nice crawl movement on the rock
Love the new build. I can't wait to play "CRAWL" against that truck with my new build!
Tires are good what I noticed is since the truck is on full droop u dont have any spring to stop that bouncing i would try a losi mini t spring in the rear.
Try some brass portal covers. That RS200 is gonna be sick!
looks like a good start on your build
I'm gonna be following your RGT build too
I have the exact same chassis and I'll be racing it this weekend
The 4.75" CI foams are too tall. 4.5" lil nova wides would do much better.
I think this rig does pretty darn good for being a budget rig. There are so many others that spend well more than that. You’ve been comping it with the big boys with this too and doing pretty good! Those tires are supposed to be pretty good , but still perhaps may not be the best for your vehicles. I’m a firm believer that just because one tire works well for one vehicle, it may not do as well for another. So many factors pertaining to the the vehicle their on that may affect their usefulness.
As far as Amazon budget rigs, I would say redcats Danchee ridgerock is a solid place to start and also the remo hobby honcho truck. Think they got it hands down .
Love those plastic bodies especially the Holiday buggy looking one.
Your channels awesome bro, keep up the phenomenal work! Take care my friend!😎
I prefer less articulation. I run a Hilow on 80mm dlux front and rear no limiters or straps. It seems to help with keeping the truck flat. I would prefer to hang a wheel over a drop than be down in the drop. I'm sure those tires need some break in also. I run nothing but Tusks. It seems to be the perfect tire for me and our terrain. Looks like a good test run because now you have a baseline to go off of. She will only get better from here.
WoW 😮❤😮!!!
Awesome RC Crawler!!! Some "fails" but maybe some tuning and that gates are very challenging!
Great and very well done Vídeo Work my Friend!!!
Throw a set of 80mm shocks on it and get real brass an pull that off your wheels and that rig will wake up… DB hobby makes the best inserts on the market
Lessen your articulation
I have accumulated enough spares and a Brazen chassis to build one practically free. I'm going to throw one together and sell it for a couple hundred dollars. Basically beer money and dump the parts I'll never use. Maybe help someone get into the hobby on the cheap.
Cool video and great channel! You obviously wrestled…lol. We are a wrestling family as well. My son is a junior in high school and is looking to make it to the state tourney this year! Really dig your content. Keep up the good work!
I myself have a gspeed gshot with way to much $ invested. My daughter has an Amazon built lgc with ruptures and her truck can do almost everything mine can and it was way way less $. She always brings up how good hers does and how much less it cost me lol.
So, if everything is replaced on the RGT, what are you going to call it now and are you going to rebuild the RGT back to stock as close as you can? The budget Amazon build looks like it might serve you well after some fine tuning of course. 🦥
3 things that I think will help you. 1) Some wheel weights or brass portal covers. Those are great tires but they like a little weight to make them work. Plus to help with the CG. 2) SL3D Squid’n’serts. Everyone I’ve seen try them have been thoroughly impressed. 3) Either switch to deser lizard’s or add some Deez shock bands to these ones. They won’t limit the articulation but will help keep it planted.
Don’t limit the articulation. It’s great and it’s not what is giving you problems.
Bro, get a set of 3brc anti foams, and try this same side hill!!!
4.75" dual stage….
I appreciate the budget build. The more you stay away from Amazon the better. 90% of that stuff is junk. It’s good to support the little guys in RC. Artful Dodgers is a good start. It’s the small companies that make this hobby special and authentic. Spending $20 more on a part will pay off in the long run.
