    I don't know for sure but I think the Axial SCX6 has the same size wheels as the Losi Super Rock Rey, but if that's the case, there is Proline Hyrax in the size. I know the tires are overall the same height. I'm about 75% sure the wheels are the same size. What I'm getting at is the Proline Hyrax would probably be great on the SCX6 and the Hyrax will have a bit stiffer sidewall which with all the extra weight your SCX6 has might be a great option. Just putting that out there.

      I actually think this truck is a great in the middle basher /trail /crawler truck.
      Where as the traditional bashers are not trail trucks at all really. Lol.
      I also had this idea probably around the time Axial started the design for a 6 or 5th scale solid axial truck that could be built to bash a little more & bigger because the after market with materials has gotten so good.
      This is how we got bashers invented in the mid 2k’s.

    You are favorite hop up madman LoL
    I bought nearly every VITAVON part you have... Just need a better servo and MAMBA X 8S esc. Though likely I will have to destroy the original RTR stuff first. 4S oughta fix that 😁
    Then I'll series harness them 4 S batteries for some real fun 🤪
    Only thing is Horizon Hobby has yet to deliver me the Trail Honcho I paid for. So much for the overnight shipping fee I added on to that purchase. Horizon Hobby is transcending to a new system right in the middle of my ebay purchase. I have to wait until the 18th so I can get an ebay refund and buy the dang rc truck on AMAZON Prime. (which I should have done in beginning) So I'm sitting a mega fortune of hop parts 😯 But besides that hiccup I'm following you closely. (copying you actually. LoL) When I get done I will have spent over $ 4-5 K on this toy altogether. (including the initial RTR)
    Better be fun and not break too easily ? 🤪

    • @Chon-c
      @Chon-c Před 2 lety +1

      Sure. And the 1717 castle would be awesome.
      But you might rather have the 1100 or 800 kv castle tho for a lower crawl capability control like Joe has on 6s. Because he is running the 1717 on 8s I think on this build vid today .
      You could have the same speed as joe’s here too with a 6 s 1717 .
      He just has it geared at the bottom. But it could stand a 14,15 or even a 16 tooth pinion to actually do the same .
      I don’t think you could tell a huge difference over all running that low of a gear ratios.
      But if gearing it up ,then you would be able to tell a lot more .
      His speed differences on 6s i think was only like 4 mph. In 2nd gear on top speed .
      But I think you could gear it up on the pinion and still keep it great to crawl.
      To get the best throttle control you would need the 14 tooth .
      I’m not sure about the tooth options for the spur yet.
      I am still researching.
      Bcuz I am looking to build /buy this truck in prices to built one the short route. Lol. Joe goes the long way most of the time by getting RTR’s.
      A person could save A-lot (probably 1500$ for a total cost instead of 3500 ) by building one in pieces. And getting the TREAL housings .
      They are cheaper metal parts that are almost as good.
      Vitivon is just hard to beat as far as technicals & designs . But those little things are where you pay the bigger price for his stuff.
      In some parts it’s just a bigger barring is all you get over TREAL piece or something like that. And they are hundreds less in total cost of everything together.
      Or I am thinking we could save a lot from what I have seen so far .
      Buying the trans in single pieces would be the biggest worry of mine.
      Because the rest is what it is.
      With exception to the axels themselves. They gotta be reused out of the stock parts.
      I actually think this truck could be built for 1500$ (maybe even cheaper) without the electrics .
      Which most of us already has . Like me.
      I’ll just run my max 6 in my revo on 8 s & put it into this.
