This is another great review. I like the van body, because it's different. There are so many good small scale crawlers. It's a very competitive market.

Awesome review as usual! Well done my friend!

I like turn signals, it's a nice touch. Maybe include the ability to switch the off though, seems they get much hate too. Not really a deal breaker IMHO

Hi, I have an Evo hunter and a new fcx18. The gearbox of the former is much louder. Should grease be applied somewhere?

Hi it looks like your an expert on this truck I was wondering if you can tell me how come the battery its a FMS 7.7 600 mah keeps going bad on me causing the truck to not turn on. I'm up to my third battery so far when the truck doesn't run the only thing that will get it to go is a new battery, a little help please.

@RCReviewChannel 9 ай бұрын

I believe it goes bad because the electronics drain the battery very slowly even when the car is turned off. The solution is ALWAYS unplug the battery after use.

Is the harvest body the same size as the panda hobby power wagon body?

@doctorhelicopter 5 ай бұрын

The Hobby plus are a bit long and skinny. I have the Panda 1/18 and it's way more scale, similar length I guess.

Seems like these are way more Capable than the lc80 or k5, I guess primarily Due to the lexan body.

My atlas did too. Replaced w metal gears and run the hell outta it. I’m gettin ready to replace the esc to get better slow crawl w it.

@AnyAssumptionBanter Жыл бұрын

the evo version supposed to come with all metal gears in portals, diffs I've heard.. but haven't heard if its also in the transmission. and the evo t-hunter is a weird setup under the hood. prob be a long wait to see what aftermarket parts will be available to move things around.

Like trokaRC said, these don’t need a ton of mods. Throw their oil filled shocks on, a little option parts brass, and some good wheels and tires. And these will do a lot for the money you’ve spent on it.

Its another 18th scale. I'm a 24 man. The fcx24 k5 is really an 18th but the fcx24 power wagon is where its at. Out of the box (with a stretch of wb and some new rims and tires) nothing performs better than fcx24 power wagon. The side mounted servo annoys me. Maybe its the visual offset. Great vehicles though....but not the best bang for your buck. If you want to give pros a run for their money you will need an fcx24 power wagon. Great vid dude. Keep em coming👍🤠👍

@DTW-bx2vy 9 ай бұрын

The FCX24 has too short of a wheel base to be a 1/18 scale, it is certainly a true 1/24 scale actually.

@anon556 7 ай бұрын

The stupid turn signals will always keep me from buying a car. There is no time where turn signals would be used when driving off road. Certainly not anytime the wheel leaves center. Its not hard to put a seperate switch for left/right indicator. Shame.

@ectorvalle4059 5 ай бұрын

Just unplug the turn signal lights from the ESC 🤦🏽. That's a lame excuse to miss out on a cool little rig!🤷🏽

@spike3834 Жыл бұрын

Wrong! The fms fcx24 k5, and smasher are a better value. They are hands down the best small scale rigs. Check it out for yourself. Spike 383

@RCReviewChannel Жыл бұрын

Yeah, the K5 is my favorite. Just need them damped shocks.

@JUSTHAVEFUNRC Жыл бұрын

Are they though? This undercuts them by $5 and out the box will crawl better than them. Better tires as well. Only thing the fcx24 has on this crawling wise is shocks which can be oil filled.

@spike3834 Жыл бұрын

Yep, they are tough. And they have a better more compact transmission.

@JUSTHAVEFUNRC Жыл бұрын

@@spike3834 it’s more compact at the cost of sitting way taller. And off to one side. Which isn’t the best for crawling performance.

This will beat the brakes of a scx24 gladiator and for cheaper. Scx24’s are old news unless you take most of the stock parts off lol. Weak servo and motor. Tires are pretty bad as well.

The Axial sucks compered to these or the fcx24's. I own a C10 and the fcx24 blazer. The Axial sits on the shelf because thats where it works the best and I use the fcx24 because you can actually use it outside .
