Does Neil have his own channel? He always goes all out on his rigs. Love it !!!!
??
I’d love to see an updated video with Niel and any changes he’s made.
My eyes fell out, what an amazing playground. You are so blessed with these beautiful locations. Nice video, I really liked the music and footage in the end.
Thank you very much!
Could have went a little more in depth about the treal transmission
Just got a Capra RTR 4ws, would love to see an updated Capra video. Love your channel!
Oh my gosh! That thing is class 3 ready. You just need to find a way to get a servo winch on it.👍
DSM micro99 winch mount
By far the coolest Capra I've seen
same here.
This is like the dream capra, Its amazing!
Yeah, it is sooo much better than stock. What's cool too is it has a ton of lights and scale accessories, not an ultralight version.
I went with the soft/soft .72 lbs capra springs and im really happy. Ripped the shocks apart and rebuilt with green slime because they leaked and 45wt oil. I dont think I'd change anything, very pleased.
Does green slime have seal swelling additives
U can use ATF at any automotive shop
I might try before I get pit bull shocks
Oh my God!! It looks like a giant 🦀 crawling like crazy, very good custom modulation, and articulation of this incredible buggy! 😳
soooo slowwwww
Best battery I've found for the Capra is Spektrum Smart 1300 mah 3S 11.1v 30C ... lasts around 40 min. This batt comes stock in the Proboat 17 deep V.the best part is it fits easily into the Capra
Man I wish we were in the same area. I have a ton of faith in my modded Capra. I want to stack it up against some mod queens like the one in this vid! Sweet Capra btw.
Yes, we are pretty luck with these rocks and beaches.
That's how a capra should be set up !!!! Started out in RC with SUPER class rigs. They are still my favorite rigs to drive. With 8 or so inch tires 4 wheel steer dig and the ability to adjust each esc. Great rig !!
Really like those window nets! How did he make them?
I know they sell them on Ebay but not sure if those are them or custom
That Capra is awesome.nice choices on the upgrades
It was waiting to be unleashed. Stock performance was like modded scale trucks. Now, it's a beast.
Nice video and a really nice Capra. Really liked the mods and Francis reaction in the video excited to see the rig. Really enjoyed it too. Nice work showing us what talented people can do on their rigs. Keep up the good work! 👍
It's a reaction video. Neil came over to loan me a servo. I said, "let me see your vehicle."
@@RCReviewChannel Even better! It was nice and you can see the excitement in the video 😊
I do 'cheap' 4WS on all my rigs. HV bluebird servos wired straight to 2S battery with servo Y-splitter and a servo inverter on the rear servo. Constant unswitchable, un-crabable 4WS. Even without the option to crab or rear steer it is a lot better for steep crawling than just FWS.
Going to start my Capra as my build for 2021, getting the kit for the New Year. I want to build a 4WS, with front OD. i was sold when I watched a review that showed all the ways to play with experiment with anti-climb and anti-squat with the link positioning. I actually want to play with a longer link, stretched wheelbase and take advantage of the higher gearing to get a Hammer Truck type of crawler. All Reefs servos, and The XR10pro G2 ESC and G3R 17.5 brushless motor combo from Hobbywing.
already have a FS-GT5 radio and receiver arriving tomorrow for another build I was working on I can dedicate to the Capra. Putting that other on hold for awhile.
The Scale details are the crowning touch. Beautiful !
Thank you very much!
Just started my Capra build, HWG2&G3R25.5TV10combo,F&Rst Reefs 444's & 99dig.
Thx for the Inspiration.
Shows how amazing the hyrax tread pattern is that it can grip like that even in g8 compound
Im obsessed with his build. Wish he would do a more indept video
Yeah, this vehicle was sold a long time ago for 4 figures, sadly.
@@RCReviewChannel dam thats sad ! Shoulda kept it !
Mind blowing video…awesome…Can someone share how the parts of 8pinion mod , etc what parts I need to get to achieve such crawling control ?
Very cool rig 🤙rear steering is awesome you the Man Neil !!!!SVS!!!!
Was that bean hollow Lol thats a awesome place to crawl
What wheels are those? Just bought an rtr Capra done a few runs on it definitely time to start upgrading though.. definitely going to get the brass portal covers as well
11t pinion crawls just fine. Get use to better throttle control and it’s actually better since you can get up slippery climbs easier.
11t is not bad. But it all depends on the quality of the motor, esc and transmitter. Hard to argue with how deliberate this one crawls and how easy it is to control.
RC Review for sure. Mamba X with the aux hooked to channel 5 lets me dial the top speed from 3mph to 15mph on 4s. The throttle is fully proportional to this, so turned all the way down full throttle goes 3mph and half throttle 1.5, or turned all the way up it’ll be 15mph full and 7.5 half.
.
Puller pro motors are so smooth and hitting 43k rpm isn’t hard on it. It’s still geared decently low, it’s just higher voltage on a high (for crawling) kv motor. But that doesn’t mean the motor can’t provide torque at really low rpm.
Wow!! Great job. That thing is amazing.
The way it crawls is so deliberate. No gunning the throttle and no getting lucky.
I picture francis and Niel dancing in ecstasy to the song that’s playing while they watch it crawl 😂
One of my favourite videos.
Great show guys
Good day brother, out of curiosity. What size of motor are you running on this? Btw i hit sub botton. Awesome content!
@rcreview would love to hear you guys talk about the flysky gt5 a bit more in depth in terms of the different settings and what they all mean and the different channel options... that’s a seriously impressive rig though. Very cool!
Possibility. I like that the low-cost Flysky is absolutely dialed for this high-end rig. Seriously can't see a $500 radio outperforming it.
Can you do a video on how to setup the GT5 with the thumb mod and setting up the 4ws
That thing is a beast!
beast mode.
Niel has some badass and TRICK OUT Kars; I especially like his version of the VS4-10 Phoenix Portal; here is a challenge for you, Mr.Niel. How about doing a 4-wheel steer VS4-10 Phoenix Portal? Also would like a detailed video of what you did to said VS4-10 Phoenix.
P.S. Your Capra is sick! We need to see a better shot of your MODS! Sir, please list the links to what parts you used in it so I can purchase and help your channel; speaking of the CZcams channel, Niel, do you have your own?
Thanks in advance, guys, /Joe
the capra does have a few small shortcomings but still money well spent ....nice footage brother
Holy sheeet!!! Lol! Great video man. That is a nice rig!
I love it
Never had rear wheel steer but I found my self saying when to use it and witch way. I need rws on my Capra. Thanks for the upgrade info, and a good tutorial on using rws.
Your one hell of a driver my good man!
Right on
Why don't they make a remote with an extra smaller wheel for 4ws
What light set are those in the front grill? Love this build.
Damned watch it to crawl in a competition,what a beast!No Voodoo tires?
I took off the plastic spring seat with stock springs it's better try it
Do you have link for the shocks? Looking for new ones for my Capra 🤩
I have a 4 wheel steer capra and I love it
Works and looks good on this vehicle huh?
That it does! crab walked some really good steeps ! Love the channel you got me into the hobby! Thanks a million
Best performing Capra I’ve seen
Pretty darn shocking, especially seeing how poorly a stock one performs.
RC Review exactly! I really wanted a Capra kit to build but with all the reviews I’d probably have $1000 in it to get it to perform to the level I wanted
Great mods SIR
Is there a full mod list or a build thread somewhere? Just picked up a Capra, and I’m already eyeballing upgrades. Lol
We'll update the description in a bit.
One mean machine!
Mini W.E. Rock rig .. awesome 👍
Some nice lines👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
How did he get an 8 tooth pinion?
I notice the hobbywing motor is discontinued any other recommendations that are still available?
Holmes Hobbies Puller Pro. Stubby is the best.
@@RCReviewChannel thank you so much! I'm completely new to rc. I think the Capra is perfect for me. I really appreciate your content! Super informative!
@@RCReviewChannel must be good because out of stock everywhere except 1200kv😂
How old is Neil? I’m 23 and it’s hard to find other dudes my age who are into the hobby.
I’m 23 too
@@neilmandude check out the vid on my capra?
Sick that’s what I had in mind.
So sick! It's the realization of a vision!
Newer to the channel here....Where are you located that you film at these amazing looking locations?
Bean hollow state beach and Linda Vista. Both are in California
Neil Laxamana thanks! It’s beautiful.
@@neilmandude do you have an rc channel?
The capra looks like the wheelbase has been stretched? If it's been made longer what was used ? Thanks
Hi guys! Luv your channel....just put rear steer on my Capra and wondering if you could help.... trying to set it up on a 7pxr knob for independent steering like Neil did! ...any help would be greatly appreciated.......keep up the good work!
How do you control the rear steering? Does it self center rather than the 5 position? That's what I would prefer. Curious if I can do it with my dx5c
Lol, I’m running such a similar setup. Except no overdrive. I’m mixing steering. And I’m running 2700kv puller pro on 4s for 15mph. I don’t have those expensive axles though.
Mixing steering how? Is it helpful for that fast and capable machine:?
RC Review oh, I meant letting the fly sky gt5 do the channel mixing. I put it on 4ws and rotate the selector to choose which mode and let the radio proportion it.
.
Though, if I turn it off I can use the push button to select from extreme right or extreme left.
Where is the driving done? Somewhere between Santa Cruz and Pacifica I'm guessing
Did he strech it or leave stock wheel base ?
Badass!!
where did you tap in wire for the volt meter? Thanks
Wow... Keren banget Bro... Mantaaappp 👍👍👍
Check out my Capra video "UP AND OVER TEST ROCK" I did these mods a long time ago plus a few secret others. Just wondering how he got that 8 tooth pinion in there!! And yes springs off the Losi mini-t rc vehicle. 1/24 scale springs comp guy secret for years
The treal transmission case has a second hole for the middle gear shaft so you can put it closer to the motor and run a 8t pinion
Which beach is that?
What did you use for the transmission mount skid plate it looks flat some kind of flat chassis mount?
I was just looking if flysky radio does 4ws well
Great vid
Thank you. Surprising for sure.
im trying to follow the build and you mention a hobbywing quicrum motor you want to install, can i get a link of the motor?
I have a ecx temper gen 2 crawler, and I have all the parts to convert the rear for rear wheel steering,, But what do I need as far as an esc and controller because I definitely want to be able to just push a button and switch between steering modes....can you give me some advice?
AWESOME
Thank you! Cheers!
Hey I’m doing a 4 wheel steer on My Capra and my front and back wheels are going in the opposite direction. How can I fix that?
Damn this video is going to make me spend some more money
We aim to save you money so you can spend more money
RC Review you need to start showing that trail finder to build that is going to make me spend some money
Love the rigs, i just picked up a capra 4ws @AXIALFEST22 and i already have vanquish kmc tank with vanquish brass inner clamp rings as well, i am expecting my vanquish front portal axle to be here today,on the rear axle did you guys use another feont capra axle? I see that its offset. So is he using a different vanquish portal axle for the rear ?or is it just another f9 portal axle?
Where was the receiver placed?
What foams is he using?
HOW CAN I BUILD THIS? Awesome!
That crawler looks sweat
What’s his wheelbase???
Size battery run time
I just got a axial Capra 4ws I love it servo for the front died the first battery swapped the rear to the front still driving what servo should I got to replace both
Just put reefs 900 smart servos in my 4ws capra but it was $189 a piece! Well worth it though,it will break axles without hesitation there so powerful
Bonjour j'aimerais connaître le nom des amortisseurs svp merci
I will like to see i can send u my capra an u can build it for me like this one??plesase
Dam this things loaded up! Lol €£¥$$$
I want it mostly it to be a trail truck with a top speed of 10 miles per hour and tough enough for rock crawling all metal with Dig and 4 wheel steering just like the video. Send me your price
The axles alone are 250 bucks a pop, plus over and under gears, plus pinion, plus servo programing and other parts as needed. it can get to a grand quick.
Those axles cost a fortune!
it's only money. A lot of it. :)
Top speed
CAN YOUGO INTO MORE DETAIL HOW HE GOT AN 8T PINION TO WOK
Treal transmission case
@@neilmandude STILL WITH HE 48P SPUR? I CAN'T EVEN FIND AN 8T
@@johnririe8506 what motor are you running with the 8 t I think I missed it.
@@davebakker6522 I'm just running a Holmes Hobbies Crawlmaster sport 13t
@@johnririe8506 540? I’m running a 550 12t with an 11 t pinion I have an 8 t pinion wondering if I should put it in.
Can u send me a list of all mods I would like a cappra like that or could u do that for me. I Could send u money
treal doesnt make a transmission for the capra just a trans housing, and im suspecting that was probably the case when recorded. lack of links is extremely aggravating when the shit you talk about doesnt even exist
Does anyone the size of those tires?
1.9
@@Lex-Rex thank-you brotha, what size is the engine?
What do you guys do for a job? Like WoW! You guys spend SO much money! You lucky buggers! HaHa!
U can ship to me Amazon
Awesome rig! Good guest. Nice action video......, but you have to nixx the synthesized repetitive 1980’s porn music!? LMAO!!!!!
Porn soundtrack snuck its way in. :)
I could send u enough money for u too buy truck and all mods
I can do it. Set you back about 1,500 bucks
