Thanks a lot for the love and support. ❤❤❤❤
Thanks a ton for making cool things.
Thanks for supporting events in Colorado!! Theshopminirc really does alot for the community here locally.
@@TrokaRC thanks for the kind words!
thanks, Kenny for letting us non members get a piece of the action i was thinking u might make us wait a week but no my good friend u come through with another great awesome review well done love your work thankyou... also ken i couldn't wait being a landrover nut so i searched for more info and came across another really nice fella by the name of Mat from 2fm rc country dude with some really great knowledge also ken on the mini,s ,,, so now i have 2 awesome channels to watch yours and his... thanks again ken for your awesome intell and have a great day... I'll be buying all 4 soon as they hit Aussie shelves...
100%. And yes, matt is awesome. I’ve met him multiple times in person and we talk all the time. ;)
Always love this channel, DETAILS!!!! To the very last screw ❤
Thanks a ton for watchin!!!
Camels Travel Anywhere! Amazing review/content as always. Can't wait to get ours and get them on our CrawlerTrax.
Thanks a bunch good sir!!!
Yeah there for the rises fella
;)
Awesome job dude! Best and most informative video on these guys so far! This is what made me buy 2 @FMS ! Keep being thorough with your vids. Some of us old dudes have a better attention span for more than the typical reviews for 'short attention span theatre'. 😜 So no need to apologize for it being a longer vid. It really helps make purchasing decision easier!
Thanks! Will do! I want to be sure people are able to reference the videos when they need to fix something as well!
I’d *love* to see the D90 or D110 with wheels from the Disco or Range Rover. The bigger wheels on the Defender make it look far less scale and more monster truck…
We’d likely just upgrade the wheels and tires all together.
The transmission including the shift servo is amazing
Definitely. Very cool little setup.
@@TheShopMiniRC I can't wait for NRC to begin putting these components on their chassis
@@caseys_cozy_garage hell yah!!
I'll be flipping that transmission Ken. Great vid. Bought 1 immediately
Thanks for watching my dude. I’ll have to try to see what it takes to flip the trans around. Maybe a future video.
That was an epic video! I hope someone 3D prints a skid that makes the transmission and motor a little higher for clearance and link mounting position. Not looking forward to taking those cvds apart to install an OD, maybe better to get some UD in the rear.. Hmmm maybe a chassis that raises the skid??..
That would be cool!
Awesome Kenny, I just ordered today, Friday, June 28 the defender 110, love the video now I know what to expect if I have to take mine apart. As they say, just don’t break the expensive parts.😁😁
Glad I could help
Sure hope they are water proof our indoor course is going to throw everything at these awesome rigs
Knowing Fms Adam, I don't think you'll have to worry about it. I've never heard of any problems
They are likely going to be ok, that being said, wet at your own risk! Lol
some of them are amazing too
Indeed!!!
Yeah, that’s what I do with my bushings knuckle bushings a little bit of grease to hold them in. I do the same with the little drive pin for your hex. I hate when you take the hex off and the pins fall out.
Facts!
Thanks for the great info Ken.
Can't wait to get them.
You bet! You’re gonna love em!!!
I just ordered all 4 today.
You are gonna love em!!
Thanks for the excellent review made it easy to decide which one to get😊
Glad it was helpful!
Great size comparison. I love Kyoshos. But I think they are considered a truer 1/28 scale. They the best scale models by far and as you suggest, are excellent performers for their size.. These Land Rovers are fun - I’d love to see smaller tires on the Defenders. My only gripe is the lack of rear hangover in the Disco and the wheel wells are cut too high on the Range Rover. That being said, I’d get a Rangie.
Totally agree
Are those .7 wheels?
@@estebandelrio2861 slightly bigger.
Best review I found. Thank you Sir! 👍👍👍
I appreciate that! Thanks a bunch for watching!!
Thank you for the review.
Overall it's a bittersweet performance by FMS.
Sweet bodies... that's about it.
I was so so excited about this transmission, but they have to be used with the axles because of the reversed drive shaft direction, and... the axles suck.
Someday i will buy one of these bodies when they become available.
Totally bummed.
It’s definitely a trade off. The trucks perform fantastic. Just don’t break a cvd, it’s gonna take some time to fix. Easy, but was unexpected.
@@TheShopMiniRCKen, thank you for the fishing line crimp idea, I've already used it on shocks, AND also on mounting a Cedar on a Mini Komodo motor mount.
The problem with the Cedar motor mount is that it has the motor in a bad spot, it touches the links.. can't drop down all the way.
The Mini Komodo centers it, and raises it up a bit, this allows the whole rig to be dropped down.
There are others that do it, but that red Furitek mount looks great!
I used 12mm bolts, and a 2mm x 2mm id fishing crimp on the trans spur shaft to hold the spur out to contact the pinion.
Now the rig sits at the ideal straight across link ride height without bottoming out the shocks, and still has full spring available.
Perfect!
You rock!
I wouldn't have come up with the idea without your help!
@@MrsRabbit8 that’s awesome!!! Great use!!!
great videos 👍👍👍👍
I will follow you
Thanks a ton and thanks for the follow!!
@@TheShopMiniRC ok bro 🥰🥰
I won one of those at the WERcRock event!!
You did?!?!? They weren’t even out yet. How did they have em? Also congrats!!!
@@TheShopMiniRC FMS sponsored the event.
@@ColoradoAdventureClub ahhh that’s awesome!!!!
Awesome breakdown! Is the motor pinion gear the same as the other fcx18/24s? I have a spare micro Komodo I’d love to throw in one if they match up!
I haven’t tested but I believe it’s the same.
I wish someone would do thr 110 as a 2 door
I mean… you have the D90. lol. Almost.
Just received the discovery and d110, bought them after watching your video. They are awsome! One question, do you think a 900mah lipo with 30C 7.4v will work?
Any 2s (7.4) battery will work so long as it has the correct connector (or you change the plug ends or get an adapter), and it actually physically fits.
The MAH of a battery is just the “gas tank size”. It’s how much run time you can get. You could put a 2000mah battery on the truck and drive around (not well as the battery is HUGE, but it would work)
900 is pretty big but you could make it work. Just know that the bigger the battery, the more weight up high and the worse your truck will perform.
@@TheShopMiniRC Thanks! 👍
Do you know if the ESC that comes with has lipo cutoff?
Most of the older FMS/flysky combos have a low voltage cutoff, id assume these do too. Seems off if they removed that feature.
Could you flip the transmission?
I am sure you could do long as there is room for the motor. You will likely have to move some trays around. Maybe a future video.
It's FMS Though. They sent me a non working ESC/receiver/radio combo and insisted that I was lying about it and refused to make it right. On Fathers day they offered a Atlas 6x6 1/18 if I bought a 1/10 Atlas 4x4. When the package was one town away they say they refunded the 6x6 and it would not arrive. They refunded 1/2 the cost to buy a 6x6 ($60 and the 6x6 costed $111 at the time. They are thieves and fraudsters and should not be allowed to do business in America.
Sorry you had a bad experience. This is the first if ever heard that.
@@TheShopMiniRC Fake news...
Spectacular job in digging into them. While other influencers say what great these are and then u buy one and notice that about the axle and u don't get what u expected
As far as price... We're conditioned now to think 99 is cheap. Don't kid yourself but they still make a lot of money and it's still overpriced for us and there isn't much competition between brands on prices with diff of like $20 which is nothing
We just want to be sure to show what we can and help people understand what they are getting.
These trucks are damn good for the price.
@@TheShopMiniRC I hope you never change. digging in really gives viewers a much better look at pro's and con's for them to make their own conclusions on if its worth their money. I dunno anyone else on yt doing that. Thank you for taking so much time in your vids as I can't say enough good things.
@@AnyAssumptionBanter thanks for all the support!!
camel trophy what a let down went to my bank today and noticed that it was credited 440$ i thought who has given me this money only to find out its from my hobbyshop for a pre order, O no my landys whats happened on the phone straight away only to find out that they have been band in Australia because of the camel trophy logo wicth reminds them of the old camel🐪smoke brand can u believe this bs.. devastated land rover fanatic .. what is the world coming to.. maybe be able to order from usa and pay the 80$ shipping fee 220 truck 300$ for Aussie's spewing
Omg!!!?? That’s such a pain…. I’m sorry that happened. Maybe try ordering online.
Your microphone is still clipping like crazy. So sad, the bad sound makes it hard to watch. Maybe choose an auto-setting, or get someone to help you with it. Great content otherwise.
I didn't have a problem but then, I am not an audiophile
We will try to adjust it for the next one. ;)
