most important mod imo are rims and tyres. i got beadlock rims with messing rings in the front wheels for weight and tyres with diameter 140mm and width of 40mm. cost about CHF 70 and turns that crawler into thing outcrawling most heavily modded scalers for 1/4th the price
Great vid very capable rc, Did you continue to use lipo as i wasnt sure if it would cut off or run lipo to flat. Just bought a ravine so making my way through some of your mods👍👍👍
thanks bud, yes it's surprisingly good especially at the price, the best way to make it lots better is just changing the tyres. I've not changed anything else as such it's all still running stock . it does cut out but I've only ever managed to run it flat once.. even the stock battery lasts around an hour which to be fair is what I run it on most of the time. they are great trucks, hope you enjoy it 😃👍
they are pretty capable trucks to be fair, mine is still stock apart from tyres, changed them and made it lots better than it already was. but yea definitely agree the mud didn't help 🤣👍
What battery in the Ravine? I heard a guy put a 2s Lipo 50c in and the esc smoked right away. I'm gonna try a 35c 2s in mine when it arrived and hope for the best!
yes I heard that so was a bit scared to try it , I use a 2s 2500mah 25c , they are actually drone batteries so they are nice and small but last hours. just for info the stock battery lasts around an hour :)
4.58 Marc you needed the invisible hand of god 😂 still fair play to the Ravine against the big boys David and Goliath 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻was that a remote control man on a mountain bike lol😂😂😂😂😂out of control owe its a Phil,lol😂🤣😂🤣 great video my friend stay safe and well,Dave in Cornwall 🤠🏄🏻♂️🤠
😀 oh yea should have, it got up there with the battery change which I was very happy about 😀 🤣🤣 yes rc Phil 👍 very happy with the results from this test 👍😀🐿
I was put off buying this ravine due to its price but they are good and this being stock i was well happy with it :) done a few bits since this to the tyres and they are much better 😀👍
thanks mate, cant go wrong with the ravine I don't think, I have been working on it to make it better since but was happy with it that day , cheers bud 😀👍🐿
You're not the greatest driver of the ravine you did it once just stepped back about two more feet and have a running start on that dirt portion of Hill you would have made it up...

Thanks alot for info👍
Ravine definitely impressed me. Mightve even made the last challenge if the tires weren't caked with mud

2.2 deep woods are amazing on the ravine
oh yes I should imagine they would work well :) she did ok for stock though. cheers 👍

I have a wraith-Capra and a ravine and the ravine for £95 is just amazing , I’m looking for tyres with more grip and it will then hold its own
I was put off buying this ravine due to its price but they are good and this being stock i was well happy with it :) done a few bits since this to the tyres and they are much better 😀👍
Awesome job mate and that revine did ace
thanks mate, cant go wrong with the ravine I don't think, I have been working on it to make it better since but was happy with it that day , cheers bud 😀👍🐿
I love it plz do more ftx ravine videos
thanks, there's a few on the channel atm but there will be more to come , cheers 👍
The new tyres that I have on my Ravine are very similar in tread pattern to those tyres on the TRX-4.
they looked a good tyre David and on the ravine I bet they are amazing 😀👍🐿
Very nice 👍 looks like it's a decent rig for the money
thanks, yes I'm sure the price actually puts people off, I know it did me for a while 😀👍
Very nice 👍
thanks mate, was a good result for this truck 👍😀
Yessss lad
