I'm Back! huge thanks, and a kyosho blizzard!!
Hpi died in my book forever, not doing that again. The 90s called and asked hpi to bring out the nitro MT...
It looks right at home in the snow.👍
And performed well!
Sadly the rtr's are pushing $539. So they are not the cheapest
Which do you mean Eric? Fordyce and phoenix rtr are still under 500 at amain
Those Ventures were always so nice looking I thought. Great video Gerry. Nice watching some wrenching
Thanks buddy! And pretty well designed 👌
Love that rig!!! Looks so nice Gerry bet that was lot of shoveling 😮
Thanks J, daily since my dogs have no respect for my work!
@gerrysoldguyreview lol!
Nope, not bored at all. reminds me of myself trying to figure out what’s going to work or not all part of the fun! This video actually reminded and inspired me to pull out one of my trucks and do a little maintenance!
Glad I could inspire you to get out and work on your truck!
Thanks for getting frost bite for us, cool rig looked at home out there 👍
Any time!
Thanks Gerry 👍
You bet!
Servo needs to go in the other way around. So the spline is further away from the front.
I like it...golden hour all the time
Thank you 😊
Awesome drive time. Nice to see this beast in action.
Thanks man! It's a blast to drive!
Awesome video again thank you 🙏
My pleasure!
Awesome looking rig 😮
I love it
Such a great looking rig! 🤓
It is a beast!
20th like👍
Those embankments look about 15ft high great job, keep them coming! 👍
Probably 20 ft...to a 1/12 scale 😁
And those trucks, the sound system, the chains, you couldn't ask for a nicer looking, sounding, and performing RC's
@@TheMindsEyeRC so what scale are these bad boys ? 1/10 or 1/12 ?
Thanks man! I agree, they're a joy to drive.
1/12 my good man
And the filming is great! I've been trying to do some of that myself, where you bring the RC in from a distance towards a stationary camera, rather than me trying to chase my RC around like a total knob the whole time!
I’m still learning new things with the camera every time I’m out. But you are the first to say my filming is great!!🤣🤣
Fantastic video! The way you built up all that snow to create roads to make it look like you're in, I don't know, Alaska or something, great work!
Thanks! The snow adds so much to the realism. Takes forever to shave that many ice cubes!🤣🤣
@@gerrysoldguyreview Well, at least you can say your commitment is a 10/10
Solid 8 1/4th!🤣🤣
Nice rig with those temps you have it shows it’s built tough and I bet you don’t get much battery life up there either down here mostly it’s just make it waterproof because we get more rain than we need
I get more then enough of both, rains half the summer lately so all are definitely waterproof. Double digits about 0 don't notice much in runtime but any single digits and you do notice the battery's don't like it!
I know what you mean about the one and done being that I’m blind. I can’t use the editors so it’s one taken done and will let you slide on the can’t drive in -27°. That’s more like break parts time so hope you do get some more warm weather and enjoy your time.
Thanks buddy! Love that you are in the hobby
Should I complain like that one guy on other video? Or shall we all learn to just watch & hit like.
Anything is fair game!😁😁🤣
@gerrysoldguyreview lmao 🤣 👍
Since I think I'm the complainer, I say we hit the like button every time!
Great choice of beverage, glad you made this. I may need this as reference. Fj looks sick!!
To bad it took so long to come to market it is a pretty good truck!
I still have my venture, it's my 4.19 trail truck to this day, it's actually on my table in the process of a rebuild coming up. After market is eh but it should come back
So true, hopefully the aftermarket will come back. Club5 racing has some bits for it.
@gerrysoldguyreview hot racing has the link kit still that I currently own for mine, it comes with aluminum front and rear like mounts, if you dig hard enough you can find some great stuff for the venture, I think it's scalerfab if I remember correctly they have sliders for it, I've got a whole list of stuff that is available for the venture. I actually was hoping they'd come out with the battery mounts from the new RTR as option parts so I can buy it and don't have to get the kit or an RTR and strip it.
Such a cool rig. Looks great and the sound kit adds that extra cool factor. Thanks for the run footage.
Thanks buddy! The weight and chains make it a great winter rig
Twelve inches of misery merry christmas
Same to you my friend!
As a matter of fact, that's exactly what I did. I drove around my 69 Chevy. And 72 blazer high trail? It was a good ride.? Sorry for your c***** weather.We're gonna have 50s here to.Day yippy
Rub it in kevin!🤣🤣
🤣
Twenty seven below27 Below that's all what about the windshield 😵💫
I can't say how much I like in nebraska
😅😅
I don’t think the SBK kit ever went away. They did re-release the Ventute RTR as that fugly truck with all the FJC plastic accessories on it…😂 kinda funny. Like they had all of those bits left over… but lost the FJ license. -well I found something we disagree on… @12:08 😂😂😂
Come on , fugly is the new beautiful 🤣🤣 I know the kit was around like 5 years ago then vanished. Amain just got them again this summer. I totally missed the fj accessories on the new venture! At least both have more metal then the og but it seems the kit is the og venture and the rtr has a few different designed parts! And hpi claims to have the toyota license again.
@@gerrysoldguyreview luckily I found 2 clear bodies just before those vanished as well. Always wanted to do a replica kinda of mine. But… now I have a Utron build coming up with actual IFS(2), and a ton of scale goodies to make it an FJC truck. So a clear body build for that one is next up. I like that you’re getting the SBK to build. I swear RPP has always had it, but they may have just never sold out of it. You may be right there is a SBK2.0 release. So much to keep up with in this hobby!! 😝 Cheers Gerry!
Awesome video Gerry 👌 it's good to know someone has a builders kit and is reasonably priced 😊
It’s a must-have for sure!
I’ve got the grey one! Love the Venture and of course I own an FJC 1/1.
This was my first 1/10 crawler as well… 😊 still my favorite. Got it fully built out just before they discontinued all the aftermarket for them basically.
I do miss our FJ!
It never got very big, and like me many were worried about breaking bits!
@ don’t know if I will ever part with mine (fingers crossed). Seems to be keeping/gaining value though. Sucks they are no more here. Not sure if they are still in the fleet in other parts of the world. (1/1 that is)
That pretty awesome truck👍🏆
Thanks, they sure are!
That rig looks great out in the snow. Awesome video Gerry 👌
It’s a blast in the snow!
That thing is a beast ! Looks friggin awesome truckin through the snow
It's a great way to spend a winter day!
Great video again Gerry ! I love the F bomb haha
I know right?!
It is very weird where they put metal and where they didn't, are the new releases the same? nice rig thanks for sharing.
Both the kit and rtr have more metal bits to include links
Hi Venture was one of my favorites when it was first released. Great part one 👍
Yeah its a great truck. And thanks!
I've gotta super stretched truck an trailer I love it only drove it a few time tho
It's tough when they get really long
I listened to all Your let it fly episodes in my coveralls pocket today like a podcast while I feed this crusher ! Shout out to the wives that support us I know you mentioned it in another video too ! Appreciate what you do Gary and liked hearing about your dad and life’s journey, I’ll be tuning in every chance I get ! You inspire a few of us to make our own videos and help bring us all together! Don’t change a thing 😃
That is so awesome to hear Jay, thanks for the support my friend! And I subbed to your channel!
@ jeeze that’s awesome thank you ! I really appreciate you taking the time to check me out and leave a couple comments Gerry it actually means a lot . Keep the rc faith alive ❤️
I buy a axial 1/24 and yes is a little problematic to work with this small screw and the think is, I put a lot of upgrate to get performace, so when redcat relese the ascent 1/18, I buy is more easy to work and the performace out of the box is ridiculos.
I want one so good to know its good!
I'm seriously considering a TRX4 High Trail K10. I have 3 FMS FCX10 Blazers, a Redcat Gen 8, and a Redcat Gen 9. I like them all, but am really wanting to know how the Traxxas compares to the FCX10.
Very similar, trx4 is dumbed down , point and shot but also bullet proof! Fms is more technical which is nice.
I love my trx4s...I've got the 79 n 21 broncos an a trx sport... and a trx6 hauler I love me some traxxas......also got a redcat gen 8 an I love it an I Got some rc4wd an I like em all for different reasons...
Nice collection 👌 I agree and also love them all!
Good discussion. Love the dogs.
Thanks buddy!
I smoked my my stock 6x6 hauler motor...an my only complaint is the narrow bed
Totally agree on the bed! But I do have some rc4wd that fit!
I love my redcats!
Can't go wrong!
also you can use the radio to set endpoints on the microservos to adjust the diff lockers fairly easily. The shop mini RC did a really good deep dive on this truck that shows all of this
Had that done by pt 2😁
@@gerrysoldguyreview haha going to have to watch part two now. lolll
you can convert the dig function to RWD in the transmission fairly easily by moving A pin
From what I understand it requires disassembly of the transmission and flipping the gear.
yeah it’s kind of hard to explain in a comment but you basically have to remove a pin and place it on another gear and just flip one part in the opposite direction but you don’t have to disassemble the entire transmission you’re just removing a couple of pieces I can try and find the video that helped me out that made it really simple. I guess to your point though you do have to take the transmission out of the chassis and open it up and pull gears out. I guess it really depends on how much you use the dig feature and if you really want the rear wheel drive instead. I don’t use dig that much so for me it was worth it to sit down for a little bit and take the time to do it.
Those Black rims and 2.2 mud slingers look fantastic on the Gen 8, love the channel Gerry
They did for sure, but now they live on the mashigan!
Great vid! I bought a fms atlas bout a week or so ago threw ur link hope u got something out of it. Take care!
I appreciate it! Glad you liked the vid.
Element 1/12 and the new venture Single cab toyota pickup, and maybe one of the redcat mini offerings, the link ascwnt would look good in your collection
That's a great combination for sure!
@gerrysoldguyreview the pink ascent would look good next to the scout 1/18.
Everyone seems to be bringing up the pick one?😁
@@gerrysoldguyreview if I wasn't in Christmas present buying mode id buy the pink one
I have a few rigs. Trailfinder2 LWB Scottsdale, Redcat gen 8 V2 (purple) and 2 of the HG trucks. I have fun with all of them. They all have their strengths and weaknesses but I tend to like the ones that look and run like their 1:1 scale counterparts. Plus the larger scales are easier for me to see when I'm working on / modifying them
@@tracyscotdatemasch2773 all great choices! I to find it easier these days to work on the bigger ones!
