Thank you so much for such an enthusiastic and honest review! Appreciate all the feedback and everything is spot on! These are resin printed in Formlabs Tough 2000 resin (that's why the price is so high). The resin and consumable tray is very expensive ($200 for resin/liter + $150/tray) so not a whole lot there I can do to lower the price, but I'm trying! The benefit though is that these parts are extremely durable! I've only had a handful of people break some of my designs and I've sold 1000+ to date. As always I love helping the customer so if you have a problem just reach out!
Hot damn! Was looking to see if i could come up with something for the Phoenix. His idea is much better than iI came up with. Ordered. Thanks for ALL your reviews!!
Got them in the mail yesterday and just put them in. They were an easy install and they work awesome. Until I find a non-jeep body for my scx10iii, these are gonna save me a ton of fumbling with little clips with my big fingers! Maybe they aren't cheap, but they aren't really all that expensive either, and in my opinion, absolutely worth every cent!
It's funny that you just posted this. I ordered a set a couple days ago for an SCX10iii, and they just shipped today. I am really looking forward to using them. While I really like that the body clips are out of sight and make the body look better, they are just a pain to get to with my big hands and fingers. I really Love the design of this fastening system.
Interestingly enough, I ran across these the night before this video was published while browsing Etsy for scale accessories. Just saw the ad for the Phoenix, thought the idea looked cool, but didn't investigate further since I don't own a Phoenix. Then I saw your video and realized he also made them for the Early Bronco, which just happens to be what I'm currently building. Ordered a set last night. And you're right. They are PRICEY for a couple of pieces of printed plastic! But, he has his development time to recoup, and a limited time before all the copy cats start putting them all over eBay, Esty, etc. for $5. Sad, but a reality with 3D printing these days. Debated it but decided, screw it, I'll pay the piper, reward the guy that came up with a great idea and product and have them in hand in a few days.👍
Right on Michael. Yeah, i hope the video helped you make a decision. A lot of money for a brand/company we haven't heard of so it's useful to see it in action from another viewpoint.
I love Fine Lazer Design. I quite a few set up from them. The first set I picked up was for my Scx6 Jeep,, and for a bunch of my Scx24s. They work great.👍👍👍
I thought I was the only R/C crazed person messing with crawlers in the middle of the night 😄 I ordered an Atlas last month and it showed up about a week ago and I finally got some time off. It's an awesome little thing for what it is. I think it needs a A frame hoist and a winch on the back.
I have the trx4 2021 bronco love the Clippless system but something can be said about the weight.. I think this guy’s ideas are innovative and are going to change the world of RC.
Glad to see you still 'testing' on the the park's waterfall...tho, we haven't seen the 'hill climb' in quite some time. Having moved to Vegas, I miss that park, as well as Calabazas Park (outstanding place for the X-MAXX & Sledge...tho, Razor RC might disagree on the "Sledge at Calabazas" point...lol). That waterfall is where I did some of the testing for the C3 rig I took to Scale Nationals 2021. I was looking over the selection of clipless systems from Fine Laser Designs...and, for the greatest part, I'm impressed. Nice job in designing all he offers. However, there were two notable omissions in his offerings. He has a clipless system for the VS4-10 Phoenix for those using the body as included (ie. the cab, rear cage, and rear side panels)...but, he doesn't have anything for those running only the cab (the way may have built theirs). Also, while he has clipless designs for the majority of mini/micro crawlers, the most popular - the SCX24 - is missing from his offerings. While I can, potentially, understand not having an offering for a cab-only VS4-10 Phoenix, I am completely baffled why there isn't anything for the SCX24. What gives? 🤙🏼 EDIT: Correction on the SCX24...upon re-examination, I did find the SCX24 system. At the same time, something I noticed it's that, each time I've checked the page (3x, so far), the items are listed in a different order.
@@RCReviewChannel Oh, I know you live close to the park...my former next door neighbor has even run his crawlers with you. As for leaving, it wasn't entirely "by choice". My mom passed away a little over a year ago, and my step-dad needed help with things around the house (there were things that each did that the other couldn't, and things my mom could only do weren't getting taken care of)...plus, it finally gave me an "out" to my failed marriage (I won't get into that here). I am hoping to be back in the Bay Area sometime this year, and in following years. The executive service company I used to work for will bring me back from time-to-time to drive the busses for large events (ie. Google I/O, other Google events, The Quail (in Carmel), the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, etc). Plus, now working as a tour bus driver, I know there are some Vegas tour groups heading to/through SF...so, if I'm assigned to any of those, that would also bring me back (temporarily, obviously). Under either of those circumstances, chances are, I would bring at least one RC (if one of those trips happens sometime soon, it'll be the AK-917 (yes, I have one, as well...already installed the first upgrade - all-aluminum shocks) with me...plus, maybe, the DJI Mini 2 drone for aerial filming for my channel.
Great option part,. But I wonder why magnets are so ignored? To me is the best way and safe for the body that in case it flips away without damages. The only thing is that is difficult to glue on the body but... studying the matter.... Ciao
I got the quick release for my AX 24 and the front one broke right of way I haven’t even been outside with it yet, Just went to open the body up and a little tad snapped
Hey, I’ve seen you comment on a few videos now, I’d love to send you an updated version if you’re still having issues. Please reach out to me and I’ll get you taken care of!
Shouldn't be brittle at all! These aren't your "normal" 3D prints as these are resin printed in Formlabs Tough 2000 resin. It is some really strong stuff! A lot closer to an injection molded part and even better in some ways.
Would love a set of these for my jeep, but postage from US to UK is too high, by the time I pay for the item with tax and delivery, it’s £60…. If he would release the STL files that would be great, but I understand about copyrights so fair deal to the guy.
I like the idea but 43€ for the TRX4 Defender one, plus 20€ shipping to Europe... Too expensive, sadly. He could consider selling the stl files on something like cults3d for people that are not in the US.

I just got some for my 79 bronco trx4 love them so nice not to fight with those dump pins let alone try to find them . Kevin is awesome .

Love these body clips on my VS4-10! I hated the pins! Fine Laser Designs knocked it out of the park with these.
Upside down pins are appearance mods and usability headaches.

I got mine from Kevin yesterday and I’m super excited to install them on my early bronco!
So good to hear.
I have both the Phoenix and Early Bronco mounts. Worth every penny.
These appear to be an outstanding product. I think they will sell out very quickly.
Yeah, very well done and it makes the hobby more fun.
Sweet!
Dude needs to work with Kyosho. They have such beautiful bodies, but they're "destroyed" by body clips.
I know, I know, I know this much is TRUE!
I have 2 of the early broncos will have to check this out. Love the bronco love to see more of it.
I love Fine Lazer Design. I quite a few set up from them. The first set I picked up was for my Scx6 Jeep,, and for a bunch of my Scx24s. They work great.👍👍👍

That place is soo hammered with rain and now leaves and pollen. I will bring a blower for sure next time.
Oh man, I live right by Calabazas. Can't believe you left us!!!!

Very nice design 👌 i like how it makes it easier
Great option part,. But I wonder why magnets are so ignored? To me is the best way and safe for the body that in case it flips away without damages. The only thing is that is difficult to glue on the body but... studying the matter.... Ciao
Great looking truck
Niiice... Always jealous of your crawling spots
Clipless bodies... perfect.
hah, thanks for this. just bought my Vanquish phoenix and was hoping to make it clip-less.
9:08 What body and chassis is that grey jeep crawling? That looks really scale. It's not the proline body, is it? It's so nice!
Injora. He has a video on it. It's on a VS4-10 Phoenix chassis.
Really valuable!!
It's a compelling solution to a classic problem.
Does he make them for the redcat’s by chance, I got the marksman and the 59 impala I love them but the body clips.
I got the quick release for my AX 24 and the front one broke right of way I haven’t even been outside with it yet, Just went to open the body up and a little tad snapped
Hey, I’ve seen you comment on a few videos now, I’d love to send you an updated version if you’re still having issues. Please reach out to me and I’ll get you taken care of!
Is there a way to contact them?
I would love a clippers mount for my cross at4 …
Are the clips brittle? I wonder how they will hold up over time. A lot of 3d printed stuff that I’ve used. Ends up cracking.
Shouldn't be brittle at all! These aren't your "normal" 3D prints as these are resin printed in Formlabs Tough 2000 resin. It is some really strong stuff! A lot closer to an injection molded part and even better in some ways.
NICE 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
Any for the arrmas six line up
I like it but I want to have my little 3S packs up in front of the 5.0 Coyote. 👍🏻
Since I have a printer myself I never really buy 3D printed pieces from anyone else. But I do buy a lot of .stl files
So, he used the FMS method.
It's easy to live with .
be awesome if he could make something for the rc4wd tf2 4runner.....
Please introduce custom willys ^^ I have a custom-made vehicle. Of course, it's made by a master, but it's better than the existing RTR product ^^
Are you from china?
*Traxxas enters chat*
whuuut? :)

Let's see how long before China copies the design. I got mine's copied.
