Axial Yeti Upgrade - PT 12 - The Final Upgrades!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 жов 2024
- Take a look at the last and final few upgrades that I have done to this Axial Yeti!. Some of my previous upgrades or enhancements to this truck, had to be changed. In the video I will explain why that was.
But the first thing I had to change was the steering servo. Unfortunately the Savox coreless servo that I originally had installed in the truck was drawing to much power. Also I discovered a leak in one of the rear stock shocks, so I decided to just go a head and upgrade them to the Axial Icon Shock. The last thing I had to change on this truck was removing the scale fuel tubing to be able to get better access to the inside of the truck to work on it. Again I explain everything in a little more detail in the video.
I also show all of you the Led lights all working with out any problems. I honestly don't think im going to have any problem seeing at night with those RC4WD LED light bars! :)
Want to know were I got my parts from? Check out the build series. Each video has a direct link to the part(s) that I discuses in each video.

this yeti is an inspiration! I love the look and the quality. I have to admit that I am going to copy about 80% of what you did here. everything you did is exactly what I would do. thanks for the series on this build!
+Brian Vaughan no problem! Enjoy it!
The yeti never caught my attention until I saw yours ...my yeti got here last night and im.bassing it off your build the color layout is exactly what I wanted but some different parts here and there but none the less great job man keep up the good work
Alex Estrada Thanks Alex! Greatly Appreciated! I took it out the other day for a quick little run to create the new "Trailer Video" that I have out and O..M..G its so much more fun to drive then it was stock....Haha
I saw the trailer video.cant wait for the next video... great camera work btw!!!
Thanks man! Always trying to improve my work.
Got a lot of upgrades for my Yeti watching your videos. Great 👍🏼 job on your information given!
Awesome! So glad you enjoyed it and has helped ya build your own!
You wanted it to look bad ass?
Mission accomplished
USArmyZ28 :) Thanks!
That is the coolest Yeti I'ff seen by far.
Martin Whitney Thanks Martin!
This is a very cool build. My Yeti kit will be here in two days, and I'd love to do some of these cool scale mods, especially the lighting, but I know that the first time I rolled it on the track and that light bar gets ripped off, I'd be pissed! To much work if you intend to drive it hard. All that scale detail will get trashed in the first couple of runs!
Wow that Yeti's looking good man, good job !!!!
RC Marty Thanks RC Marty!
You're welcome :)
Dude, Im so jealous! That's one awesome yeti
Very inspiring, though I am kinda late to the rock racer craze.
Nice looking yeti bud. I want one.
I'm waiting to get lipos and radio for my Yeti XL ...mean while lots of modification on my rids..hope to be done son..lol
Wow Matt awesome job man...can't wait to see video
Steven .Leelanau Thanks Steven! I cant wait either! lol
Wow very nice build buddy.
Ya, My wife thinks I'm crazy. Totally lost it. The home destroyer I call it. So much fun.
Hahaha! thats why i call this one home wrecker! haha
You gave me so many ideas to rebuild my Yeti !!!!
lawrence campbell Your welcome! Ill have even more coming soon! :)
Very nice bro she is beautiful you did a great job I bet the performance is even better thanks for sharing and keep the rubber side down take care bro ✌
Swwweeeet !! I Love it.My Yeti is looking good two.Carter fab body oanels and AMF Hood. I got the Voodoo U4 and Deuces Wild Foams.I Love it.
andrew richey Very nice man! I herd Voodoo Tires are amazing!
It's the best looking Yeti in the world imo! :) was an awesome build ;)
Me and my E-Maxx Haha Thank you very much man!
Best looking yeti on youtube!
Bad ass!!! Though I would have put the BEC in for the other servo....cheap and does the job awsome!!!
Oh FYI I've spend over $1700 and haven't even bought the max amp battery and Spekrum radio yet.
So...I've ordered up the vanquish steering upgrades for the yeti.. this got me thinking about the next couple upgrades I would want/need. That being said (money no object) which 2 other upgrades would be the best 2 other upgrades?
*not cosmetic stuff, actual performance stuff.
personally I'm thinking I'm going to upgrade the steering knuckles and caster blocks (lump together as one thing) then the trailing arms. but I'm not 100% where I should start on the upgrades. I'm building the kit, so it's easier to get all the upgrades before I start building.
Can we get a full list of the upgrades? I would like to build a similar machine.
so I noticed the Dunkin D's coffee cup and Anna last video that I watched of yours you said that you had over three feet of snow so I'm assuming you're from Maine correct? You seem like a genuinely nice kid nice to see and looks like you enjoy the hobby which is what it's all about. Cheers
trailer queen
I got the Savox SW-1210 SG No problems.Swwweeeet,
hey man i'm running a SAVOX SA-1231SG in my 380 and it's workin great. What was the exact servo you used?
another beauty build!1 Cheers!
Your Yeti turned out really nice. I'm working on my Yeti XL with a lot of modified stuff too. Hope you can chk out my video under Yeti XL flux capacitor installed.
Rocky winn Thanks buddy! and yes I will certainly check it out! The XL is definitely on my list to get.....Someday Hahaha
Matt sweet build just got my kit. Question did you upgrade the steering knuckles and c hubs.
Chris Doval . Thank you and yes I did to Hot Racing C Hubs and Kuckles
Why does it look like you haven't mounted the tires on the rims?
Wow that looks so good! Make me one please! LoL
Lol.. heavy, My Rc4wd Gelande 2 weighs in at 11.8lbs... it's ridiculous how heavy they can get.
I put a hole in the fake fuel cell to run the wire through and that's where i keep my battery for my lights
These videos are giving me some great ideas for my Yeti. Do you ever find yourself talking to your car or truck when you're working on it?
Haha yup! even more so when im tired and its giving me a hard time about something. lol
nice yeti
Thanks!
I love this yeti Man! Could you give us a list of every part you have installed or changed on this?
+RcCrawlerAu Haha I would be Typing for hours if i wrote everything up. However each video dose have a list of each upgraded part in the description. :)
+RC Overload Do you know your final dollar count? Did you up the shock oil weights for increased dampening with the increased weight? Any plan on replacing the front "web" that Hot Racing has a nice black aluminum?
use a modified barb fitting for your fuel line disconect
where can i get the body panels like that? carters sold out
+RC Hunter not sure who has them if carters dosnt have them as far as i know he was the inly one who had them....
axial should give you a mil the best promo ever
man you put in work : }
+Guideline Uk Hahaha That would be awesome!
What tires are on this bro?
I noticed my Yeti kit likes to endo alot when jumping. Are you having that problem?
G14 Not really. It has more weight now in the front then when it was stock. So that may be helping to keep the front end down a bit.
+G14 Kinda late but felt the need to correct this. Hrrmm, dirtbike world endo is the rear going over the front. Weight in the front would only make this worse.
Either run stupid soft springs/heavy oil in the back, to help eliminate the "Pop" or really stiff springs up front combined with heavy oil 60wt+. I use 80 up front 60 in the back. Alot is throttle as well, save some top end on throttle till your mid air and jam it, or a lil throttle up at the tip of the jump, the wheel forces will arch the vehicle back mid air with enough rpm.
Another note, just letting off throttle mid air will cause these cars to endo pretty bad(short wheel base? I dunno). Limit straps will keep to ass end down but you loose travel so, meh.
My surface with my wrexo is loose track/dirt/light rock/large jumps, 15-20mph. 3s 9 pounds total
Looks fantastic !!! I just added a Yeti to my collection. I bought it 3 days ago and have put over $600 into already. I did put in a High torque digital waterproof metal coreless steering servo with a Castle BEC( works great). You have had yours for a while. What upgrades do you feel are the most important to upgrade? I might have them already( or ordered) but I want to hear your opinion 🙂
this is the 10th or 8th scale?
where can i get that same body that you have for my yeti

2 speed???
Do you call it home wrecker because your wife hates you for spending all that money?
+mattster197 Pretty much! Haha
+RC Overload I purchased a Yeti and I have $1,244 in it total. It's still not constructed. This weekend is when I am going to build it and video the build. I got the replay prime x to video all sorts of stuff. I used every hard anodized axial part they made. I didn't replace the entire rear axle because the 60 is a nice rear end with the HD gears in it. And I didn't replace the trailing arms because of the alum reinforced sides included. I am not willing to cut the front end up so its not getting your other mod. I used RPM arms instead to give a bit more strength in that region. Hot racing c hubs and steering knuckles with the carbon fiber arms. ITS GONNA BE BEAST!
