- Great looks and smooth performance! My opinion on some must do mods for the FMS FJ40. While a very cool rig right out of the box, the FJ does have it's shortcomings. Here's what I did to make this truck better looking and much more enjoyable to drive. For less than $100, a new set of wheels, a new ESC, and a metal servo arm help make this rig look better, be more durable, and better to drive. Of course a few custom parts and some painted details certainly help as well, plus I had a lot of fun designing and printing some accessories. Further mods may be in this trucks future, but for now this Land Cruiser is ready to hit the trails in style! 😎

Thanks for watching everyone! As nice as these FMS rigs are out of the box, I enjoy taking the time to modify and improve them. Perhaps I'll attempt a more radical custom build in the future, but for now I've got some simple updates on the FCX10 K5 that should be a lot of fun! Stay tuned!

Gorgeous little truck! 👍
Thanks for the video. Very nice. Those wheels make a world of difference. Hope FMS takes notes.
Thank you! In their defense, I assume those wheels are just cheap off the shelf parts that help keep the overall cost down. In a way I'd rather them go cheap on the wheels/ties, which most people will swap out regardless on just about any RTR, then go cheap with the drivetrain, body, chassis, etc. Still though some better box stock wheels would make a huge difference to the appearance overall. They detract not add to the scale look of the rig IMO.
That footage at the end looks great!! that terrain and foliage looks perfectly scaled to the truck.
What a great looking rig! Your mods have elevated it to ultra-scale. Well done. I also have those wheels and plan to design and print hub caps for a Chevy K10 2wd build.
👍😊
Thank you! Best of luck with your project. 👍
Some of those trees looks scale, great trail spot. Defiantly do the fusion pro, its the best thing to happen to the Redcat Ascent.
Yes I love filming at Oakes. Great place for both trail trucks and crawlers.
Rig looks great ! I have Bob Ross driving mine, added Fusion Pro, inner fenders, 8274 RC4WD winch , tow hooks, and a stripe kit from Wild creek graphics to break up all the yellow. Really fun truck to work on and drive , thanks for the great video 👍
Awesome and thank you! Thinking a winch, jack, and tow ropes could be cool additions to this rig. Would like to try out a Fusion Pro for a project someday. Hear a lot of good things about that set up.
thats awesome i need to gett one of these now lol
I don't think you'll be disappointed! They just need a little work to make them great. One of my favorite rigs from FMS. 👍
Really great video, love the subtle improvements that all add up to a superb scale truck 👍😀
I buy and modify much cheaper trail trucks, and I like that everything done here can apply to those too.
I would add a scale articulated figure, and cut out the door side windows 🤙. It would boost it in looks 👌
Yes, I think a figure would look great for some of these trucks. I know nothing about them or were a good spot to get them would be but I'm sure I can make it happen at some point. 👍
@@MakeItRCI had one a couple years ago, and I had loaded it with: 2 scale figures, scale accessories, made a mt. bike rack with one in rear, many other stuff 🤔. Sold it for $275 had no place to crawl with it 👎
Very beautiful toyota .great job 👍👍👍
Thank you 👍
I have the leaf spring kit for the Mashigan but I may have to use it on one of these instead.
Nice. I was tempted to install one but I like the stock bouncy suspension. It's cool that FMS offers a leaf spring suspension option.
did all those upgrades....but didn't add a driver figure
lol There's a ghost driving. At some point I'll probably get some figures for these more scale rigs.
will you sell the hub cap file
Awesome!! But does it come with the battery? If not, what battery type size does it need?😮
Thanks! A battery is not included. The stock ESC accepts both 2S and 3S LiPo batteries. A variety of sizes will work, however there isn't any battery strap included so you may need to install your own battery strap, Velcro, etc. to keep the battery in place. I've found standard size hard pack LiPos like are commonly used with other 10th scale crawlers to be too large, but others have said they'll fit. Seems like you'd really have to jam them in there. I've exclusively used "shorty" packs or smaller size batteries with this truck which are no problem to fit.
@@MakeItRC ok thanks
Nice tips. Your video looks so scale. 👍🏾
Thanks for watching!
How about a 1:1 real cruiser 😝
