Thank you for being one of the few rc channels that doesn't yell at me through the whole video. I mean I appreciate the enthusiasm from some of these guys but damn the whole video
This so dang awesome! A picture popped up yesterday on one of the RC pages of the motors setup and my first thought was "Huh, wonder if thats Tomelys rig?" Very sweet!
Seriously I want you to know that this is probably the closest I’ll ever get to one of these cool behemoths. Waaay out of my monetary abilities. Thanks for the video Phil. Keep it up and please don’t change 👍👍
A great benefit of that Radiomaster transmitter is if you have the 4 in 1 module, it can connect to most any receiver, so you can use it for any car in your fleet.
You are hands down one of my favorite RC channels on TH-cam. You have always had a friendly disposition and enjoyable content that keeps me laughing throughout the entire video as well as amazed at how detailed you make the entire build experience. Thank you brother 🙏
I remember the reviews you did on the hg trucks, I bought them on the strength of those, I've still got them, the point I'm making , is your reviews are direct and to the point and I for one, value them very much.
They make a belt drive kit for the Xmaxx for using a big boy motor. I don't have it on mine but from what I've seen it's pretty good and durable. Exocaged has it on his all aluminum Vitavon 12S Xmaxx.
That is my favorite RC ever, I want one so badly lol.. hope they still sell them when I can finally afford to get one lol. Thanks for showing the build process, building is almost as fun as driving imo
@@TomleyRCit'd be pretty amazing if there was a way for one of us to win one. If only there were such a way possible... Some sort of contest where one can buy chances in a drawing might work. Know anything similar? I paid over $20 for a few chances on a Raminator from some small shouty chap and I don't really even want a Raminator. Surely there's enough of us to make it financially feasible.
Great video sir... I'm also into building fpv quadcopters which gets very finicky sometimes but everytime I've gotten stuck I always resort to TH-cam and it always pulls through for me. Got to love TH-cam. If there's a issue guarantee TH-cam has a tutorial about it!! Have a great day sir Tomley and the truck looks awesome!!!
That is definitely the smartest hardcore kit I know of! So cool you have it an even cooler for showing us an letting me see it drive an put together 🙏👍
Another way to achieve all wheel steering on the MT12 is to use the rotary dial P2 for the rear servo and use your thumb to rotate it. That way you can choose rear only, AWS,crab and how much steering throw you want rather than have the throws dictated by pre-set end points and how much,if at all, you steer the front wheels.
OMG that thing is an achingly beautiful piece of machinery. Every now and then you find a mechine that's also a piece of precision art and this beast falls into that category! 😉👌
Awesome stuff Phil 👍🏻 What a machine that is!! Well done on the build! Great to see the maiden run! Can't wait to see it finished and parked next to a tiny X-max 😂. Big props aswell buddy for packing so much into the videos and NOT dragging it out forever. Good on you sir!
This build rocks so hard!!!!!! I was literally clapping when it pushed the door open 🤣😎🤘 those servos are no joke I just put one in my dbxle2 and it’s wild how fast and powerful they are
The radio is a super good one from all the reviews I've seen. A bit complex for a beginner like me but it sure is cool how you have the steering set up. Man this build is so incredible. I think the duel motor setup is the coolest. Very nice share Tomley. Love it... 🏁
Man this project looks really awesome!!! I've been waiting for part 2 and can't wait for part 3. If I'd live in the UK, I'd love to see this behemoth in real life. Good luck and enjoy the build! And enjoy your time with the family!!
Loe this build! You say you may never do one of these again, but I think this is a seriously great set of videos, and Cross RC has had my attention for a while! Keep up the great work, I truly enjoy it!
LMAO, I love the little mini jack stands. Over the last year or so I watched a few videos here and there, but this build got me to subscribe. Very cool! I cant wait to see more.
Fantastic build, Phil! Amazing how it rides!!! 😃 BTW, I bought the JJRC Q117 F/Scy 16302... And ordered the oil shocks of... The wrong size. 😂 But, still, I ordered new ones. A bit bigger than the original spring shocks (55mm instead of 50mm) and man... It turned out sweet! Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Wow-thats not something i would go for, but that is one heck of a piece of engineering, and turning into a beast of a build-love the motor positioning, like a v8 with the cooling and timing belts🥰
That truck is just pure awesome. I think it's another of those things I'd like to build, but not so much to buy or own. Looking forward to the next chapter.
I built a mad 6x6 King Yellow school bus with 4-wheel steering, and I wanted a setup like yours - conventional and crab steering. The RC6GS transmitter from RadioMaster will do steering mode mixing, but only after installing a specific firmware. TH-cam University saved the day for me, too 🙂 In the end it was pretty easy, but after a couple 2 minute videos I probably saved an hour of fiddling.
Yeah, I think it’s easier on this if you use the optional switches that connect to the bottom. But as this thing has so many functions, I didnt want to waste 2 (well, 3) channels just for the steering
This would be absolutely perfect to recreate a Tatra Firetruck. I built the water pumps in very custom configurations for them. When I was working for S&S Fire in Fairmount, Indiana. The Tatra itself is a modern marvel in itself. But being able to attack fires with it made it a very integral part of fire fighting. And ofcourse they are gigantic pieces of machinery.
Dude I was looking forward to seeing this and it didn't disappoint. Really look forward to the next bit. I would love to see it versus other crawlers when it is done. You can tell Phill is loving this project. Great stuff mate 👍
After you get everything done and it's all good. You should try and go 8s or something crazy and see how fast you could possibly get that thing. Motor set up is a thing of beauty on that.
Nice build! It would be cool if the chassis would twist or pivot in the middle so the front could rotate independently a bit from the rear to keep the tires on the ground.
Just finished up snow tracks for my 6x6. Waiting for the next snow here in Northern Michigan. No way i could've built it without Buwizz! I recommend using a product sinilar to Glad Press N Seal for waterproofing panels. Loving the new controller update!
Great build mate! LOVE the fpv video!!!! It would be cool to see the view of going forward too! Nothing but upgrades from herel. Thanks for sharing bud!!!
I'm so glad that I found this! I had to upgrade my 80kg servos to the 100kg. The 80s weren't bringing the steering back to center. I also switched out the drive gear from 12t to a 15t. I also had the same problem with the loose steering. I didn't tighten the linkages. After watching this, I'm buying two brushless motors and 130a ESCs! Omg! Your rig absolutely hauls-ass! Mine goes ok but the brushless motors look like a huge upgrade, compared to the brushed 775s, that come with it. I painted mine forest green with some blue highlights and the guns are black and grey. What colour will yours be? James
Hi Phil, what a beast. Love the way the belts spin round and how will it turns. Can't wait to see it done with body on and finished to your high attention to detail.😊
Thank you for being one of the few rc channels that doesn't yell at me through the whole video. I mean I appreciate the enthusiasm from some of these guys but damn the whole video
I don’t do the whole ‘TH-cam’ shouty voice. I’d rather people called me boring than have to shout at a camera all day lol.
Same, that's also why i always prefer Tomley over the others. 😂
I so hate that, shouty channels just feel as though they are made for small children.
This! Sorry for shouting it. I cannot watch video where shouting all the time. I believe we are still in minority but luckily we have Mr. Tomley Tom.
Tumble wumble
Really enjoying this build! Great to see something really unique 👏
Cheers mate. Maybe I need 10 large drift wheels 😅
@@TomleyRC ...now there's an idea (imagines the artillery tractor decked out in Fast & Furious livery) 😅
The series I didn't know I wanted, but can't turn away. Thank you for the amazing content!
Haha… cheers dude
This so dang awesome! A picture popped up yesterday on one of the RC pages of the motors setup and my first thought was "Huh, wonder if thats Tomelys rig?" Very sweet!
Seriously I want you to know that this is probably the closest I’ll ever get to one of these cool behemoths. Waaay out of my monetary abilities.
Thanks for the video Phil. Keep it up and please don’t change 👍👍
The RC is incredible. That Toyota also caught my eye. I've never seen one so clean and straight.
A great benefit of that Radiomaster transmitter is if you have the 4 in 1 module, it can connect to most any receiver, so you can use it for any car in your fleet.

Thank you brother 🙏
Just got home from work and watched this again ....but with a beer ! This is some rc build 👌👌
I remember the reviews you did on the hg trucks, I bought them on the strength of those, I've still got them, the point I'm making , is your reviews are direct and to the point and I for one, value them very much.
Thanks Peter, appreciate it
That belt drive is awesome. Now I picture a drag RC with dual belt motors, and a clear lexan cover over them for visual appeal.
Shaft driven, leave the pulleys poking out of the hood
They make a belt drive kit for the Xmaxx for using a big boy motor. I don't have it on mine but from what I've seen it's pretty good and durable. Exocaged has it on his all aluminum Vitavon 12S Xmaxx.

Nice work, realy liked the reference to GHPC! This truck can go to places you can’t even walk.
They have such a cool channel. And yeah.. I think this is gonna be pretty epic!

Great video sir... I'm also into building fpv quadcopters which gets very finicky sometimes but everytime I've gotten stuck I always resort to TH-cam and it always pulls through for me. Got to love TH-cam. If there's a issue guarantee TH-cam has a tutorial about it!! Have a great day sir Tomley and the truck looks awesome!!!
Glad you are breaking up this build into parts. Awesome to see 10 wheel drive and steering
It's epic! I do enjoy the occasional big build. It's as insane as the pricetag. Can't wait to see it pull your truck.
Can't wait to see this beast finished. That would be killer with a sound effects box on it
That is absolutely brilliant fella. I love the noise it makes from the gearbox and belts
Yeah.. holding the sound box is decent as well
That is awesome man! Can’t wait to see finished product.
So many more parts to come! I can't wait to see what you will do for the painting part.
Videos like these always motivate me to do a kit myself and scare me from doing a kit myself.
I like a challenge, and I think part 3 is gonna be the biggest!
@@TomleyRC im hyped for the next part! Not the biggest fan of the train style body but its for sure gonna look epic with it.
Very unique never seen anything like this before. Love the motors and the belt drive
that thing is a beast! can't wait to see the finished build!!!
Best review of the t-rex build yet, not afraid of getting it dirty or scrathed. Can't wait to see it finished and running
The turning movement is mesmerizing, awesome build sir.
That is definitely the smartest hardcore kit I know of! So cool you have it an even cooler for showing us an letting me see it drive an put together 🙏👍
It’s such a nice build. So glad I was able to get it on the channel
That's crazy how tight of a circle it turns in! Sounds like a semi truck when it drives by!

I love seeing the preview shots on FB then seeing it here!
What an awesome build so far . Can't wait to see the next video. Keep up the good work.

TH-cam is a better teacher than the majority of high school teachers in my opinion
This is by far the coolest build you ever did! and do i know you right, the "house" is away to the painter :) GOOD JOB!!!!
I think it's funny that in this video you say TH-cam, What a great place to learn, but you yourself have taught thousands!!!!
The radio is a super good one from all the reviews I've seen. A bit complex for a beginner like me but it sure is cool how you have the steering set up. Man this build is so incredible. I think the duel motor setup is the coolest. Very nice share Tomley. Love it... 🏁
It's the only one of its kind, edgeTX firmware and ELRS-capable trigger style...
The 'ThunderBirds' theme at 12:19 was spot-on!😁
That looks the nuts! Also in the GoPro footage it sounds awesome too
Man this project looks really awesome!!! I've been waiting for part 2 and can't wait for part 3. If I'd live in the UK, I'd love to see this behemoth in real life.
Good luck and enjoy the build!
And enjoy your time with the family!!
I’m looking forward to part 3… and dreading it as well haha, looks complex!
What a fantastic build, it oozes quality, it runs so smoothly. Superb. Sensational.
Best build RC video series on TH-cam at the moment!
There's not many videos that I like first, then watch, but I knew this was going to be special, What a piece of kit 👌
Saw some comments from people on Facebook group banging on about there’s no realism about this build lol it’s a fking 10 wheeled truck 😂
Yes lol 🤣
Nice motor choice, they look really good. Love the way they mount!
Loe this build! You say you may never do one of these again, but I think this is a seriously great set of videos, and Cross RC has had my attention for a while! Keep up the great work, I truly enjoy it!
Wow, so fun to watch this build come to life! I can't wait for part 3!
That T-Rex is vary cool. Love the motor and belt set up.
Bravo, looks great 👍 very impressive work. Im glad i stumbled across your channel 6 months ago.
Thanks dude
Wow, what a cool machine! Thanks for the build !
That's such a cool and unique build! It's going to look completely insane with the body!
What a project! It’d be amazing to see an HEMTT wrecker/crane body on this thing.
LMAO, I love the little mini jack stands. Over the last year or so I watched a few videos here and there, but this build got me to subscribe. Very cool! I cant wait to see more.
Fantastic build, Phil! Amazing how it rides!!! 😃
BTW, I bought the JJRC Q117 F/Scy 16302... And ordered the oil shocks of... The wrong size. 😂
But, still, I ordered new ones. A bit bigger than the original spring shocks (55mm instead of 50mm) and man... It turned out sweet!
Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Nice! Sounds good
Thank you for the latest build video. Very exciting and interesting 😁
Enjoyed the 1st video and finally get to see the part 2..great job👍🏻👍🏻😀
You stood on it, is a TH-cam short. thats FRiGGIING awesome A++++👍
Haha.. this has lots of ‘short’ opportunities I think
Watching the suspension working looks great.
The motors on that truck sound amazing! The sound that thing makes is insane!!! NICE MY GUY I'm really impressed with it.
Loving this! Can’t wait for the body!!! Great build series choice!
What a fantastic machine. It looks like it should feature on some Sci-fi franchise, patrolling a distant planet, keeping the local populace in-line! 😆
Yes… needs few Starlink dishes on it 😅
I read "Doomsday Cannons" @@TomleyRC
Love your channel you keep it simple and straight forward and very explanatory keep up the great work from Mount Gambier South Australia
Given it moves with you standing on it it shows it capable of doing quite a bit of work.
Have fun on your break. 🙂👍
I can't wait to see the finished product! This thing is looking great already
Embracing the in child, get your rc to pull you round the shop! 😂 Just front wheel steer and then a speed test. Just don't hit yourself with it!! 👍
Wow-thats not something i would go for, but that is one heck of a piece of engineering, and turning into a beast of a build-love the motor positioning, like a v8 with the cooling and timing belts🥰
I can't stop watching this.
That truck is just pure awesome. I think it's another of those things I'd like to build, but not so much to buy or own. Looking forward to the next chapter.
I think this has been the best build video I've ever seen!! That thing is an absolute beast. 😎🤘🏻
This is so cool! Can you imagine the epicness of seeing one of these in true scale?

Waiting for this! Time to make a cuppa and a snack and enjoy 😁
☕️
Thanks!
No, Thank you!
Seriously impressive build and stunning truck, gonna be awesome when finished
Can already say that it won't be a shelf queen!
Yep… no shelf queens here and this is gonna see some mud for sure 👌
Spectacular build! looking forward to the next one.
Love how the suspension works.
Probably has to be the best rc build by any TH-camr 👏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nice to see something different and unique. Not just another xmax build and bash and smash .
Like a kid in a sweet shop, I really don't blame you, brilliant
That thing is amazing! Good job working all that out. Looking forward to the completed body🙂
use to watch rc racing and all sorts of stuff a while back, see this has sort of pulled me back in, can't wait to see the next vid on it.
What a dream build! Seeing this car steer with all wheels is awesome!!😍
Didn’t think this was gonna be my thing… but I’m really enjoying this!… Can’t wait to see it at the skate park 😂😅
Dude I was looking forward to seeing this and it didn't disappoint. Really look forward to the next bit. I would love to see it versus other crawlers when it is done. You can tell Phill is loving this project. Great stuff mate 👍

Well that just looks epic, looking forward to seeing the finished vehicle.

lol I would say that is a nice tempoary stage with the cardboard. No judgments. I LOVE THAT THING!!!!!!!!!!!
Keep up the high end weird builds, these suit your channel well! Great dream build!super cool!
wow what a piece of art...congrazt on your new rc (cross are really killing it in the scaler section)
Yeah it’s so nice!

Its coming along nicely now cant wait to see that body on love the train look
