actually reverse the nut so the nylon bites first. Not a long term fix but gets you out of a spot ! Best to 'pre-thread' the nylon insert on a bolt of same size first as easier then to start the threading on process.
Keep up the great content please.
Cheers
ftx crawlers are pretty awesome.i got the ftx fury and it's a beast.very very capable trucks.those v3s are incredibly good aswell. ftx can certainly make a good crawler 👍👍
Yes, they are better than people think
@@TomleyRC much so
awesome video cool crawler nice to see the hand again lol
Haha, cheers Mike
My daughter wants the hand so bad lol she said that she would build a frame for it and put it on the wall 🤣
Awesome video bud, Was a brilliant day! Roll on the next one 😎
Certainly was 👌
I liked the looks of that truck reminded me of the old school jeep cherokee =)
Thanks to you I decided to chop my bumper off 😄🤣😂. I have also added rubber bands around the shocks to help with the uphill. Man can she climb. I will have a video up soon with the new mods. Thanks for the footage. Happy Crawling! Stay safe out there.
What is this rubber bands in the shocks? How is this done?
Hilarious! Wicked little rig though!
Nice one mate.!
There's nowt wrong with the FTX stuff, I've got a few & they put a smile on my face, especially the DR8.!
Now we know why it's called the Outback 3
Yes lol
🤣😂🤣 great footage pal 😁🙋♂️
Haha, cheers mate 👌
Nice one mate some 3 wheel trailing, if that doesnt tell you how good that little thing Is, nothing will, even do to be fair, the video with scx6 was great to!!
I was a little gutted Im missing EAST after talking to Sharky 😩 after seeing nothing but tractor ruts & paint for a course I’m not so disappointed 🤔 long way to go to pay and do what I can in the field next door 🤷♂️ as for FTX it definitely a brand I’m exploring more of since getting the out back 3.0 mini and recently the Bugster that thing has been awesome even surviving longer than a Senton at the Pump track 🤯 mainly due to driver skill I suspect but still very suprised by it, also a few people in my fb group have made them into a half decent Crawler as well 😎
That was one of 2 large trails, along with some ‘9 line’ courses, class 1, class 2, class 3 comps (on decent rocks). Lake trail, Basher area, mud, water and lots of like minded individuals. This is just a snippet of the whole day 😀👍
The camera doesn't do the terrain justice, some of those climbs were insane. Very steep in places, and the "9 lives" or whatever it was called bonus bits were very challenging.
@@TomleyRC i was happy in my blissful ignorance before, now I’m back to having FOMO 😂
@@rcchallenge8626 😅
Good looking truck. Perhaps Duratrax DeepWoods would be a good choice for muddy conditions rather than the Proline Hyrax?
Yes, these are a good all rounder. But for mud there are some better options (just have to make sure they are not too tall)
would of loved to of come to EAST just to far me. 400 mile round trip from where I live.need more events in the south west.
SST is down your way 👌
@@TomleyRC I'll have to keep eyes open.👍
@@TomleyRC just been looking at sst and yea it's pretty close to me.cheers mate👍👍.ill be there in September for sure
Glad I'm not the only one with these issues!! The axles need to be just a couple mm's longer!!
The offset on the wheels meant the wheel bits didn’t quite have enough bite on the nylon
hahaha. Awesome. Nice camera work.
Thanks dude
I have 5 FTX cars (2 Zorro's, Mauler, Vantage, Outback Mini 2), and they're all great. Yes, they might not be the strongest, but they're cheap to fix. The Mauler, like the Paso, is great straight from the box, and with a few careful mods, makes it perform like a car much more expensive.
My TRX4 keeps shedding wheels, just like that. I've switched to the long sleeve nuts, with a dab of thread lock, or PTFE tape, to stop it backing out. The PTFE works really well. 👍🏻
I've been looking for a second hand RGT EX86110, but having no luck. The duty is daft, trying to order one from China now, with the increased delivery costs. I might look for one of these instead. 👍🏻
Yes Rob, not the best, but certainly really good value for money 👌
@@TomleyRC I just managed to bag 2 RTR chassis, with everything but the shells for £140!!! Bargain!!! 👍🏻😎
Bugger!! Buying a stock body is extortionate!!!! Not much choice as well, due to the wheelbase!! 🤷🏻♂️
Hands down the best for the money and parts availability. FTX/RGT lines are it. I personally have the FTX FUTURA, RGT CRUSHER (Outback Texan), DESERT FOX (Outback Geo), RGT RESCUER (Outback Tracker) and RGT TRACER. Thinking about getting the RGT TRAMPLE (newer version of Mauler) also. Highly recommend for everyone to buy as is and/or modify/upgrade to your standards.
The trample is amazing, absolutely amazing, but I don't know where to get spare parts sadly. I might end up using axial parts of something eventually, when something breaks... Honestly not sure.
Well good mate. Upgrades are sweet. But In the hands of tomley, it will be sweeter. Lovely review mate.
Cheers dude
Great episode.
With the wheel nut… turn it round so the nylon goes on first maybe?
Picked one of these up at the weekend for a first stab at using crawlers. Very impressed but the steering servo is already dead so that needs a nice new metal geared one
I have the ravine now I want this also!
And why didn’t you bring your Kyosho mad van?? Lol. I had my one out lol
Great to see you again Phil and thank you for the shafts to. 👍🏻👍🏻
Did pretty dam good on 3 wheels for that last stretch lol....
Hi phil i got set of 4 super swamper tyres 2.2s for twenty quid which i dint think was bad they wud look good on the dark blue one of yrs
Yes, that’s a decent price 👌
End ov 56 was deffo a roll
I think this is a great video and demonstrates the qualities of the truck, As in all r/c car events tires make a huge difference. The servo really helped. Would youadvise a change in wheel nuts before going out? How was the course created? It appeared that some areas had been wet and dried up. It looked like a lot fun. Thanks for sharing.
Yes, needs different wheel nuts as the e offset of the new wheels made the stock wheel nuts a little short on the nylon. The place is a 4x4 off-road place, so it’s all the tracks made by them. There were specific areas for the competitions
@@TomleyRC Holding competitions in area rutted and dug into by the 4X4's is a good idea. I wondered why it looked different from the other crawling courses that you shared with us in other videos.
I’d just use a bit of lock tight. Finding different wheel nuts won’t really help as youre still left with the same amount of thread.
Very impressive driver and car.... what was the sense of the event and the rules? It seems very funny and interesting 👍👍💪💪
i did the first test run with my defender Phil
It was an awesome trail! Can’t wait for the next one
You didn't want to cut the bumper off with a Dremel?
I bought some cheap wheels and tires from Injora, and I was so happy versus the factory ones on the HPI FJ Cruiser.
I really want the Bronco model! I'm looking to buy a Ford shuttle bus to build into an RV, otherwise, I'd be buying more RCs. Building a small trailer for camping behind my Forester.
Have you not reviewed the ftx vantage brushless? Sure you're other vid from a while ago is the brushed version.
Bronco? I like it because it reminds me of a Lada Niva!
Yes!
Brilliant video 🤣 if the nyloc is not catching can’t you put the nut on the other way around? 🤷♂️ as a temporary fix.
Your going to have to get more nuts.
Ahhh, wheel nuts.
Not gonna lie. The music made me feel like
I was queuing for a ride at a theme park.
Was the ride worth queueing for haha
👍
Hello there i just got a FTX outback 3.0 Jimny and i was wondering if i should buy the 180 degree 25kg servo or the 270 degree 25kg servo.(sorry if its a dumb question im just getting started into this hobby)
270 degree
Ftx are an amazing brand lots for your money
I agree
Wow the Allie express price isn’t a bad until you see the shipping very close to price of truck
Can you drive this on 2s or 3s?
when is the next event planned for. this place is just down the road from me! I didn't know.
Wonder how a stock trx4 sport will do. Better or worst?
Probably as good, I really rate the TRX4 Sport. But it’s double the price
It went pretty well on 3 wheels 🤣
Yes lol
I’m in the US and I can grab a Danchee Ridgerock easily on Amazon. Between the 2, would you still recommend the FTX over the ridgerock for my first crawler? I’m not new to RC so I can handle upgrades and repairs, I just want the best value long term. Thanks!
The Danchee is a good all rounder, but this thing is a little nicer performing and more ‘scale’
Way different rigs, one is a rock crawler and the other is a scaler/trail truck. The FTX/RGT will crawl rocks but not as capable due to not having the same level of articulation. Overall if you just want something that can do a bit of everything I would say the one in this video is a good choice, I have one and for the money it cannot be beat. The only other rigs that are better than this are ones costing hundreds more. And even then it's not that big of a difference IMO. The Danshee is ok for the price but no parts support really and the quality isn't as good.
I'd like to find the bronco . I like the looks . Seems to be a decent truck . Unfortunately I can't do much of anything right now . Hopefully soon.
Ordered these tyres but the damn, mine are a lot bigger than the originals. Have had to modify the shell to accommodate. Front bumper mod is a 100% must do for these....
You need to get the ‘class 1’ hyrax. The standard ones are quite a bit bigger
@@TomleyRC I believe this is where my error is. Although it is working perfectly fine and grips very well, I do prefer the look of the smaller size tyres. Time to order some more!
3 wheels on my wagon and I'm still rolling along 🤪. Upgrades certainly made it handle the course well. How far do you think it would have got stock Phil ? Cool vid . The little off roader just wants to be a tail dragger lol
It may have struggled a bit on the loose dirt with the stock tyres. The bumper removal is probably the biggest improvement 👌
@@TomleyRC cool
Howcome the drivers side shock Is glued?
Err.. it’s not. Was it just a bit of mud?
@@TomleyRC o it looked like it was glued
Hi sir i really would love to get my hands on one of those 50 mph sand basher. How can you assist me?
Links in the video description 👍
@@TomleyRC thanx will check it out
Thanks man
Just got into the hobby thanks to your amazing content
If you had to choose one which one will it be:
EX86120
EX86181
?
Both really good. I’d go for which looks best for you
@@TomleyRC thanks
I will go for the EX86120 because of the FJ look :)
The knockoffs were just as well
Are you originally from teeside?
🤣 good this
I bought same wheels and they got loose everytime :D they are thicker so the nylon in locknuts doesnt grip the thread enough...
