Nice vid man, thanks! I just got a FTX Utah, which is just the same as the Evo Pro but licensed for Europe.. (Same as the HobbyPlus GOAT too!) These axels look really good, but got to save up a bit more before I can justify spending.... : ) Those axels, the aluminium Links, and a new steering servo, that's my shopping list haha! : )
@DoURC 7 күн бұрын
Thanks very much 👍 Yeah they're all basically the same rig. I really like the axles, really nice quality and definitely made a difference with some extra weight. You could just buy some brass wheels instead, that would add some nice low weight. The stock tyres are OK, but the Injora Cling Ons are awesome. 👍😎

Thanks very much mate. I'm sure you could work your magic on the shafts. 👍 Yeah they do stuff for lots of other brands too. I already run their axles on one of my FCX24 K5's and my TRX4M High Trail. 👍

Great content! I have the same rig with same rcawd upgrades, for better weight distribution I use stock plastic rear portal covers on this rcawd rear axel. I also noticed that slop on the portal shafts, i’m almost sure there is too much play in the portals ball bearings, I have to try hobby plus/furitek bearings set
@DoURC 21 күн бұрын
Thanks very much 👍😁 It's an awesome rig isn't it. Yeah I wondered that on the bearing, but the pin is really thin, so it looked more like movement on the pin, as the brass cover just sits on it like a normal hex adapter. Will see if I have some thicker pins to try. 👍

I need one of these, your reviews of them are great! Are they waterproof if they do take a tumble into water? 👍
@DoURC 24 күн бұрын
Thanks very much 👍😁 No they're not waterproof, the motor is an outrunner, so it's not sealed. You can see the board on the ESC too, so I wouldn't trust getting it wet tbh. Furitek are bringing out an all in one fully waterproof esc soon, like a Fusion for a tenth scale. 👍

@@DoURC added locktite 638 to the pins the hold the gears to the shafts and also added so PTFE tape around the end of the shafts where they go into the diffs. So much better now. I have a video on the difference it has made on my channel if you want to have a look.

They really should come with metal driveshafts. Since its so hard to find the proper fitting shafts.
@DoURC 13 күн бұрын
Yeah, it's all about cost saving I guess. So far the stock plastic ones have been OK. Hopefully Injora or RCAWD will do some soon, as I think it will become a more popular rig now some other brands have taken it on as well, like FTX. 👍
@DanhNguyenster64 13 күн бұрын
@@DoURC my driveshafts gave out as have many others. The cr18 line is very confusing to find proper fitting shafts. Rcawd says they make one for the evo pro t hunter but the rear is 4mm too long. Need 45mm front 60mm rear.
@DoURC 13 күн бұрын
@DanhNguyenster64 Ah ok. Yeah I guess it's similar to the TRX4M and FCX18 where they have different wheelbase models. I'm surprised the CR18P Evo isn't more popular tbh, as its such good value for money. 👍

mate a similar things happening to me. my servo cant cope with the weight ive put on the fcx18, ive contacted multiple companys asking for a direct fit upgrade and no one is replying. those rcawd axles look good

@DoURC 24 күн бұрын
Yeah the stock steering servo on the FCX18 can't handle much extra weight. The FCX18 uses the different connectors, but I think you can get adaptor cables, pretty sure I saw one recently. The Evo Pro or FTX Utah just use a standard receiver, so you could fit any micro servo. 👍

Are you in the US? I only ask due to the Amazon US links and in other videos you say dollars instead of pounds or maybe both. The truck looks good, a lot of money altogether mind you. Edit: Might be worth removing the link for the driveshafts seeing as they don't fit.

No I'm in the UK. The Amazon links are because of the Amazon Associate program. I say dollars as most my viewers are outside the UK and most the sites list all their stuff in dollars, so is just easier. 👍
