Excellent video and I truly enjoyed your scale CC-01 pajero and all the goodies you invested in this awesome machine. You know, its been about four years since I left the hobby in which I was apart of for over twelve years. (Now I collect video games). I myself owned about 4 CC-01 models. One with the unimog body, jeep wrangler, land rover and of course, the pajero which was always my personal favorite. I never got to purchase the wheels and tires you have on yours on any of my models but I always knew it would improve the suspension after looking at yours. Thank you for posting this awesome video on one of the greatest R/C vehicles in history and for including the part numbers of each upgrade. You inspired me to make a comeback and the CC-01 pajero will be the first on my list. You earned one more subscriber. 👍👍👍
Oh man, your words just blew me away! It is early in the morning here and your lines are the first I read today. I am really happy that you found a way back to this great great hobby and that I and my video took part in it. Made my day right from the start! :)
Thank you for sharing this and welcome to my channel!
Great video, good mods and very well explained. I like it and I subscribe
I appreciate that, thank you! :)
I have to admit you improved the hell out of the rear end on this truck now you know you have to do the front to make it complete nice job brother 🤙🏼🍻😉
Thank you! Hmm, the front will be much harder to do than the rear. As far as I know there is no solution from Tamiya for the front. What I want to do is to improve the aproach angle in the front so I do not get the hang on every rock with the front of the chassis.
The slowmotion hill climb was epic. well done!! Thinking about buying a cc-01 pajero rig and making it into a rusty old car look a like. Want to do it but smarter to not do it probably. Have a cr-01 too. Great crawler but the looks are too extreme for a scaler. I have a landrover d90 hard body on a metal chassis from rc4wd. That is a true scaler to be. Project is running for years allready but work on it very occasionally. Even have a scale driver in there that will turn the steering wheel when the wheels are turning left or right. beside that I have a 1 to 8 hsp crawler and a 1:35 orlandoo hunter and many more rc stuff, boats, planes, pisten bully's, a micro tank and a forklift. All with all just a lot of stuff. Just love the rc hobby. Done with fast racing cars. 4X4 and crawling and scalers and micro etc. is more fun now. Many projects are half done. And there is the problem. Best to finish all of them first haha. Oh and just little time because we have a lovely 4 year old.
Thanks for watching and for the feedback! Hey, looks you are really deep into the hobby right now :D I like it! It is funny, I allready converted the Pajero body to an very old rusty look! Did not made a video so far. I wish you many more pleasent hours with your wonderful hobby and familiy! Cheers!
Very practical
Thank you!
Very cool bro.
That’s truck is wicked 💪🏾😘goes as good as it looks
Thanks buddy and welcome to my channel!
Thx for the tips. Last summer I bought a Tamiya CC01 based Defender. Out of the box it actually drives quite ok in the dirt. In particular when you consider the $200 kit price which is way lower than, e.g., Traxxas. But I have to say, this is my first ever crawler. My ambition level is probably still low comparing to the seasoned hard-core drivers. Recently I installed a 3:1 reduction gearbox which made driving much smoother. I wasn't aware of the suspension stroke extenders that you can buy for the CC01. So this weekend I made a set myself from 2 mm stainless steel that I had laying around. Pretty easy and straight forward and indeed yet another driving improvement. But everything else is still original. I deliberately kept the original tires even though they are made of not-so-soft plastic, hence not so suitable for crawling. But they just look very original and I have been beautifying my Defender by looking at real-size examples. So I try to find the balance between the ultimate crawler and a largely original replica. All together I spend an additional $120 for a battery, gearbox and other accessoires (original spare wheel, winch, sand ladders, shovel, jerry can, etc.) to make the car look nice. Most of it ordered via Internet in China. A metal roof rack I made myself. Receiver, servo, transmitter I already had from helicopter flying. As said, with some minor changes this CC01 kit is very good value for money. Drives well and looks good.
Nice to read so much information from you Eric! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experience with the CC-01. After all improvements and upgrades the CC-01 is a nice and capable Trail Rig, but cannot compete with the latest true crawlers/scalers like an SCX 10 II and TRX 4. But I have to admit that tamiya makes the nicest looking bodies. Interesting that you are satisfied with the stock tires tough. Do you drive alot over rocky terrain? Cheers!
@@RoosterRC I only keep the original tires because they look exactly like the tires on a real Defender. For crawling on rocks not perfect but I can live with that. Having an original-looking car is part of the fun. I also installed a real-working winch in case the car gets stuck :-) . BTW, I put 2 x 500 grams diver lead-weights in the front and back of the chassis. The extra weight makes the rather stiff suspension smoother and slightly improves traction. With the 3:1 reduction gearbox that I installed the motor has enough torque to easily move around the extra weight. The car just doesn't drive as fast anymore as originally but for a crawler this is OK.
@@ericvandenberg5502 Your adjustments with the weight are great. I guess the motion of the suspension also looks more realistic with more weight. Nice!
Nice vid, I’ve always thought these where really cool. Still want one.
Thank you! Get one. They are pretty cheap and look great!
Top top top tanks.
nice pajero upgrades... I like the wrangler tyres 👍
Me too! Thank you!
Cool video. Thinking about getting one of these and this is very informative. Liked and sub'd.
Thank you!!
Nice job good video thinking of getting the toyota hilux extra cab body
Thank you! Toyotas are great also!
Old platform but I still bought it , for a project amphibious russian transporter, something I like in this chassis more than the expensive ones
Great idea! What transporter exactly?
@@RoosterRC I'm leaning towards a Brdm 2
Very good job bro
Thank you! :)
U sounds like a rap sync with music. Nice one
🤣🤣🤣 Thank you, I guess ... :)
Nice video style and commentary. I will say that you must consider scale when evaluating performance, the obstacles here would ruin a real Pajero rendering it scrap. I'll also say that finding proper scale terrain isn't easy :)
Thank you for your comment! You are definetly right. I am used to take on this or more difficult terrain with my Axial SCX10 or the Ascender or even the Twin Hammers. Keeping the terrain more in "scale" is a good point. Nevertheless I try to make the car handle it all better. I am curious how far I can go :) And welcome to my channel ;)
Looked pretty scale for everything except that one crevas where it was tweaked quite a bit. Most mildly modified real 4x4 wouldn't flex that much. Still the rest of the video looks good. Glad I got similar tires and wheels coming for my cc01 already.
Right, I had the same impression with the flex.
Excellent mods for the venerable CC01 chassis. Sadly audio kept cutting out on the film, so I missed the voice over.
Yeah I know ... 😫 Sadly I don't have the movie file to reupload it. But I think all the important info is there. I'm just babbling around in the end 😅
@@RoosterRC Thanks, LOL! Good work on the chassis.
@@musoseven8218 Thank you!
In that one scene it Lions like the axle Fell out
Great video!! can you give us the links of all the upgrades? thank you
Hi! You find the part numbers of all upgrades in the video. Please check by yourself where you can get them.
hi R R...
'
i use traxxas spring shocks amd wheels on frog ORV tamiya...
look much better...
i did homemake half ORV tamiya / half stmapede together...
wow look great and smooth run...
but cannot find good plastic painted body yet
The tyres make a huge difference but personally, I don't like the stroke extension links as I feel they spoil the scale look, too much articulation. I have the Bronco CC-01 with the Yeah Racing suspension mods, TRF shocks, soft barrel springs, better soft scale tyres, 55T motor and a crawler ESP and it looks and runs great. When I do attack some pretty tricky terrain, I enjoy the challenge of trying to drive around the limitations of the chassis. The scale look, motion and articulation are what makes these cars appealing in my view, it doesn't need to be a crawler.
Good morning! Your mods make absolut sense to me. The CC-01 can't compete with modern dedicated crawler chassis like TRX-4 or the Axials. Keep it simple and scale and enjoy the look. You got it! 👍😃
Hello, how did you get those wheels and tires to fit? I have the same but it rubs the body too much. Thank you
Somehow it worked in my case. Perhaps I did trim the fenders a little bit.
Awesome vid mate 👌 the rc4wd tires look a bit bigger then stock. What about tire rubbing on this setup?
There is a little bit of rubbing. But not bad.
いいね👍️

Great vid 👍 Any new upgrades to your CC-01?
Thank you! :) No, actually I did sell this one. But started a new CC-01 project as you can see in my recent videos. A Rally project.
@@RoosterRC If Rally than xv-01 😉
@@JPGrc You are absolutely right. Love my XV-01 - best rally chassis!
How did you elevate the body so the crawler tires will not touch the body?
They actually do touch, I did nothing to the body mounts.
@@RoosterRC thank you
What store did u buy the upgrade parts?
Hi! Local Hardware stores and the tamiya specific upgrades mostly on aliexpress.
Great vid but music was to load as what you where saying was more important to here
Thanks for the feedback - I do appreciate that!
what engine do you have there? (T)
A 55 turn rebuildable

Thank you! )
It doesn't look quite right going through the dips, but it goes through so I'm not sure,😀
It depends what you want from your rig. Do you want a performer or a scaler? I am totally with you :D
@@RoosterRC yes im with you it just looks wrong,
