Steel City RC
United States
Registrace 3. 10. 2013
Welcome to my RC Channel. My name is Gorley. Most call me Gman! I am an RC nut who finds time to work a regular job in the meantime LOL. I have RAW uncut video footage on this channel. I like to share the whole experience from that day. Trials and errors are common. User errors more than likely though LOL. Most of my videos are from suburbs and parks around Pittsburgh, Pa. USA. Anybody local to the area would like to do a meet up. I'd be down for that. We have a small group here that when schedules allow we meet up and have some fun. All scales are welcome. More than likely you will see a lot of 5th scales. Gas and brushless. Hope You enjoy this hobby as much as I do!!
Thanks For Stopping By!!!

Welcome to Steel City RC channel! I have the wonderful opportunity to dig into this Primal RC Grave Digger truck. A local friend of mine, Jeremy, owns the truck and has a few bugs he would like for me to work out for him before he converts it brushless. The truck currently has a Taylor RC 71 Supreme engine installed. Should be an animal.

Redcat Rampage MT -How To Change Transmission Gears
zhlédnutí 1KPřed 7 měsíci
Welcome to Steel City RC channel. This is a transmission gear plate removed from a Redcat Rampage MT V3. To do this gear change. Transmission gear plate removal is NOT necessary for gear swap. I just had it there and out already. The Maverick gears part number is in the video twice. Got them off Ebay.

Welcome to Steel City RC channel. Today I took out the Losi buggy for another shake down braap. The 40GT never disappoints. Amazing how much more power it has in comparison to say a Zenoah g320 engine. Next step is to lower the buggy down with softer springs. Maybe it will be more nimble. Please Like And Subscribe!

Welcome to Steel City RC channel. I got a chance to meet up with some local buddies to run RC boats. I currently don't have on of my own. But really want one. Would actually like a big 2 stroke boat. Time will tell. This spot is literally six minutes from my house. So places to go is not an issue. We definitely had fun. Maybe gimme your opinion on which gas boat is best for me.

Would a taylor 50gt fit in this car ?
@goodboyringo9716 absolutely. It has the same footprint as this 40 does. Would be a bigger animal lol. This thing is nuts. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
@@SteelCityRC ... I have a Rovan SLT with the 45cc but it vibrates the carb loose so I was thinking about a Taylor engine . I really don't know if the SLT is the same as losi 5b for ordering engines for it.
@@goodboyringo9716 I am unfamiliar with Rovan rigs. From what I understand. It is Losi 5iveB compatible. So yes. Order for a Losi 5iveB. The only difference between truck and buggy is the pipe.
Awesome man if your from the burg id love to come rip with ya sometime lmk bud 💪
@charlesbartlebaugh what is up brother! Yeah man. Born and raised right outside the burgh. Hit me up 4one2 five8 three19zero3. I am always down to rip some RC! Hope to hear from ya. Text or call.
@@SteelCityRC I texted ya buddy
@@charlesbartlebaugh I got you. Chat soon bro
She rips like a monster! Awesome!!! I feel you on the adrenaline rush, my 40gt is my pride and joy! 🫡🦾👍💃🏻🚀
Thank you so much brother! The 40GT geared properly is one nasty mofo. I had it geared a bit too low initially. Now it seems perfect. Much more nasty. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
use a step drill bit
Yeah. There are multiple ways to do it. I had an air grinder, not step bit. Do it however works for you and the tools you have. Thanks for watching
Very cool! I just got a rampage and love this thing, but I need to know how you start it with a drill. Is it a custom case you use instead of pull? Thanks!
Thank you! I love this truck, too! The drill starter. Unfortunately, I can not recommend buying from the website anymore. They seemingly went out of business and still taking orders. They are known for remote killswitches too. Killer RC is the name of the website. I think covid knocked his business out. Reading that no orders get fulfilled etc. Used to be a stand up guy. Hope that all makes sense. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
Wonder if this will fix mine. Mine also needs an input shaft seal though so it has two leaks!
When your pushing that. There is no play. Mine had like 1/16 to a 1/4 free spin before it grabs. What could be the issue? I have replaced all the meter diff gears and all new shafts and bearings. I have replaced nothing in the front and rear diff
I am not sure what you mean. These trucks can be so frustrating. This video is when I first got it. I had some serious problems with it. All I can say is make sure you get the proper version parts for it. Wish I was more help. If I could see what you mean, we could figure it out.
That truck is bad ass cool 😎
Yo thank you so much! Really appreciate you watching 👊🤘
Taylor junk
🤣😂 quite possibly. I got it back together running well now. Thanks for stopping by 👊🤘
🙏💯✊️💪👍
Thanks bro 👊🤘
Man don’t know how I missed this video, but great one at that, still have both my MT Redcats , great video 👍
So good to hear you still have them bro! Hell yeah. I have this one and an old Kershaw brushless converted MT. Thanks for watching my friend 👊🤘
The body looks good . The unbreakable body I got off eBay quality is off. But you should throw a max5 on that 1100 kv .
Thanks! The body was difficult to cut. But turned out good. Max5 in here. Maybe if this Max6 dies.. It has been in here several years and still does great. Max5 is kinda big too. But maybe one day. Thanks for watching 👊 🤘
Haha! Cockroach!! It flys nice!! You have that set up good!
Sup Kyle! The cockroach is hard to kill bro. I try and try. But it still gets it done lmao. Good to see ya 👊🤘
Great bash spot for sure 👍
Agreed! I am very lucky to have this spot locally. Sometimes there are pickle ball players there. I still run 5th scale gassers ahahaha. I been running there long before the courts were put up..
Nice cockroach is a beast lol 😂 🤙
🤣😂 right!! How not to love the Xmaxx. A few upgrades and it is a cockroach lmao! Thanks for watching 👊 🤘
Hey G-man, nice setup and damn nice launches! Traxxas gets a lot of criticism but i think they make great products. Great video buddy
Thanks Brian. This truck is the perfect truck for me. I can beat it and put it away wet. It actually like it ahahahaha. Appreciate your eyeballs brother!!
Great stuff Gorley love ur xmaxx running videos 👊🏻
Sweet! This truck is awesome man. Very nimble for a big guy. Appreciate you stopping by Kris!!
Nice man💯👍
Thanks bro!! Such a fun basher
Mannnnn brother! The cockroach is one bad mofo! I really love your setup! that jump at 4:55 was amazing! this was definitely one of your best videos brother! great job G! Thank you for the mentions! Talk soon man.
Wow thanks, Todd! The ole cockroach is like the friggin terminator. It never dies lol. Really appreciate the kind words brother. When I drive that rig it makes me think of you and that name we came up with 😂👊🤘
I just recently built an xmax... I'm in love with it! My body doesn't pop like yours though. It hardly comes off
Yeah I don't know why it pops off so easy. Gotta be the unbreakable material. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
🙏💯✊️💪👍
Caleb! You gotta get a basher and meet up with me. Sooo fun! Thanks for watching brother 👊🤘
@@SteelCityRC I might have to get a basher
@@tigwelding123 please do. I have an Arrma Fireteam I'd sell. RTR
@@SteelCityRC nice
Awesome buddy. I use a velcro strap wrapped around chassis and body to hold it on. Works great. 👍🇨🇦🤠
Sweet. I gotta do something. I always forget to come up with something till it popps off the first time lol. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
I'm gunna have to get that pipe , I'm just running that silly rampage crud , sounds great !
Now that made me laugh.. Rampage crud.. Yeah man, the Olimat pipe is sweet. Either cut the body for it. Or put aluminum heat tape on the body inside like I showed. You will love it. Appreciate you watching!! 👊🤟
Hey G Man, nice ride! That Redcat takes the jumps quite well.
Sup Brian! I love this rig brother! Jumps like a champ and still has a mid 40's top speed. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
Awesome video G !! Great rip ! That red cat always looks killer 👊🏼👍🏼🔥
Thanks John! One of my favorites right here. 👊🤘
Olimat pipe sounds good and the rampage handles those hill jumps with ease 👉👌👍🏼👊✅️
Thanks man. Best move I made is that Olimat pipe. Love it. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
Boy that thing moves! Badass bash Seshh brother 💪🏼
Thanks!! Not too bad for an eight year old engine. I swear it hasn't lost any power. Appreciate you stopping by brother!!
Very awesome G! I’m always impressed with how well that thing jumps! Definitely a fun machine! I’m glad you’ve got the Honda to haul dirty rigs around in! Talk soon brother
Thanks! I always forget the fun had running this truck. Turned out to be a great day. The Honda has been awesome so far. Hope to see ya soon. Maybe some boating??
Still love that truck g! I'm getting ready to put that same engine with a modded carb in my 5t! Almost done with my belt drive for my cat, these trucks are awesome still!
Heck yeah! Thanks! This engine is so worth the money. Especially if you get a longblock and run it awhile, then switch the piston and head over. Eight or nine years ago, I did that. Still so reliable and powerful. Doug at ESP knows his stuff as much as any of the rest. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
Sweet you got that baby running Awesome 🤙
Thanks!! One of my favorite runners! Appreciate you stopping by 👊🤟
🙏💯✊️💪👍
Thanks Caleb!! 👊🤟
I know this video was posted some time ago but I am in the market for an exhaust pipe for my FG 4wd sportsline. Just wondering if you still use the jetpro? Any regrets? Would you buy it if you had to do over again with what you know now? Thanks in advance!
Hello. I was in the same situation as you. I decided on the Jetpro because of availability and he has a reputation for good pipes. No regrets at all. Good power and sound. Overall I like the pipe. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
I was into tmaxx back in early 2000s. Raced them amd never had a emaxx. Now many years later these xmaxx came out. I have yhe cmaxx amd xrt both are ultimates. Getting ready to put big electronics in it as well. So much more fun.
Awesome! Big power is so fun. I still use this older set up and still love it. Hobbywing is definitely a good company. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
🙏💯✊️💪👍
Thanks Caleb 👊🤘
I use the Gears from the MCD V4, best Quallity.
Yes. There ya go! Got a part number to share with us? Thanks
@@SteelCityRC Here is a link as an example, it is best to buy several gear pairings. Since the transmission plates of MCD and Redcat are different, you have to try out what fits together. However, the quality of the gears is unsurpassed.
How did u get the tires to fit? I purchased them tires for mine n i can't get them on
What is up! I use DGI 1 inch wheel hex extenders for the MT. Then the wheels. The center hole needs drilled out to 3/4". I used a 3/4 inch step drill bit from Harbor Freight. Then they fit right on. Gotta change the hexes first on the truck. Stock MT is 23mm wheel hexes. Standard 5th scale is 24mm like the Proline Badlands are.
@@SteelCityRC I appreciate it just happened to have a video next after this one where he used a dremmel, I was thinking a press but whatever works. I do have the adapter pieces for hex from Redcat. I opened package n not trying to lose the $215 I paid for them. Ty much!
@@legit_187ttv6 the first set of these I used a die grinder on air. Then realized the step drill bit was faster. Either will work. I suggest getting the DGI 1 inch extenders. It will bring the wide stance back from taking the stock wheels off. It rolls over too easy without.
@@SteelCityRC I was looking at them just making sure I get right one's so I don't waste anymore money 🤣. I'm still waiting on my Olimat exhaust I bought on 18th. I know Australia far away but geez
Are they the one's that come up for Losi baha etc
Where can I get the bearings for the diff plate ? I bought the same one but my old bearing don’t fit the new one they are too small
So you bought a new gear plate and the original bearings don't fit?
Yea they don’t fit , the original gear plate is hard plastic and the new one I got is the one you showing in the video , the wholes for the bearings are too big
@antoniomojica148 I bet the clutch bell shaft you have is shorter too. You can get a complete set of bearings for the Rampage MT from Fast Eddy website.
How is this video supposed to be helpful if dont show what your doing pretty fucking stupid
Hey G man can I get some of your friends on loan? Mine only bring me beer when I do things for them 😂
Ahahahaha! My boy Metz! Sup brother. I surely wasn't expecting this boat. But man what a nice gesture. I probably got 10 hours or more into his Grave Digger. Either way. This has never happened to me before. I usually get shit on... Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
I've had that boat for three years , it's a great fun boat , I went and got the engine put to full mod by some company in Florida that do them , it is so fast and so fun , , I'm sure you will get into a new prop and adjustments on the back , plug the drain holes for sure , then there's the deal where the cabin runs out of air for the engine , I'm thinking about doing a vent on top , it's a hard one to flip so the hole is no big deal , but a hole in a boat !!?? I don't know , but I can't wait to see you run it , I'll bet you modify that engine , it makes a huge difference , you got yourself a great friend there , CONGRATS !! ENJOY ARE GIFT CALLED SUNDAY
What is up! Wow great info man! I was wondering about the engine running out of air inside the cabin. We gotta come up with something for that. So you plug all the drain holes? I saw a guy with a bilge pump in his hull on YT. Not sure why and or how he did it. He didn't explain it. Nit much info on these. Guess I need to make a video series for them? Any more info is greatly appreciated 👊🤘
@@SteelCityRC I can't emphasize how important it is to keep that cooler bolt on your shaft tight , and check it a lot , you can loose your shaft and your prop , lube , lube , lube , boats are a blast , I've been a 4-5 times a week water skier , always looking for glass water , Now I'm looking for glass water for my rc boats , since the cancer crap took all my gumption away,,,, I guess , it's a blast running them around my ski boat , the there's always retrievel boats , there fun to do also , unless your the guy who jumps in the river and gets it yourself 😂😂😂
@chrisryder4709 excellent info Sir! I am a sponge right now for boat knowledge. Thank you so much!
Super nice G-man you definitely can use the mod kill switch with that motor , I use the same on my gas boats, looking forward to your thoughts on the RC boats 👍
Thanks! Really appreciate all the info brother. Gotta learn this thing. 👊🤘
Congrats G! Love that pile of mayhem in yer garage😁
Thanks! I hate to say that RC takes up 3/4 of the basement lmao. Lucky no kids and three BR to put stuff in. Let's get together soon 👊🤘
My 6x6 and 3s arrma is down but almost have the drag slash together haha.
Awesome 🤙
Heck yeah! Thank you so much for watching 👊🤘
Absolutely amazing and I’m pretty sure very well deserved. Congratulations. Definitely post more videos of this because I want to see it.
Right on Gary! Thanks RC brother! Man I was floored when he showed it to me. I drooled looking at that same boat at the LHS a couple years ago. And dummy me walked out without it. We'll here it is bro. I am so excited! Appreciate the kind words my friend 👊🤘
I've been trying to find that zelos gas boat forever now where did you get it?
What is up! I did some work for a friend on his Primal Grave Digger with a Taylor 71S in it. Got it up and going again. When he picked it up. He gave me this boat! I have seen them in Losi/Horizon approved local hobby shops. Pretty sure it's where he got this and a brushless version.
🎉 CONGRATULATIONS 🎊 🎉 That’s totally badd ass !!!
Thank You John! I am in love with this boat. So many ideas racing through my head. Appreciate you stopping by brother 👊 🤘
@@SteelCityRC For sure ! I miss my boats sometimes!! Gonna be sick !!!! In the winter it will be time to send the engine over to OBR ..
