- In this video i go over the trials and tribulations to upgrade a Rovan 450 XLT so it can handle big bore engines. Also applies to King motors and 30 Degree North Losi 5ive T 1.0 copies.
Great video Brian! Designing circuits and now your a machinist. Awesome skills and Rovan upgrades.
Thanks RC. I'm going to be diving back into that vehicle soon with more deranged ideas. Thanks for checking it out buddy
What a great video very informative keep it up 👍
Thanks Matt, it always helps to hear when someone actually likes these things lol
Awesome video and nice work! And explanations! You got a new sub sir!
Thanks buddy, i just went and checked out your channel and you got a new subscriber as well. You have some great content! Now time for me to go check out and "like" your videos. Thanks sir
Great Video 👍
Thanks PaintenDave. Hopefully all your snow melted by now.
Now this is next level !!! Great work!!!!
Thanks for checking it out Big John
@@RCWalletVacuum I try to keep up ! You have some great ideas and content 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
From what I've seen you are the Godfather of the 1/5th scale world! Keep those stellar builds coming.@@JOHND_RC
Man I can't wait to get my lathe
You can never have enough tools,lol
That xlt is going to be bad ass are they rovan tires can't wait to see the finished product and the run video 🙌
Thanks Kong. They are the Rovan tires but i don't suspect they will hold up.
Man I gotta say I appreciate a true RC man of knowledge and skill. I was quick to subscribe thank you
Hey House T, thanks for the comments and sub(sent one back to you). I have a whole bunch of videos planned so stay tuned. I've only been doing this a couple of months so i'm still trying to figure out how to best do the videos and i so much appreciate getting comments and feedback from viewers. Thanks for your input and checking out the channel.
Genuinely love what you have done here . Great job ! Can’t wait to see it running !!
Thanks Dave, i tossed a sub your way and check out the video i put up this past weekend where i finished it up and test fired it. Hopefully this weekend i can run it with some video, including pov from the integrated gopro mount. Thanks for subscribing and checking in
Awesome work as always Brian! Thanks for the mention. Can’t wait to se this big girl run! Keep up the great work brother!
Thanks Todd, hopefully the weather improves soon so i can finish the new track and start running/breaking these vehicles.
Quality video! it makes sense to buy a 5ive t 2.0 and swap the rovan chassis, arms and center braces to avoid all the quality issues. Almost pulled the plug on a 30 degree north 2.0 but their really is a difference. Great video! Man you have all the tools and skills to fabricate every piece you purchased. 👍
Thanks buddy. The Rovan's do have their issues but i still like them, there is always a trade off somewhere. Thanks for your input and checking out the video.
@@RCWalletVacuum keep making them! I will share this
@@alterdcustomrc4512 Thanks buddy, i really appreciate that. The next few months will probably be more run videos then when fall hits i will go back to build mode. Two projects in the works are a BAJA or clone into a full on tracked snowmobile with a single cyl big bore or OBR twin. The other is a short course truck with a hand fabricated chassis built around a single cyl big bore and 5ive t aftermarket diff parts. The tube chassis will replace the chassis plate. I will need to make custom piston/valve stack for the shocks. I really do appreciate your input and i can see from your channel that i now no where to go for an expert in electric versions.
@@RCWalletVacuum projects for days. Looking forward to seeing them in action on that track you building! Electric is a blast. I bent the chassis on the dbxl and the driveshafts. I have a vitivon chassis and new motor setup going in posiden 2240 880kv. I also just purchased the wheelman kraken vekka 5 electric conversion. Gonna put that kit together. Should be wild and also doing a Taylor rc 5ive t electric and a stock one gas because nothing beats that noise. 🙏❤️
@@alterdcustomrc4512 Sounds great dude, i'll be watching for those videos!
id say with that kind of power those taylor diff housings will def buy you some time on those stock diffs ,,,,,lots of times stripped diffs are due to plastic flexing under load
Hi Shadetree RC, i'm sure the stock pinion gears will need to be replaced as well but it will be a test to see what it can take. Thanks for checking in
That thing should mess up your yard pretty bad lol
Hey Wade, i sure hope so! Any word on the engine your waiting for?
@@RCWalletVacuum no not yet still waiting lol im waiting on the v2 Taylor 35
@@wades5thscaleforlife872 Good luck Wade, hopefully it shows soon
@@RCWalletVacuum i haven't paid for it yet they haven't released it yet
