Picked mine up a few days ago. Installed the light kit and placed it back in the box. Christmas present for my son. It definitely looks and feels like a quality product.

Picked mine up on Friday ( first hobby grade rc) thank you for posting this video I’m not sure if I pushed it to hard over the weekend but I need to add oil to the shocks 3 leaked 1 is empty 🤦🏼♂️ but being able to repair or replace parts is one reason why I got it, love it though I have a tiny yard and it’s a huge playground for this little bronco and I still totally recommend it for anyone tight on space or money looking to get into the hobby

This is my 1st RC. I should get my defender this week from a local shop. I enjoyed your videos. I like the speed video but it would be nice to see a close up of the parts, it would also break up the speed video. It wasn't all that informative and kind of made me dizzy. Thankyou for commentating on the install time. What would be your first 3 upgrade suggestions? Maybe a video of oil filling the aluminum shocks? Light bar would be fun. Im planning on modifying the body by cutting the back hatch off to make it look like a extend cab defender truck. Ill keep the roll cage and roof rack, and put in a false bed. The back hatch will be the the new back of the cab. Ill morph the body panels in with body damage and scratches.

Thanks for the super constructive response! Agreed, the time-lapse thing wasn’t as cool as we thought it might be when we filmed everything. I even had that thought while editing it - it was just kind of chaotic at that speed, but if I slowed it down it really dragged. I think if we do this kind of thing in the future we’ll just cut out a lot of the tear-down and whatnot and really focus on the parts of the install that might present problems or interest for people. As far as the first three upgrades, I think that will probably vary for the individual to some extent. We tried to cover the bases here with the best upgrades from the selection so far, but a prioritized order is a little trickier. The links and servo mount are good contenders, and that light kit is incredibly cool - seems like a no-brainer. I think the driveshafts are probably something you can just upgrade when you need to replace the stock ones, and the shocks are probably also something you could do when the stock ones present a problem. Similarly, though, you could probably just do the servo mount at some point when you change a servo. The order will kind of depend on your needs as you use it. We’re sort of planning our videos for the next year, and one of our thoughts for the spring was a series of videos on suspension tuning (springs, haha), so we’ll definitely try to work a small-scale shock video into that rotation. That modification sounds super cool! Maybe we’ll do some sort of call to action at some point to send us photos/video to share. It’d be really neat to showcase other people’s stuff at some point. In the meantime, though, send us some pictures to info@nankinhobby.com, we’d definitely like to see it when you finish!

I’ve seen a lot of guys printing, or buying, 3D printed light bars/buckets. Your mileage may vary but with some tinkering they can look awesome, I just don’t like cutting holes in my bodies… even if it’s hard to see it always sticks out like a sore thumb to me! But maybe I’m just not good at making it look right 😁

Nice video, do you think the shocks can be repositioned to accommidate bigger tires like the LGRP trail kings?
@NankinHobby Жыл бұрын
You could probably put bigger tires on with just some body modifications.
