    Ken, love mini rc. Always look to you for honest/thorough reviews and especially like that you don’t go “over the top” on upgrades advice!! We’re all breaking the RC bank out here. What would you recommend for an upgraded brushed motor that would fit the Lexus? I put a fair amount of brass on and maybe need motor with a bit more power?? I’ve also added the TORQ MLS 1022 you suggested. Thank you sir!

      I appreciate that! I am always partial to the Furitek stuff and I think you can find the 2s starter kit for pretty cheap right now. If not, another easy to use system with room to grow is the Hobbywing mini 24 setup.

    Been buying crawlers for a good bit but I just got one of these and it’s my very first SCX24. Not looking to change a lot, but some mild upgrades, wanna keep this cool little bugger a scaler.

    • @TheShopMiniRC

      You can do a lot with this little truck, it has the potential to be a great scaler!

    Going south on 470 and approaching bandimere speedway was always cool.

    Love my v2 "blue label" electronics waaay smoother and not as loud as the other. You can control the lights remotely ,and have additional features like a tow truck /ride height adjustment , at the same time !

    • @TheShopMiniRC

      The v2 is good if you never want to go brushless. ;)

    The Power Wagon has beadlocks and proline tires. I was hoping they’d use that setup going forward but… nope 😅

    • @TheShopMiniRC
      @TheShopMiniRC  Місяць тому +1

      Yeah, that’s the one that hard real beadlocks. Wish they would have done that here.

    Just picked one up about two weeks ago, day one steering servo failed, esc combo sucks, very noisy, so get a better steering servo, injora esc, turbo racing receiver, injora driveshaft. Brash axle covers, aluminum steering link. Better tires. Stock motor and transmission, And now it's as good as my trx4m platform build.

    • @TheShopMiniRC
      @TheShopMiniRC  12 днів тому +1

      Yeah, the stock servo and motor is a little rough around the edges, but it’s a great platform for upgrades.

      Early gens definitely have a charm. Maybe since they have a Lexus license, they can get some older models?!

    @Hutch_Davenport Місяць тому +1

    Needs a better motor, tires and wheels and it would be a worthy RTR. As it is, it is just an okay crawler. Disappointed by mini crawler RTRs again. Oil shocks are a very nice thing to see stock though.

    • @TheShopMiniRC
      @TheShopMiniRC  Місяць тому

      Sorry to hear that. RTRs will almost always need some form of upgrade.
