Im new into RC things, and of all the tutorials this one was one of my favorites. I never thought to try making some concrete mountains. Awesome idea and amazing tutorial!

Nice work. You’re the Bob Ross of crawler mountains dude. I’m over here with loose piles and you got me thinking I could just shape them somewhat and layer over it with your concrete mix recipe. Mark from SW Appalachia, Virginia.

Bro!!! That came out sick!!!! I like that you used old furniture for the sub structure. Adding concrete dye is one way to add color, but my favorite way is to use liquid and granular Iron-ite for lawns. Spray the concrete down with the liquid and sprinkle the granular all over. It will rust in streaks. It will look like sand stone in Moab. Great job bro!!!🤘🤘🤘

Looks awesome, one tip for the next time you can use wire mesh over the wood and when you apply the concretes stays there the mesh holds it together. Just over the wood it will crack eventually and may if even fall off on some sections. 👍👍

@texomarc 2 жыл бұрын

Yessir. You can color the concrete but it’s going to be uniform. I’ll prolly end up just staining it. The acrylic works great if there’s no direct sunlight be it’s going to fade pretty fast without protection. I sure appreciate you brother! Hope you have a great one.

Turned out great. Hope you found a cool day to work in, understand you've been having a few hot spells. New axles are out, you were right. They are wider, 4mm per side. Not cheap. But they are fully built and ready to go. The rear runs 16t while the front is 13t.

@texomarc 2 жыл бұрын

Yessir! I talked to Jeff from injora and he said they should be shipping with brass parts installed instead of the aluminum in a few weeks. They also need cvds. Not cheap? Hardly more expensive than stock! When I built the range it was over a hundred plus the heat index. A little sweat is a good thing, my guy! Lol. Hope you have a great weekend, buddy.

@Hi_Doctor_Nick 2 жыл бұрын

@@texomarc I was just about to order from them, its in my cart. I'll wait a couple of weeks then. Thanks for the heads up 👍 When I mean not cheap, I'm comparing it to a normal metal axle housing, but then your able to swap over the internals from the stock housing. Once you price up all the bearings, gears, shafts and steering links it not all that bad. I like the fact they offer them as single or pairs. I was going for the twin steering axle set for a 4WS setup. I got a Fly Sky GT5 which will be brilliant for this.

@texomarc 2 жыл бұрын

@@Hi_Doctor_Nick Yessir! I think that’s what I’m going to do as well. However, I wouldn’t want all the brass in the rear. I may send Jeff another message and just give him a heads up and maybe they can offer it that way? One with brass and overdrive with one that’s aluminum and standard? Or you can just swap the gear yourself.

Sir love the info. How did you color it. Keep up the good work bro

@texomarc Жыл бұрын

Cheap acrylic paints mixed in a spray bottle with water. Works best not to get in a hurry and plan on doing multiple (many) coats. A bug sprayer would save squeezes. I’d error on too little paint than too much. Easy to add more. Proly somewhere between 8-12:1 (water:paint). Just spray it down, let it dry and repeat. Can very between light and dark, thick and thin coats to get different effects/coloring. I made it up as I went, so… thanks for hanging out brother! Any other questions, hit me up on insta or Joshua Darrel Ratliff on Facebook. Hope you have a great one.

When you say mix in sand do you mean like dirt if your soil is sandy or what kind of sand?

@texomarc Жыл бұрын

Sand mix. It’s sackcrete. Comes in a 60lbs bag. You certainly could just get some cement and use sand but I haven’t done that. It was the white and green bag. It’s the same as the quikcrete, it just has sand instead of the gravel. Hope that helps! Have a great weekend bro!
