How to install 1.0 Injora Beadlock Brass Wheels and Tires
Get the tricks I used to install the tires on the Injora Brass Beadlock Wheels. It was difficult until I figured out what to do. I also included running the rig on the latest track that I recently finished.

This set up is amazing! Great job!
Thanks! I think my first track was my best one. Much larger.
Finished product?
It works like this. I was going to spray paint a solid color but just started using it right away.
How are you talking to if you’re going to be on UA-cam you need a microphone so people can hear you
It is in the works. I plan on getting some better equipment.
How are you talking to your self if you’re going to get on UA-cam you need a microphone so we can hear you talk.
I hear you. Working on getting something.
Love that side grip. Thought it was lost!
I was surprised but hopeful.
Bro that lube made all the difference in the world. I put it on horizontal flat of the inner piece outer pieces and the rim on both sides of the middle piece. And horizontal of bead on tire .. not alot. I just put a little on Qtip and it went together like magic , no pushing the inner and outer rim pieces to get it to start screwing together, it just fell in place pretty much . Just a little kpl "knife pivot lube"
I will give it a try. Sounds like it worked really well. Glad you didn’t give up on it.
@@rcredrockUT it made it much easier
This one dude said use lubricant.. but idk if I want to try that
Not heard of that. I got mine without any. But it took me a bit to figure it out.
I have the same problem I guess I'll try this .. man I'm ready to just send the rims back
They are very nice rims. Keep at it and you’ll get it.
That's Merica!
Haha, yup!
I love to run your trac
Awesomeness!
Thanks, this track is now open to the public at RC Arena in Salt Lake City if you were close to there and wanted to try it.
That looks amazing so far! Love the idea of going vertical with levels, my table is more layed out and takes up some room. Can't wait to see it all detailed and finished!
Thanks Matt, there is a regular build video for that track. You can find it in my library. You could see the whole build from start to finish as well.
@@rcredrockUT Thanks! Will definitely be checking it out.
A box of lightweight drywall mud will cure all your problems! You can put it on thick with your hands to fill holes or you can thin it out with water and it will last a long time before it cures so you have plenty of time to work with it.
Good idea. I didn’t do it before because I know it can crack when it dries if too thick but maybe that can just be a detail feature
@@rcredrockUT that’s what I did to mine and it came out amazing and it only cracks if you put it on like 2 inches thick works perfect. You can just make little milkshakes and brush it on with the chip brush and thank you so much for posting your videos. it helped me out so much to build my red rock Course
Came across this video while brainstorming my own mini crawling course. Got to say this looks awesome! Subbing for sure
Thanks. I appreciate it! Hopefully helps you out with your build.
Oh heck yea!! Awesome brass wheels. Looks so good with that silver finish and has that awesome negative offset. One thing I like to do with the wheels is along that inner ring, add some sticky lead weights and make em even heavier. Got a set on the glad with the tire up to 86grams per wheel. Lowest widest place to put the weight. :) If you found these difficult to mount, DO NOT buy tires from BoomRacing, theeeee worst tires to mount unless you buy their wheel. They arent 1.0's but a bit smaller so they dont like going on 1.0 wheels. They dont tell u this either, sucks to waste money on a tire that is nearly impossible to mount up without ripping it. One tire u might like are the 64mm SwampKings from LGRPs, unreal awesome, so sticky and look amazing, super aggressive :) Also good run, seemed to handle that place like it nothing with that extra weight.
Great comments and advice as always DVF! I had a 1/10 with tons of weight in the wheels. I may try that in the future. If I get it to dialed everything will get to easy. Haha.
@@rcredrockUT That is the exact reason I keep a low modded C10 around. Its really light, about 320grams with its mods and really difficult to drive on the Carpet Mountain.
Nice video and great looking track.
Thanks 👍 glad you liked it.
Love what you're doing with this scale scenery build, I haven't seen many others that took an indoor rock crawling layout to this level. The chipping brush trick is brilliant! It really looks the part, but hot glue on top of your finished scenery base has the potential to end up ruined with a few hits from your rig since the only thing holding it in place is a small patch of glue. Taking a tip from model railroading, use superglue to put a finish nail, pin, or even a thin wooden dowel on the bottom of your cut down chipping brush. Wait for it to fully cure and then use wood glue or even Elmer's glue, and push it through your scenery base. If you use a wooden dowel, be sure to drill a small hole for a tight fit so you don't destroy the scenery around the "bush" when pushing it through your scenery base. This will give your "bush" a nice root that will make it much more durable. Cheers!
Awesome tip thank you! I will for sure give that a try when they start popping off.
Absolutely breathtaking work you do, I’ve crawled countless times on the course you made that’s currently at RC Arena and I’m glad Pablo told me about your channel, it’s been very satisfying to watch these update videos come out on this course. Just hope I get an opportunity to crawl on it one of these days lol, looking forward to the future that this channel holds 👍🏼
Wow, thanks man. Appreciate that so much. And super glad so many people are enjoying that track. I will get to some updates on that track in a while. I want to do some RC upgrades first.
This turned out very nice. Love the details with the sand and gravel. But from what driving you showed, isn't it a bit easy?
Some sections yes. There are some other sections and I have more rock I want to add to it that can change up if I get bored
Course turned out awesome!! Thanks for sharing the process throughout the build. Wish you were my neighbor! Lol
Haha thanks. Would be fun. Don’t have friends close by that do this.
Turned out awesome man! Nice build and run vid. Good thing that guy said to make it more difficult or it will get boring. That happens to lots of courses I see, just flat straight parts everywhere that dont push the rig at all. I couldnt imagine trying to run a rig on that, be bored after the first run. This course looks great!
The articulation section is tricky and the main hill climb too. Didn’t film that part as it was still wet.
@@rcredrockUT Awesome dude! The more difficult the track the more you want to conquer it. Easy tracks get boring very fast. This one looks like shes got some tough parts that will keep you coming back for more.
Awesome video!!
Thanks. Appreciate that.
Love your colors on this course, spot on. What products did you use?
When your plaster cloth is still wet you can rub all the holes in.
I try to do that, but sometimes there is not anything right behind it and that doesn’t work. But in the flats I do that. In my second track build I am using a method someone suggested which is using a chip brush and plaster of Paris. Works really well quick.
Looking great dude!!!!..... can't wait enough for a long vid...hehe...✌️✌️
Yes, I stopped posting update videos. Trying to get more done some more to see in end video.
Man, that is awesome!!
Thanks. Excited to get it done!
Nice build. The only thing I would change is making it a bit more challenging as it looks like fairly flat terrain which will get boring going up and down the ramps w/o any tricky or challenging spots. Can't wait to see it completed!
Yea. I hear you. The hill climb on the inner side is one. The pole bridge is another especially going around the turn. And for the most part you can’t just blow through the track. I didn’t get some video but will when I get back into town but the turns are off camber and perhaps a bit more challenging than you think. I had some friends over and the guy didn’t think you could climb the hill, I was able to show him that you could. Happy to make some changes to it though, what would you change in the flat areas?
@@rcredrockUT I prefer fairly challenging obstacles that sometimes require backing up and rethinking the line, kind of formulating a plan if you know what I mean. For this course, could have a few 1 to 2 inch stair type rocks and more elevation changes aside from the ramps. A really nice video with some good ideas is... "AC:RC My backyard micro crawler course". To each their own though, if you have fun with it, that's all that matters. Just from my experience, I went to easy on my first build and got bored and redid it. I would think if a 10' section of course can be done in under a few minutes, it may be a little to easy and not have the replay value.
@@VetteWay2Fast So based on your suggestions I added more of what you said. There are steps up and downs, you can not go straight through. I ran out of plaster cloth but just got more in so I will keep going with it. I do appreciate the feedback.
@@rcredrockUT Nice, look forward to seeing the changes!
Look'n great!!!! Thanks for the content on the builds.
Glad you like them! They are a bunch of extra work but happy to share. Excited to get to the details.
Looks great! Cant wait to see it in action!
Me too. Should get new batteries this week so I can test it out.
Very nice work dude and awesome update. That course sure turned out to be pretty amazing actually! Cant wait to see it finished.
Thanks a ton! Yes. This week should make good progress. I’m excited to check it out too and bummed by batteries aren’t working. New ones should be here this week.
@@rcredrockUT So with these lil lipo batteries, dont leave em plugged in and use the power button to turn it off as it will drain the battery lower then it should go and it wont charge up anymore. I use mine like if its plugged in its ready to rock, if it sits for a bit I unplug it. Also just letting it sit uses a lot more power then ud think, like if you are testing the lines on the track and have to adjust something, unplug it, its gonig to drain it down past that 3volts or w/e the chargers need to see it deem it worthy of charging. :) Ive gone thru about 6 batteries this way, just forget that Ive left em in there and boom, another 25bucks gone to the wind.
@@DurpVonFronz Yes, I think I am on my 5th battery. I need to pay closer attention to them. I hate buying batteries all the time.
I’m north of you in SLC so I understand your snow and cold comments. yes, I’d consider going to places that have decent crawler courses and pay a nominal amount for some playtime. However, I’ve inspired me to create my own realistic red rock course. When I was in Moab last month, I got a bunch of raw materials for it. Currently, I’m experimenting with different techniques and materials from trash, card board, foam, bottles, you name it. I loved the idea of plaster of Paris with sand for gritty texture then just painting it. It’ll be way faster than Mod Podge, sand sprinkling, repeat, repeat…. It looks great and works great for my Lion’s Back hill climb replica, but I am hoping my next project using your technique will save me a ton of time! Great vids. I’ve watched most of them several times.
Awesome. Well, in American Fork a guy who bought my big track did open an indoor crawler place if you wanted to go down and check it out. I’ll see if I can get the details for you.
Yes! Please do.@@rcredrockUT
Also, it looked like you are in St. George, is that right?
@@2blackfox1 No, north of SG by 40 mins in Cedar. Also, 8683 Sandy Pkwy, Sandy, UT 84070 is where my track resides.
Great job with the videos & and super great build. How big is the total area? It looks like it was built on a 4’x8’ sheet of plywood.
No, this base is much smaller. A friend got some new cabinets and they were shipped with these bases. So the track obviously is wider than the 2’ base. I am currently out of the country but when I get home I will put the measurements in the next video.
The first track was built on a 4x8 sheet of OSB plywood.
When is the next update vid on the course😊
I am traveling in New Zealand with my father and my youngest son right now. I should get back home around Dec 4. I will try to get an update done and up within a week or two.
@@rcredrockUT SWEEEEEET!!! Safe travels! Look forward to seeing the completed course.
@@TRIMGUY37 i should have a video posted Sunday. I’ve put in over 5 hours so lots of progress.
Thanks for the vids, thanks for sharing your journey of building courses. There was a shop in my area, but they closed down after I got into the hobby, sadly. Looked like they had 2 courses for 24's, and huge area for 1/10's and a full size indoor track for fast racers. Hopefully they'll open again.....going back to a previous vid, you said you wished you could listen to music..Since you have the TV and looked like UA-cam was on, just look for "Royalty Free Music" in the genre you like. You can freely play that....as for the plaster, using cold water will give a little longer working time, if using hot or warm it'll kick it off faster.....Again, Thanks for sharing your time....Crawler On Dude!!!!
Thanks so much! I’ll check for the royalty free YT. I’ll try the cold water trick on the plaster. I found another material I want to try called masonry plaster. When I find that I’ll give that a try too.
😮🤯💯👍
Ha, thank you 🙏
I love it
Thanks, glad you like it!
Cool
Glad you like it!
Wow this is the most realistic course I have seen! Love the red rocks and the moon 😯
Thanks. Appreciate that so much. Helps motivate me to finish the next track.
This course looks amazing!
Thanks! Was fun to run it.
Awesome
Thanks 🙏
great job
Thanks, appreciate that. Helps keep me going.
Ok, heres an idea I wanna do in the future, probably in a few months time or next summer. Get some cheap blankets like fleece or old towels and dip em in a concrete mix. Then drape em over some crumpled up baking sheets on a wooden frame, even pallets or something and make a sweet next level carpet mountain. That way its amazingly strong, maybe even use the carpet mountain as a mold or w/e. Put down some thin plastic and drape it over and let it dry in decent sized sections so anyone can have the same track as me :)
That would be interesting. You do the carpet mtns already right? Boy, dipping carpet in concrete is gonna be so heavy! Maybe make sure it is on a rolling platform.
@@rcredrockUT Ive seen some guys make art from it., like a big chair, didnt look to heavy as it can only soak up so much, more so if its relatively thin material. And you dont need to make it as thick mix as you would for making a sidewalk or something like that. Kinda like what youve done here with the plaster. Thin and movable, that way you can work with it and get the shapes you need before it sets up and become permanent stuff. :)
@@DurpVonFronz what I love about doing stuff like this is just trying things. That’s what I’ve done. I’ve had some stuff not work. And other stuff does work. Let us know how it turns out.
Heck yea man!! Would be awesome to mix in some sand or chicken grit(crushed granite) to give it that real look and amazing traction.
Something like that is coming after paint. Check out the other finished track build.
@@rcredrockUT Oh I have, its a deadly track!! I think having the stone mixed in before hand would add depth and make it more rock like, more so in valleys and for climbing certain areas. Might even make it more aesthetic. I think the crushed granite would be the kewlest looking : P
@@DurpVonFronz when you say crushed granite is that the same thing as decomposed granite?
@@rcredrockUT Like chicken grit style, nice and small stuff. Its around the size of pepper corns. Get it a nearly any farm supply store.
Fun series of videos and a very unique course you've built! Sorry if I missed it, but what's the total size of the build? Is it based on a full 4'x8' sheet of OSB?
Exactly. 4’x8’ osb with some overhang. At one end that part that goes up and a few inches on the front from the styrofoam. I am currently building another one on a smaller footprint. Should have a new video out on Sunday.
@@rcredrockUT Oh never mind, I see the video is already out. I thought you meant this coming Sunday haha. Thanks
Nice crawling. I got a front axle and a servo inverter and modded my scx24 deadbolt to 4WS. The inverter means the rear wheels always steer opposite the front, but meant I kept the stock receiver/ESC. Really nice on my first tiny track, created with expanding foam, at only 2x3 feet approx.
Very cool. I would be interested in doing that to my cayman.
What RC is that?
Cen f250
Thank you does it run really good?
Amazing work my friend. Liked and subbed. 👍👍👏👏
Thanks. Helps keep me motivated to build more tracks!
Try cheesecloth and drywall mud (the powdered type)
Sounds like a good idea. Some projects I’ve done with drywall mud has cracked. But I’ve not tried the powdered type. I’ll try it next track. Thanks for the suggestion.
@rcredrockUT the hot mud is much better and you can get 5 to 90 minute work times. I like to mix in concrete dye so chips don't show.
@@joshheitzenroder365 I definitely need to try that. Finishing up with a new method for underside but it was time consuming and a lot of work.
Just one obstacle super cool 👍👍😎
Yes. Was just trying to feature the give away track.
Super cool courses, it is a piece of art for sure. Outstanding work, watching now
Thanks more to come.
I would absolutely spend the $ at a place like that
Ok cool. Good to know! Thanks for watching!
BTW a guy bought my first course and did open a shop in the Salt Lake City area. People love the course.
