Could you be able to do this for the trx4m if so how much please

So funny, I built literally the exact same thing as you around the same time, I just dug mine out and started looking at youtube videos to see what was out there now in the diy rc airboats.. I think even my bodyboard is the same size as yours, the only thing different beween ours would be the slots you cut on the bottom and a 3 blade prop, Mine was a 2 blade... I also installed a cage over mine as It kept flipping over at high speed braking the props.. I only used it on grass.. I could never get it to stop flipping over on high power runs.. I tried moving the battery up font and it did tame it a bit, but then it wouldnt come up on plane until half throttle, meaning it was hard to get moving on the grass..

I mounted the electronics on the skids. Then I moved the plastic mount for the electronics to the front of the truck (I trimmed the sides of it to fit it between the body mounts on the front). A flat Scx24 battery fits perfectly right there. Use the rear most hole on the electronics mount as the hole for your front shocks and the other hole will line up with the triangle of the chassis, just run a screw all the way bottomed out into there and it will rest on the triangle and is plenty stiff despite it not actually threading through a hole in the chassis.

Why are the holes so big?

Please could you provide me with one battery tray and electronic tray ..to help improve my ratio Also please could you advise what oil goes into my shocks unfortunately they arrived with no oil many thanks andy

How do I order one from you?

How do you order?

Cant DYNO The Vehical While Its Elevated

Been a fan of yours for along time.. I still have my redcat sumo..crawler..with the Lanzu Controller..I want to use the electronics in one of my builds ..but my nephew was playing with the controller and changed all the settings. So now it doesn’t want to go in reverse, full throttle. It’s been three years that I had no batteries in the controller, and when I bind to the receiver It’s still remembers the memory of the screwed up settings I built SX 24 with two deadbolt rear ends on the green sumobody.. it crawles amazing one day I’ll figure out those electronics and make it a four-wheel steer. Thanks for the inspiration .I modify crawlers and fabricating parts without a printer.. lol😂 I have two of those sumo crawlers and one day I’ll get them back on the road !! Thanks again for providing the community with that tray.. I love my furitek wagon.. Now I can take the stick weights off my servo.😂 keep up the good work …now I know you designed my wagon. It’s just that much more special to me now. Bless you and your family .. Keep up the good work!!

Do you know if I can make this fit an ax24? I hear if I change the skid plate and links to scx24

Thanks!!! 😀

Can you share the stl

brilliant video dude, im in england and ive just ordered one of these. this video was so helpful

I like what you are doing and planned to do something similar. I'd recommend having a board at the bottom where you can hide the sensors from the air flow and make the car low to the ground plane. This will allow the ground effect to work correctly. Then you need to make sure the airflow is straight before it hits the car. 3d printing some tubes or gluing straws together are 2 simple options.

How you turn over your crankshaft to clean the rest of the intake manifold holes!? What fob you use or how you do that??

Wtf are you doing?

What gear did you use for the output shaft on the motor? Do you have a link?😊

Super cool. All your designs are amazing

New Sub! awesome test and good info on the 787, the wind tunnel is pretty cool, PB on my 787 right now is 94

Since doenforce is pressure differential over an area the excess gap under the car means this really only allowed the rear wing to work. You're on the right track though, good work. Also if you can build a tube matrix with straws or cardboard or whatever to reduce the turbulent air flow as well as the flat floor you'll see those numbers increase by 20% or more.

Awesome work. I need a set of those!

Getting a flat floor in there will probably change the dynamics of things. Killer work.

Very interesting, dude! Yes, that lift on the front is kind of disturbing, especially at such low wind speed. I was watching some KZfaq documentaries about the topic a few months back, specifically about the Mercedes take-off at Lemans back then. The amount of car overhang in front of front axle is quite a lot. I'm guessing Rlaarlo didn't really do any testing themselves, they just made an RC car that looks like this particular sportscar. I'm looking forward to see your results on your aero improvements, but of course much of this you can also compensate for with suspension tuning. Very cool stuff to watch, I am happy I saw this in my news feed!

Oh, very interesting! Like you said, pretty impressive result, it does seem to provide downforce. I have never seen this done on an RC car, only in motorsport documentaries, heh... Interesting to see you went to speedrun stuff after all the stuff you did for small scale crawlers.

That's awesome to see it producing some rear downforce even at that low wind speed! I designed some small wheel cradles that I 3d printed for my scales that make it easier to get consistent positioning of the wheels on the scales. The scales seem really sensitive to how repeatable your positioning on each scale to get consistent results.

That’s why testing is done. Good work!

Almost need to make a foam bottom that goes around those scales in there and acts like ground so there isnt so much airflow going underneath it. One thing that would be awesome to get some really fast air is a leaf blower, I know the backpak ones can get up to 215-230mph coming outta its nozzle. Even the small handheld ones can get some pretty high speeds too and are way cheaper to get ahold of.

I hadn't seen this vid when I commented - super cool brother. Definitely don't want a front fan - only pull fan.

I love this. Couple of notes - lighting inside and towards the far wall of the tunnel and darkening the room should improve smoke visibility. Also I am sure you have done this but the air needs to be as laminar as possible entering the tunnel - at a smaller scale you can achieve this by putting a heap of bundles of straws (5cmish) the same size of the tunnel at the intake. You can then take your smoke wand and put it in from the top or side, sealed with silicon etc to provide minimal interference while being able to position it as you need. Really cool project. All you would need to add is some scales - you can get away with two cheaper digital scales end to end - one for front and one for rear wheels although ideally the skyrc scales would be what you want. This allows real differential measurements and with a bit of calibration would allow you to better understand down force changes. Even running a load cell or scale at the rear to be able to calculate drag... It's all simple stuff but man it's fun. Also - a basic anemometer to better reference airspeed.

Whats the highest speed the wind can move with those fans? Edit: oh ok, 10.5mph. cant wait to see the highspeed version of this setup!

I appreciate the thought you put into this and the options built in for improvement.

Nice upgrade 🔵🔵🔵🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍🔵🔵🔵

I'm going to be completely honest with you. The design of the truck is killer. It is well thought out and dead sexy. The components you've chosen form a very formidable package. I love that you thought about the end user and the basic concept of rcing as FUN. I also appreciate that you wanted to make the vehicle enjoyable directly from the box without having to purchase another $500 in parts to enjoy it. However, with much excitement and anticipation, I charged the battery, checked the basic setup, and took her for a flatland cruise around my living room. Ran great! The throttle modulation is simply unreal. So I tossed a Harley Davidson parts catalog (approximately 2" thick) onto the floor for her first small obstacle. I chose a quartering line and slowly crept up the side of the book. That's when I lost the throttle. The motor was turning, but I had no motion. I picked the truck up and flipped it over to find the droop of the front axle was greater than the travel of the slip yoke on the driveshaft. It separated the front driveshaft which caused the u joint to bind the driveline and grenaded the rear shaft. So, that was my first impression of this highly anticipated model. I am aware that to meet the target price point and keep this little monster affordable, it is necessary to compromise somewhere in the parts selection. Come on though, can we sacrifice the pointless mirrors or flashy paint rather than the driveline which is the most critical and abused module? If I'm honest, the prop shafts are junk and will likely steer my decision to buy all of the kids and grandkids and nieces and nephews, your competitors offering to avoid the heartbreak on Christmas morning.

Nice work! Did you 3d print the ducts or make them some other way?

I love how transparent you are!

You did a great job designing this platform. Absolutely agree with everything you said in the video.

cool mate this is something I was wondering about if this could be a good solution to replace the broken valve system

Just come across this post , , you gave me inspiration for those who don't have access to a 3d printer , I've removed the rear electronics tray flipped it over and managed to get it fit the front and the gap in the tray sits either side of the motor the screws line up with the chassis rails but on an angle , ti over come the angle I used a bit of heat and put a bend into the tray , it fits my battery perfectly under the body with the body mounts on the lowest placement and still leaves a gap between the servo and plate ,, On the issue of side skids I used some 1mm abs styrene and put a 90° bend in that to hold my esc and rx ,

The real Fat Girl has been retired.😢

How do you fit/cut the tire to fit?

I've been building the scx24 cars for a while now but I have a basha rocksta that I would like to get a good chassis for , could you tell me where I can get this from please or have you made this yourself.

Talk to the team about overdrive gears please

It has a lot more support and aftermarket. It however does not perform as well as the fcx24. I also have both tricked out and tuned. The fcx24 always does better.

Can this esc/motor handle 3s?

Long time follower of yours. Great work on THIS! Keep it up 👍 because the price on this Will sell for every one! Thanks To you and Furitek.

Dope dude. Love all the dope shit you designed. Building another Olympus now. Fury wagons a beast too just added wheels and tires and got my 60/40 and it’s keeping up with my more expensive rigs

So you manufacture the chassis

Really great job designing this truck! I'm loving mine, and enjoying adding my own touch of character to it. I like the 1st example of those sliders! 🤙

Do you have a link for us to where we can buy the sliders from furitek

Would be nice if furitek could just produce those trays. Some of us don’t print or want to have to find someone who can print for us.
