thanks 👍 quite pleased with the light bar , I have to run the wires properly and fit a tidy battery holder as I'm just using the original switch that comes with the torch atm but battery wont last long as it's only 2 2032,s in there atm but does the job. yes no problem with the water so far 😜 it was submerged a few times 🤣👍
Nice vid👍I saw a video of yours a while ago with your suspension and I noticed that there was less body roll and the wheels didn't hit the body. I decided that, that was the best thing I have done to my ftx kanyon. Thanks for the idea. I wouldn't have thought of doing it if I didn't see your video it has helped with crawling and I am able to get around the side of things without tipping up!!👍👍👍awesome video
thanks for the comment 👍 I found the mod completely transformed the truck, I have put the shox back just to see the difference and it was terrible compared lol.. I also found now I've added a little weight to the front its 10 times better on steep climbs. glad your happy with the mod, it's a must I say 👍 cheers
Cracking footage Marc really good stuff. I love mine as well. Iv done same mads as u and its it's awesome. Iv got the same drone as u as well love them both. Me and the kids have had loads of fun with them. Cheers mate.
fantastic bit of kit isnt it! hours of fun, better with the mods but still good fun standard. that's right the s70 if I remember correctly, again, great fun.. cheers mate 👍
I just have a 4600 battery and the original 540 60t motor and I can do a hour long walk around the woods with lights on. I did upgrade to a 35t and 27t but found over time it chewed up the plastic driveshaft bearings and needed replacing 😂
What battery does it come with I have an arrma senton 3s I’m into sct’s but also want to get into crawlers It looks like a wide out defender 😆 but really cool
Hey dude great vid, very very capable for out the box... I know it says it waterproof, but could I run it through a deep puddle, out the box , if I chose to do so ??
@@009ADVENTURES thanks for the reply dude , great stuff , guessing the same would apply to an ftx mighty thunder aswell ? ( ill leave ya to enjoy ya evening after this lol)
hi I just ordered one of these . when you say you sealed the receiver how did you seal it? what did you use? thank you cant wait, I saw a video of one of these going almost higher then the door meets window , possible without mods?
hi, I used silicone around mine, the box lets water in otherwise. you could put the actual reciever in a balloon and put silicone around the hole and zip tie it. that will work well . it will take a bit of water out the box but not a lot , best seal it 👍
🤞 I know it's an old video and old comment but is there a video on your channel on how to seal it up I did go to look but 5 years worth of vids there alot to go through 😭 great work BTW 🛻
What connector does it use for the 2s you said could I get a 5000mah 2s battery with the right connector for it may you tell me what connector it has plz
the biggest 2s I have is a 3000mah and lasts over an hour, obviously you can get bigger ones that should last longer. plus the esc has lipo cut off as its designed to run lipo so no worries there. just use the biggest you can get theres loads of room in there 👍
So the more mah the more run time, doesn’t effect performance, speed or torque, ok could u plz type in the link to the battery you use and does it come with the right connector for it
you do need to seal the receiver box first as that's not really waterproof but then it's good to go. I would advise that you grease everything first to make it better though 😀👍
Can I ask does it have rear wheel steer? My son has the ftx ravine. That thing is awesome for the £99 I paid for it. The rear wheel steer is a amazing feature and it is indestructible.
sorry for the late reply bud, no it doesn't have rear steer but a lot have converted them, you need another front axel n a few other bits but it can be done. ravine is a great truck too 👍
yes a bit of weight up front will help for sure. and yes bud I recommend them all day, for the price they are great. chassis mod is a must but apart from that your good to go. I've beaten this for 2 years and still do and I've changed very little due to damage. I'm sure you eould love it. I will say they are big more 1/8 scale than 1/10 which to me is a good thing. if you have any more questions feel free to ask. I've lots of videos for mods etc here 👍
it's just some alloy angle straps, I have a video on it . just type in kanyon chassis mod. I believe there is someone selling them on ebay for about £10

Fantastic video again mate! such a durable truck.
thanks, it does seem to cope very well. im more than happy with it 👍
Awesome job my friend loving the light bar it's got some nice flecks to it now looking good great video I'm glad you drowned it first before me😂👍😊👍😊✌👌

Ye I put the spare wheel on the bonnet but I might try put something under the bonnet so that it still look good at the same time 😂
210g sea fishing weight I used as that's what I had in the draw but getting some wheel balance weights soon. anything will work though I suppose.

yes bud I have had all sorts of motors in this over the years but none of them are as good as the original 60t 👍🐿
What battery does it come with
I have an arrma senton 3s I’m into sct’s but also want to get into crawlers
It looks like a wide out defender 😆 but really cool
nice, I have a senton too 🤪 comes with an 1800mah nimh 7.2v but can run a 2s lipo on which it's much better 👍
I’m not sure which 2s LiPo I should buy 🤔
Do u run yours on 2s? LiPo
Hey dude great vid, very very capable for out the box... I know it says it waterproof, but could I run it through a deep puddle, out the box , if I chose to do so ??
thanks bud, they are amazing :) you need to seal the reciever box properly first to dunk it tidy that's all 😃👍
@@009ADVENTURES thanks for the reply dude , great stuff , guessing the same would apply to an ftx mighty thunder aswell ? ( ill leave ya to enjoy ya evening after this lol)
ni problem bud, any questions feel free to ask, I will help if I can.. yes I would assume the thunder is the same as they are virtually same truck

@@009ADVENTURES excellent thats so much for the reply and advice great video
no problem, I have tons of kanyon videos on here about maintenance n stuff if your ever stuck with it. I'm sure you will love it 👍
@@009ADVENTURES yes great ill go through your videos im sure theyll be of great help. thanks again
🤞 I know it's an old video and old comment but is there a video on your channel on how to seal it up I did go to look but 5 years worth of vids there alot to go through 😭 great work BTW 🛻
Nice video!! Did you seal or protect the original battery (NiMh 1800) or the other ones that you use?
hi, yes I just put some silicone around where the wires come out that's all just because I have had one rot away so always seal them up now 😀👍
What connector does it use for the 2s you said could I get a 5000mah 2s battery with the right connector for it may you tell me what connector it has plz
it's a tamiya connector it is but a lot of my batteries are Dean's so I just bought a converter lead 👍
I’m confused lol
would you like me to do a short video just showing the battery? if that would help let me know 👍
Yep plz and about the connectors as well plz thx so much
no problem, I will do one when I get home and pop a link here 👍
Wait does it come with everything in the box 📦 (battery etc.)
yep sure does :) just need aa's for the transmitter 👍
That’s good thanks
So it comes with battery and charger wow budget
yes it's not bad for the price to be fair
meant to ask the run time on a standard battery? thanks again
standard battery gets around half hour or so 👍
As you said it runs on 2s, which 2s is the best option and best performing and which 2s do you use
the biggest 2s I have is a 3000mah and lasts over an hour, obviously you can get bigger ones that should last longer. plus the esc has lipo cut off as its designed to run lipo so no worries there. just use the biggest you can get theres loads of room in there 👍
So the more mah the more run time, doesn’t effect performance, speed or torque, ok could u plz type in the link to the battery you use and does it come with the right connector for it
You done any upgrades to water proof it
just sealed the reciever bud thats it mainly. the rest is greased all the bearings n stuff and the truck gets stripped after every swim 👍
Is it fully water proof out of the box?
you do need to seal the receiver box first as that's not really waterproof but then it's good to go. I would advise that you grease everything first to make it better though 😀👍
Did you do any waterproofing for it to go that deep in the water?
all you need to do is seal up the reciever box and your good to go . cheers for stopping by 😀👍
That's incredible tbh. A mate of mine has the same truck and it looks incredible.
yes to be fair especially for the money they just cant be beaten. love mine

What did you use a weight in the front
there was a 210g sea fishing weight behind the front bumper at the time 👍
@@009ADVENTURES I take it that helps with keeping the front from lifting and better traction. Thinking of getting one Friday do you recommend
yes a bit of weight up front will help for sure. and yes bud I recommend them all day, for the price they are great. chassis mod is a must but apart from that your good to go. I've beaten this for 2 years and still do and I've changed very little due to damage. I'm sure you eould love it. I will say they are big more 1/8 scale than 1/10 which to me is a good thing. if you have any more questions feel free to ask. I've lots of videos for mods etc here 👍
Chassis mod what does that involve
it's just some alloy angle straps, I have a video on it . just type in kanyon chassis mod. I believe there is someone selling them on ebay for about £10
What’s the run time on the battery provided?
around half hour or so when it was new constant use 👍
@@009ADVENTURES great performance 😁👍🏻
yes its not too bad , I still run mine on the one it came with but its not the best now but it is 2 years old
Is the ESC and motor stock
everything is stock on this one yes 👍
Il est etanche ??
yes but still needs stripping after it's wet 👍
is this PG or X rated at 11.20 your getting him in deeper good vid
it's a bit too dirty for a PG did you see all that mud! lol.. see you cant kill this one in that pond 👍
Yo is it stock
yes all stock just the receiver sealed 👍
@@009ADVENTURES cheers bro I'm gonna get 1
Is this stock or modified
all stock in this one, just sealed the receiver box and that's it 👍
@009ADVENTURES im thinking to get one of these kanyon rock crawler
I use a 1500 battery and my othe one is a 3500
awesome, fantastic trucks these aren't they. I love this thing 👍
