Just got one of these! Should be in on the 14th and the only thing I didn't like on the shelf model was the wheel/tires and these look perfect I think I'm gonna have to copy you on this one!
Great video showing the tire difference. I'm learning even with higher speed cars how much of a difference tires can make. Agreeing with another commenter on here, definitely seem like a genuine guy, not any more odd then the next person!! Haha Have a great day!
i'm running my capra with rc4wd 2.2 genius fronteira's right now and I love it. no way will I go back to 1.9. it is just so capable. im using the soft springs with the compression nut backed up all the way to the shock cap.
Looks good with the Jconcepts body on it.....2.2 in tires really changes how the Capra acts ....I changed motors CC 2850 to HH 1800 and 1.9 tires I like it better more of a challenge to me...
I like at the end how you was talking about your suspension and how the axles drop and you want to fix that through the shocks I was thinking the same thing but you said it at the end nice job it crawls very nicely though 🤙🏻🔥😎🔥👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I'm personally a fan of a heavy rig. Makes it more realistic. Imo. The 2.2 definitely seem to get you most of the traction you're chasing except for a few hangups on the skid. Maybe a delrin skid could be a future addition? Have you got some weighted wheels or some beef patties or similar to really put the rubber into the rocks?
Why brushless on the capra? And are there brushless motors that have bakes? I have a brushless motor but the brakes won't work. It has a program card with it as well, still the brake doesn't work. Any ideas?
@@ExocagedRC Currently the hobby wing 1080p. 540 can 13turn. I'm in the process of replacing axles. I bought some alloy axles and the front cvds snapped like in 5 seconds. The newer one I ordered are supposed to be hardened steel. We shall see. That and there's not a whole lot of places where we are to crawl so it makes it difficult to know how well the crawlers perform. Take my wife's the only thing I've done to hers is put deep woods on hers and she can pretty much get up anything she want but for a yr and half mine breaks every time I take it out, so in the process of trying to make it mostly bullet proof. Anyway thanks for the reply! Sorry I talk too much lol. Keep up the with the good work and info.
@@davidmeryhew9628 not sure what your problem is you say you have a brushless motor but you have a brushed ESC maybe that's your problem I'm running the hobbywing 1080 as well and it has a decent drag brake
There has been lots of talk of doing the RC4WD internal springs in similar tension to lower the shocks without actual limiters. I personally just swapped mine for 100mm Desert Lizards with 50wt oil. What is the OD of those tires? I'm thinking 1.9 Rock Beast XL or similar Ottsix Voodoos...but the 2.2s you were running don't look too bad.
I'm interested in building a capra kit with 2.2 tires. If I run the hobbywing brushless motor/ esc all in one motor, any advice on lowering the gearing, and fitting that larger motor in the capra, for a super slow high torque crawler?
klampfinger yeah that should run pretty slow and be a great choice for what you want. Some have fit a 10t pinion in there but I could only go as low as 11t.
@@ExocagedRC thank you,I have a two wheel drive stampede,with no motor or ESC,I've been shopping around,yours looks fast and I don't want to drop a lot of money in it right now
I’m thinking about getting this vehicle I’m not sure how it compares to other rock crawlers but this one definitely looks comparative. What are your thoughts
I like it. Rtr is just ok so you’ll want to do some nice mods to really make it perform. I don’t know that there is anything else on the market like it.
Yes it’s easy to do and I ordered everything I need to convert mine about an hour ago. When I do the video I’ll show the process and list all the parts needed.
You make some of the best rc videos! Capra videos especially. Thanks for making these!
The fact that that fits is amazing.

+1👍 so cool. it amazes me how much detail & scale goes into these.
& i like that mudder body too
I love the 2.2 tires on a Capra I have a buddy that runs 2.2 tires in his seen it run today on my RC crawl track did awsome
Thats nice to see a capra with 2.2 wheels and tires
i'm running my capra with rc4wd 2.2 genius fronteira's right now and I love it. no way will I go back to 1.9. it is just so capable. im using the soft springs with the compression nut backed up all the way to the shock cap.
Kyle Thatcher ......if bigger is better, then put some xmaxx tires and rims. You’ll never go back to 2.2. That’s according to your logic.
Xmaxx tyres and wheels on this would be pointless as they would not have nearly enough grip and squishyness
Anthony Pacis all he is saying is 2.2 is the sweet spot. No need to over exaggerate what he said and be that guy.
Does it still have the scale look with 2.2’s? I’ve been considering a class 3 comp rig with this, and 2.2 is allowed I’m pretty sure…
Yeah my go to tire, 1.9's are the ones I run. Rig is looking awesome !! Appreciate you sharing, I watch for more

Very cool - do you have a link to the rims please ?

@@ExocagedRC Thank you very much !!!
I see why they gave it 1.9 stock. It’s unstoppable on 2.2
Looked really good with the 2.2's. Very nice driving in this one as well!
I like the guts, but prefer truck bodies to buggies, so that little demonstration off the top is pure gold. 👍👍👍
Can you please send link for those bodies for Capra

actually now that you mention that I think I do have some beef patties somewhere. I'll have to look and see if I can find them

Mine is currently brushed with the Holmes brxl and Holmes 13t Crawlmaster. What system do you have in yours?

@@sprather84 that was a while ago, I've moved way beyond that issue.

TrailCrawler 203 I’m editing the Pen Spring mod video for tomorrow. It helped quite a bit
@@ExocagedRC Looking forward to it!
in my opinion, the Jconcept body is the way to go for the capra! Good driving
I'm interested in building a capra kit with 2.2 tires. If I run the hobbywing brushless motor/ esc all in one motor, any advice on lowering the gearing, and fitting that larger motor in the capra, for a super slow high torque crawler?
Hi there. Do you think the Hobbywing Axe 1800 KV is a good choice for this vehicle? I like very slow, controlled crawling...
klampfinger yeah that should run pretty slow and be a great choice for what you want. Some have fit a 10t pinion in there but I could only go as low as 11t.
klampfinger if you’re planning to order from eBay I can get you a link to it.
@@ExocagedRC thx for your advice
Looks like it can crawl,have you ever tested how fast the truck is with the 540,like a 🕷 on the rocks👍👍
James Swift it’s as fast as you can drive.
@@ExocagedRC thank you,I have a two wheel drive stampede,with no motor or ESC,I've been shopping around,yours looks fast and I don't want to drop a lot of money in it right now
Could I run 2.2s on a stock Capra with just a pinion gear change?
Axial Capra is the best rc crawler ???
Trx4 sport is the best crawler
Awesome bro, i'm getting mine today, u sold me on my decision lol
Looks better as a 2.2 👍
Those KLRs 2.2 ate that course up possibly with the lower belly the 2.2s might work. It really did well impressively angle🤔
Much better on the spiral stairs. Seems like a wraith but smaller and better articulation stock than wraith
1:13 anyone else see that little lizard in the cinder block on the bottom left corner?
CRCG LoL yeah lots of lizards out there enjoying their new bombproof homes.
It's awesome sir love that tyre's

Exocaged RC Thank you for your feedback I really do appreciate it
Awesome video! What body panels are you using?
Did you make any changes for the capra to run on 2.2 tires
It has the erevo long ends on it to stretch the wheelbase out a bit
What wheels are these?
Cheap 2.2’s off amazon or ebay
What size are the wheels u have on your Capra in this video ?
What's your thoughts on a 4 wheel steer set up on this rig & is it possible
Yes it’s easy to do and I ordered everything I need to convert mine about an hour ago. When I do the video I’ll show the process and list all the parts needed.
@@ExocagedRC thank you very much . will be looking forward to seeing it 👍
Did you stretch it at all?
Nice job
What rims are those??
It's looks and perform better with 2,2!
And thank you for sharing!
nice area to crawl on
great course
Good stuff brother
Very cool brother
Would you say it’s worth getting the 2.2, I just got a Capra and am gonna upgrade the tyres but I don’t know if I should do 2.2 instead of the 1.9s
I like 1.9’s on mine more than 2.2’s.
AAAAmazing😍🤘
cooooool :D
