Amen about the axles! Seriously frustrated! Good luck brother! We use to use a thin strip of heat shrink around our mip cvd's, Woukd always keep the pins in!
Just wanted to add to this. I went and got a set. I’ve had good luck with them and not disappointed with the purchase. The micro Komodo however was super jealous and snapped a drive shaft, really that was me getting the front wheel ina bind. 😂
And you seem really genuine how people get so pissy about some of your stuff and that's what you said a lot of people get upset run their mouth or whatever but if you're trying to help people and just a comment if you read the comments were you're responding you can tell you're a nice dude good job
Finally! A little bit extra thread on the axles! Definitely interested in these now, along with the cvd's these should be a huge improvement. Thanks for the vid Matt ❤️
Thanks for the video, fitted mine Monday night. Mine doesn't have the dog bone either, combined with the castor set back, gives a great steering angle. Wasn't sure if everything was loctite but, after seeing the video I'll go ahead strip and grease. Maybe fit an o ring on the worm gear as there's a bit of slop there. Great axles so far. Cheers👍
Hey man, enjoyed the video and just joined the hobby a few months ago. Looking at portal axles now, and a lot of people have great things to say about this kit. But since this kit has come out, there is an entire ENTICING line of portals for about 55 bucks A PAIR!
Iceberg RC invented and had the portals machined. Somehow unknown to us customer, RCAWD bought the "rights" from the machine shop and now are relabeled as RCAWD. They are truly Iceberg RCs portals, NOT RCAWD
We can all say that sad all we want but when you're in a position and you have a product if that product is worth a lot of money and somebody's willing to pay that you'll sell it especially if you're not doing that good
Yeah usually when the weather gets nice I’m all about the 1/10s but now that I’ve started making a small area outdoors for these at the house I’ve actually been running them quite a bit. I was getting a little bored with my indoor course but now I’m excited about them again lol
I haven’t had any issues with wheels clearing on them. May need a small o ring or something under the wheel nut but that’ll just help the wheel nuts stay on.
Really appreciate that! I don’t think they are worth the money honestly at this scale. The amount of performance gain is very minimal and they raise cog. Add in the price of them,extra gears for wear and slop in drivetrain and the fact that there really isn’t really a great set for the scx24 (liked these but they’ve also broke cvds) id say pass honestly. I always look at price vs performance and I just can’t really justify them at their price.
Ive been running the rcawd for about a week now and haven't had issues so far after I greased them good. Ive been thinking of doing a "Short term review" type of content, it usually always works and looks good out of the box but how about after use? Maybe a week or so not sure on how optimal of a time frame, seems better if reviews could be done that way. Love it Matt stay awesome.
Man you need to compare those slime ball foams vs standard foams! A side hill steepness comparison and steering accuracy when the tire wants to smear (usually coming downhill) would be great tests
I’m waiting on a set for the scramblers now and definitely gonna do that comparison vid. I think for most of the smaller tires they aren’t a must have but are nice. For the scramblers I feel like they are a must have! Those tires are super soft! I love them but hate to sidehill with them lol
Thanks for running this stuff for us! I questioned the mofo portals not having bearings but really like what they had to offer. Good to know. I’d like to do portals soon, so I’ll be staying tuned. Well, I stay tuned anyway, but… you know what I mean.
@@wildmangeorgesrcchannel6916 A money grab? By mofo? Eh, maybe but maybe it’s just a part that needs redesigning so it functions properly. Maybe a couple shortcuts were made to keep cost down trying to bring something really cool to the table and it just didn’t work out?
@@wildmangeorgesrcchannel6916 Maybe he got rich selling a few hundred sets of portals for $100 that cost him at least $20-30 and pro’ly more? Oh wait, that’s only a few thousand dollars over the course of like six months. I don’t mean to be a dick but it’s typically not a good idea to attribute something to malice that can easily be accounted for by ignorance or any number of things that have nothing to do with taking advantage of an unknowing buyer like you. Dude at mofo would pro’ly worn you about the wear and tell you to use them at your own risk, if you asked him. Have a good one man.
@@texomarc what kind of cost would it cut if he has the metal shop. It’s lazy craftsmanship. What would it take for him to mill out a bearing seat? Not much
had the pin come out of the knuckle on my ecx temper gen 2.... on the second day of using it.... got hung up.... snapped the front drive line.... apparently all they have are plastic drive line replacements
@@2fmrc that it does. It happened to me on one of the first batches they put out of portal axles. It fell about 6” from my course to the soft dirt. On a rather light weight c10. Only added weight was their brass diff cover and front brass portal boxes.
Wow!!! Great break down on those portals. I am still running the Old Time RC ones. They have been working pretty good over all, but I have noticed that the extra driveline drag causes the motor to get warmer then normal, so I have to park it for a few minutes to cool. Have you noticed any heat issues with any of the portals you have been messing with?🤘🤘🤘
I was ready to toss my $600+ scx24 in the garbage, no, down the food disposal! 2 sets of dubious parentage axles, 3 sets of Yeah Racing axles, the axle housing, steering knuckles, bearings, wheels changed equals 5 minutes of easy crawling until the dog bones self destruct. However RC4WD offers CVD axles for non portal front axles. Mine are ordered. Hope they work or it is time to save up for a Capra and put the micro crawler genera down as a failed coulda, shoulda, woulda but didn't platform to spend my time and money on. HEY!! Liam!
Matt, where to find the chassis. I have the old time rc portals, the iceberg portals, and the mofo portals, now just waiting for the rcawd portals probably show up tomorrow Saturday been on order for a while. However I will say I had not seen or heard of the first of the portals you mentioned at the beginning of the video. Thx for sharing and always thx for being such a straight up guy with all the parts you test and install. Rock on 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Heck yeah! Let me know how you like them. The chassis is a bit hard to come by atm. They are only doing a release here and there. I found them on Facebook. I’ll try to get a link for ya
@@2fmrc awww man !! I don't have Facebook or any social media but oh well. I mostly get everything through the net but thx anyhow. I appreciate the response, thx a bunch. Rock on and keep up the cool vids.🤘🏻🤘🏻
Good customer service is good. But the best customer service is the kind you never need. Give your product free to guys like this to put through the real world, removed from the manufacturer environment.
Hey buddy have you tried running a 4 or 5 mm hex (Not +4 or 5, total) on those? That would add the 1 or 2mm that you need to tighten the wheels all the way.
When is beat the creek! I wanted take my boys if possible and can plan ahead,, plus love to meet ya ! Also that’s in Kentucky isn’t it? Beat the creek?
How do those Hyrax do in the Treal wheels. The bead has been slipping out regularly on my brass wheels and I'm trying to come up with a solution or replacement.
I have 2 sets mounted up with them and they do fine. I did install some Flubberstufferz 3D foams in one set and they would slip. Put the stock foam back in and they were fine.
What motor and ESC you got in that.....and beat the creek is like 5 hours away for me I don't know if I can make it ....love the rig man it's awesome bro
@@2fmrc sweet man same thing I'm running in my Chevy....but I got a ugly af chassie I was gonna buy a set of those portals and I went with a 2nd set of mofo I wish I would have got those now
Oh so this got me curious, since I can only get those form Aliexpress where I live, if I were to order a set which version would I get? Dog bone or cvd one, we all know how sketchy Ali listings are. Also could you do some shots of “before and after” type of deal where it show how much they lift the truck and widen it. Body on my truck already sits on lowest position possible with 3d printed mounts and I couldn’t lower it much more.
I’ll be receiving the rcawd portal axels soon was wondering other than checking for grease the portalled axels come completely set up all I have to do is take stock axels off and put these on? A little new to the rc stuff basically curious how hard this swap will be any help appreciated..
Now that we have the Fcx24 axles there is no way I would pay the price for these. I ended up breaking several of the cvds on these before selling them. For the price of these I would definitely spend just a little more and get the entire Furitek cayman chassis kit with the fcx24 axles. I haven’t broke any cvds on those yet with several months use on multiple trucks. They are definitely the only way I’d run portals at this scale. I’ve honestly started replacing all of my scx24 axles (even straight) with them because they are so good. Much more wheel speed than the worm gears and the axles are much stronger with a better turning radius. Hope this helps! furitek.com/products/furitek-cayman-barebone-carbon-fiber-kit
@@loganbeard9423 yeah they are quite a bit wider than a stock Scx24 axle but we usually widen the scx24 anyway. They take some work to get mounted up to an Scx24 but I’ve done it on most of mine at this point and that’s the reason that Furitek came out with the Cayman really. Just to make it easier if someone wants the scx24 transmission and fcx axles.
Ok right on that’s good to know. I got a ultra4 sledgehammer chassis off Etsy that is pretty sweet so I won’t need the full chassis although I’ll definitely be saving that link for a potential future build. Does FMS make those axles? They’re cheap! I’ll have to check out some videos on the install process to see how it goes in.
Yeah they would spin opposite if using these for the rear only. I have a build that I’m running rear portals with straight fronts. You have to use the panda portals for that because the worm gears for them are cut the opposite direction. That or make the worm gears out of the panda fit the scx24 portals which will take some work because the panda worm gears have a much larger output shaft and require a larger bearing inside the axle than the scx24 axles will allow.
@@2fmrc thanks again. I think i will just get the whole panda portal axle and then use a dremmel for the worm end to fit the drive shaft. Is that what you did too? Also is the panda spins the same speed as stock scx24 axle? Or any slower?
Not really interested in portals but those CV joints DO interest me. It seems the dogbones are the weakest link on the SCX24 platform. Any improvement would be welcome indeed. Matt, your outdoor course looks exactly like the rocks I crawl except my rocks go on for a mile or more on the Atlantic coast. I would be remiss without a HEY to Liam!
Maybe a little glue. They don’t actually tighten down or anything. They just rest inside there. Should be tight enough they won’t come out but they managed to slip out. Which part # you need? Most everything is in the description but I’ll get ya whatever!
@@2fmrc Awesome, thanks Matt. Ive been waiting to find something like this. I dont want to buy something then it brake a week or 2 later. Then wait a month on shipping to replace a part ect. Really enjoy your content. Your real an 90% of other rc channels just trying to push their products. Also have you tried the hr internal spring shocks on that rig by chance?
@@rcpatienceraw9751 I just got a set of the internal spring shocks for the bronco actually. They aren’t the hot racing ones but I think they are all the same basically just branded different. I wanted them so I could run the spring on the other side of the piston basically to have them pulling the truck down. The weight of the axles will give it flex when needed but otherwise it’ll be pulling the truck down on inclines. I run my desert lizards that way on the 1/10s. Just not any internal shocks that are really long enough to tune for these small trucks lol
@@2fmrc thats what i was going to mention on it will pull the front of your rig down to center of gravity. The hr are 23mm other company's are 26mm. The higher the mm the less degree incline.
Yeah the very next time I ran these I had issues. I honestly don’t know how to get in contact with them besides email. They’ve sort of stopped sending me things after I made my issues public lol
Amen about the axles! Seriously frustrated! Good luck brother! We use to use a thin strip of heat shrink around our mip cvd's, Woukd always keep the pins in!

I have a concrete section in my course that has twisted & bent like 5 front drives shaft pins. All after I put the furitek komodo in though.
Yeah it’s hard on them for sure!
I just bought some RCAWD portals for my build and they are pretty nice out of the box. I hope they are lubed
Ordered my rcawd portals yesterday! Hopefully they can clear injora and rc4wd wheels
I haven’t had any issues with wheels clearing on them. May need a small o ring or something under the wheel nut but that’ll just help the wheel nuts stay on.
I run Samix 3.5mm hex on my portal, so I can run the treal wheels too.
Putting it together using some type of drill or electric gun to put it together so I can go real fast and snapped it off and didn't realize it
Love the channel Matt. At the end of the day are portals worth it? Is the overall performance better, or is it not really needed at this scale? 🤔
