    I bought the orange one earlier this year and it had the same problem, weak, then jumpy throttle when under load. Reverse worked great though, so I reversed the motor wires and the soldered. Works fine now.

  • @VermontScaleCustoms
    @VermontScaleCustoms Před rokem +4

    The thing I didn’t like about the OG FY003a was the non-proportional motor steering. Mine still had the while plastic adjustment underneath. I ended up harvesting the body and mounting it on an RGT 13161 chassis. Mine was also only $40 and probably had not been upgraded like your original one.
    Satin black looks decent. Looks exactly like my RC4WD 1:18 D90 I ended up installing on an SCX24 chassis a couple of years ago. I wonder if MN will update their version now.

    If you're able, you should check out one of the short wheelbase Corally 1/8 6s (dementor xp, jambo xp, etc.) They're on sale pretty much everywhere on and offline for $430-$440 USD. A great bargain at that price point I reckon. My chassis isn't even bent (yet) after I pulled a 35ft jump with a flat landing. They're probably more rigid than the long wheelbase counterpart Kronos many reviewers ran in the past. I used a full size front diffuser support to make a steel center chassis brace because I wasn't sure about the angled plastic ones from factory. But it looks like in some markets, like France, it actually comes with a center metal brace AND a GPS holder

    cool..totally new here... watched a couple of videos so far. I seem to go for the crawling stuff rather than the speed ones. I only found out about these RC things cos i was looking on ebay for something for my real 4x4... and it took me to a 1/10 scale set lol. I own a mid 90s Pajero gen 2 (Shogun in UK spec). which i am modding, so i can drive back to Ukraine in it.. i was there in March helping animals..
    Story short i like these, i make plastic models, Airfix etc people think of first... planes, tanks, soldiers.. and the odd US cop car. But i would love to buy one of these RC things, find a body shell and then add all the detail sets i saw, like shovels, hi lift jacks etc.. but also detail with the airbrush and by hand small stuff.. Would love to make a roof back to match mine, and the other bits added. I must watch more videos when i get time (i trap and rescue feral cats and kittens here in Sheffield and around for charities)
    Nice to find a UK channel as all others were US based. i still dont understand half you are on about... but seems fun.... and i need more fun in my life.

    Why do they do that? 😩. Take a perfectly decent product and "upgrade" it - making it better to look at potentially, but ruining functionality 🙄. Then, of course there's a clamour for the '"mk1" which results in inflated prices and ultimately poor value 🙁. Love the channel - just discovered it. Thinking of getting another crawler myself. My last one was a Tamiya CR01 (SJ) which was a kit in those days (10 years ago). RC Crawling was unknown where I lived at the time. People who saw me out with mine were curious - but the inevitable first question from Muggles was always, "How fast does it go?" 🤔😂😂

    Soo I guess if you want one of these you have to buy 2, one for the chassis and electronics and one for the body 🤣😅

    I like the details, but not the scale. And if you want better drive-ability, obviously you'd have to find an older one and swap the 'leccies into it!

      Yeah.. I expect it will be easily upgraded. Shame they messed with it!
