The more I watch this channel the more I don't understand why you don't have 10 times the subscribers.
I think there’s a couple related aspects. Patience and the mentality of good enough, or better.
If you like crawling, have patience and need that teensie bit better. Probably the greatest channel ever
I wonder the exact same thing. Honestly you can’t beat the honesty and information he gives. I literally wait every day for a new video to come out. Keep doing what you do crawlercanyon
Nice paint job on the new Vanquish body. Looks good. I have that same hilo chassis with trx4 axles and Element trans and dravtech shocks. I cut that last drop off the chassis rails at the very back too 😂I have the ecto body on mine
That body… I just… I just wanna say, it’s perfect 🤌🤌 hats off to the artýst 🙌
First time I've seen a truck twerkin...ya made my day
Those TRX4 magnets are SO good. I've taken to using magnets and velcro in every build, even if i have to design and 3d print brackets. I also found on my latest build that doing 2 strips of velcro at a 90 degree angle--some on the sides of the body, some on the back and front, really overdoes it in a good way. It's genuinely tricky to get the body off, which is great IMO.
I love that truck. I got to say u are very lucky man. Great video as all way
Just from the thumbnail that thing looks so amazing
You keep knocking it out of the park! Those wheels look goood! It's hard to tell without driving it but I think you hit on it little more length might do the trick. As always thanks.
Heavier oil in the rear shocks to slow the flip and give you a chance to see it and catch it ,this shouldn't compromise your funky rear end characteristics you like from your link position rear roll centre ,just a guess please prove me wrong ❤ great vid
Heavier oil in the shocks is a super easy one to test, so it's definitely going on the list.
The rig looks and performs well. I wouldn’t blame you for making it a bit longer each way. In my opinion it’s amazing 🤩 😎😎😎
Susan....35 RPM I think. I might have to send in a hand held tach to the Canyon. LoL.
I’ve dealt with this suspension issue in the past. It comes from the rear shocks being laid down so far. I really enjoy having my shocks laid down, but came to find out that too far does actually exist. The symptoms show up most in extreme, vertical climbs and acts like some extreme torque twist. It’s not the back left shock compressing it’s that they’re not working together to keep it from twisting. If you try an experiment with some shot keys and stand them up a little bit closer to a 45° angle I think you’ll be surprised.
That is such a beautiful truck!
The rig looks fantastic and drives really well, but it almost looks like the shocks control the chassis rather than the chassis controlling the shocks. This might be the time to use deez shock bands or using the elastic band trick, just to tame down and control their movement a little more
Really really really really really really good on side Hill
I have played around with shock angles therefore I have experience. When they lean forward like yours are, the rear end does weird Twitchy things in funky places. Stiffening the Springs helps but doesn't eliminate it. Simply increasing the angle of the shock to approximately 55 degrees has helped eliminate this for me. I hope that maybe this helps in some way.
Awesome rig! I still think a link riser in the rear would be a good thing.
What a great body! it was made even better with those turbines wheels.
For me the issue in the rear doesnt look like it comes from the shocks, but from the geometry of the rear links, i would personally mount the upper links lower on the chassis
The 2Low gearbox is what's stopping that from happening.
Cheers canyon man👍Always interesting to see what you're working on
That break over at 🎉40.49 was gaptacular on those sticky J concepts,no your not over thinking the squat🤨
I am 💯in love with that body and build. Goood lord 😎😎😎💯💯💯💯💯🤩🤩
On time every time!
Chrome donuts lol, love it.
why alu over stainless for sliders? Just angle the trans...iCan you angle the trans, or would the driveshaft hit the motor? When it comes to high O.D., I seem to recall some peeps saying it doesn't really help when traction is limited. So maybe being on your surface doesn't provide enough grip to pull without the hop...??? Another great vid!
12.5 wheelbase with less articulation in the rear. Just sayin?... Great video sir. Don't go too long in the front. The belly will quickly become an issue.
Another awesome one but thank you I was wondering the same exact thing I got one chassis that does that exact same thing and I tell you it kind of feels stiff all the way around right I don't know what it is I can't figure it out but it also has a forward-mounted transmission and I just I've had trouble with it from day one
22:25 That 30% UD makes a tire look like the Junk drift tires that you spin at max speed 🤣, and the rear bounce is so funny, please dont "fix" it
Maybe the roll over issue is because of the relationship between length and width? It didnt seem to roll over as much in the landmines (which werent as wide)
It takes all the drive and putting it all just on one trie with they way the back in
If you put Phoenix portal gears in the back of the VRD it will have 21% od.
Try fabricobbling a upper link riser for the axle or stand the shocks up a bit.
There's room under the truck bed (or at least appears to be) so I think shock keys will be the first test.
I would definitely like to see the pins against the megalithic
Meus makes a bunch of brass for those axles. Just an FYI. And it fits regular f10s as you would assume
I put the Vrd metal front portal cover on the meus axle and it bolted right up. Same for the gears.
@@jjvizmsportal ? Or ring and pinion?
Band the front down.
Freaking Awsome setup.
If front was held down some the rear anti squat issue might not be an issue.
Ordered some
Blue inserts.
Can you use what you were saying about the axles around 27minutes. Flip both diffs, rotate the motor the opposite direction and see if twisting the opposite way reduces the issue
Meus does make brass for those axles, the only problem is they are not on prime yet. To outfit the axles with brass front/rear portal covers and diff covers you would be looking at $70.
I've had them in my list on Amazon so I can keep checking on them until they go Prime. I need like... five sets of fronts. And four diff covers.
@@CrawlerCanyon AH I see I misunderstood then. I need one set of fronts and diff covers so I've also been watching them.
just another thought - MONSTER TRUCKS! have you seen someof the angles those trucks put multiple shocks!!! nowthose are very similar towhat your trying to do.control massive moving weights (tires rims etc,) yours is just nearly level, like a motorcycle or snowmobiles ! and some of the monster trucks rear axles ihave seen long ass 45 degree shocs mounted on them to control the heavy weights of wheels and axels from moving too much on hard landings .monster trucks also have massive solid framing to hold the axels in one place. similar to the rigdness of the frames i see on some rc vehicles. with those plastic bars inside the body being exchanged for metal! to stop flex! (stop the axels from moving.)
What did you use as shims for the inserts? Cut down foams?
I cut donuts out of the fridge liner-- by tracing the shape on there with one of those rock-hard foams and poorly cutting it out with scissors. I still have those foam "shims" that I cut out a while back, but thought they'd be too firm.
CV grease is supposed to eat the plastics ,have you ever had a problem ?
The only reason I think people might think that is because the grease is petroleum based and not lithium based. I think it works better because it's got more moly in it than any type of bearing grease-- and as we're using it pretty much exclusively on gears, the more moly the better. I can't see any issue with it and plastic without heat-- and we don't really make heat. At least not any kind of temps that grease would care about.
@@CrawlerCanyon heat lol yeah unless it's my LCC red hot fun 🤣#worms
ok ,I'm interested in why your locked into the rear suspantion. ( i havenot owned an RC like these.iunderstand the "lay down"of the shock statement because i owned a 4x4 1978 chevy stepside truck) ...what i dont understand is your confusion about the the way the rear end works.... understandable normal UPRIGHT shocks go up and down their made for it! but these laid down shocksseemto be better at keeping the truck as you said locked down. if you want to experiment try laying down some other trucks rear shocks! and see what changes!
imean motorcycles and snowmobiles use the laid down shock for the rear suspention almost exclusively! like vehicles! you state that vehicle is light - so why souldit not be sprung like a motorcycle or sled????
jeffrey rayborn wausau,wisconsin. ?????
Can’t ever remember. When rear shocks are laid down you need stiffer springs? Think that’s right
Usually, yes. This is an instance where the shocks are laid down more than I want them to be, but we'll get there.
is this a brazin rc hilow chassis?
To my knowledge it is, yes. It's been cut down a bit.
Its twerking 🤪 🤣 😂
Do links count as sprung or unsprung weight?
theoretically 1/2, but actually lil more then.
Have you tried modifying your inner rings yet?
LIGHTWEIGHT is the way. No pooch, landmines deepwoods all too firm for this guy. losing rear control under compression as shocks flatline, try mounting lower shock with the lower link hole, and/or try 80s in rear to stand up rear shocks. on sidehill running backwards was the OD, rears are a anchor fronts just torqued over lost the rear control of the chassis with it. deepwoods just not performing last few times out. 2.1 to 2.8 is 133%. Change of OD completely better lower! megas have pooch, too wide wide lol. Lightweight is helping on side hilling. Getting near if not full extension on front shocks on climbs, short springs, rate down. it is not lack of weight flipping, more lack of rear control, she needs no weight at 58/42 bias. IF simply changing to longer rod ends, yes closer to 313. GREAT looking and working rig once fully tuned, and light :)
Jconcepts website claims that the Megalithic tread is not specific or directional.
Somebody needs to tell them that you can't put triangle-shaped lugs on there and then say, "they're non-directional." They might not behave super directionally, but they definitely look just a wee bit directional.
i am a novice and built a random course at what i think is a CDOT material dump .
You’re such a toy truck fiend!! I’m sure!!
