I'm all for some Frankenstein builds! I do however love my Fireteams. They are way cool to watch run over terrain. I'd say, they aren't intended to be racers or moon senders. Mine aren't anyway. I don't know why people hated the body so much. It's awesome looking.
Stock body is objectively tougher and allows for self righting. The "nosing down" is fixed by gearing up a couple and moving the batteries back. My FT is still the best RC I've had.
I think the stock body is sick myself but I could see wanting to get rid of the extra weight though and they do have some cool options that will fit with a few mods, If I had one I'd probably keep the stock body as a shelf queen and bash it with an optional body.
I don't understand the hate for the fireteam body. It's the wildest looking body imo, and while it is heavy, it has added so much protection to mine. I've had basically zero breaks on this truck except when my buddy took it A-arm first into a tree (you can't blame the truck for that). Love the truck, love the body, prolly my favorite of my rigs.
I agree man, got one also. I always thought it was the 7th scale weight of the FireTeam that people took issue with. Everyone wanted a Kraton XL right?! Then the Big Rock comes out, weighs more and the tires are pretty useless from what they say... and people don't care because it has a crew cab body!? Because as an american, I don't see enough of those on my daily commute😛.
Awesome. The whole point is to find or create the RC that sings to you. I’m glad you love the stock body. We just wanted something more from ours. I love this hobby. 😎👍
Now that's a Great Build!! I'm getting the Trophy Truck vibe with it!! Chopping up that body is Scary but Well worth it. "Scared $$ Doesn't make $$ !! Can't wait for the running vid of this!! I Wish T-Bone didn't go out of business 😢. I still have some bumpers for my Typhon that I'm saving. Overall you nailed the look, let's see it Running!! Stay safe and Bash on from Colorado!!!
Killer build man, im digging you're channel alot. Im a new subscriber and appreciate the time you put into these videos. Gives me the old power block tv show type vibes. Keep it up!!! I already copied your outcast bodied notorious with the fireteam wheel and tire set but also used all the TLR Typhoon options i could buy from jenny rc. Killer content!!!
That gives me some ideas for sure. I got a used Fireteam because it was cheap but I don't like the Walmart RC style body. Not sure what I'll use but great content as usual!!
Great job brother!! I love the infraction body so why not throw it on the fireteam?!! Looks awesome and thanks for filling my rc void after sellin my cars.. I hope you and your fam have an amazing holiday!! 🧑🎄 🎄
Is that the new studio setup? IF so it looks awesome. Are you OK u gonna do any Corally stuff I'm on the fence about the Kagama I know it's a pretty expensive rig but I know alot of other people's well as myself value your input on a rig before before purchase.KEEP UP GREAT WORK HAPPY HOLIDAYS 3:37
Corally is special order at our local hobby shop, so we don’t do many of those. I do love the build quality of their RCs though. Perhaps we will one day get more in the studio. Thanks for commenting 😎👍
U think the infraction v2 chassis will fit the fireteam. I want to do a 8s fire team n halve batterys on sides vs stacking them on one side for weight valance. Looks nice by the way
Hi there, your vid really impressed me, so I swapped the infraction body that I still had lying around for the 1/5th scale kraton body, especially since it was pretty easy! Please check! Thank you very much for the inspiration! You're great, and have a nice one!🤩👋🏻
The fireteam body with the soldiers is one the coolest things ever. Best body of any RC. Your change ruined it and made it look like every other rc imo. To make it fly better just move the battery tray more posterior and slow down the rear shocks rebound with 1300 cst oil. Problem solved
But I focused on the Vorteks, the sleeper. Once you get the BIg Rock arms, links on and optional 17mm hex from the Typhon you have a truly amazing speedster going 60+ mph. Add a Hobbywing 10bl120 g2 game over it’s a winner!
Not cool. 👎👎 I like the Fireteam , it is something that looks different than the usual pickup truck. Leave the Fireteam alone. Why not just buy the Bigrock and make it your frunkenstein pickup truck. You just put the Fireteam to extinction.
But it is cool. The hobby is what we make of it. Creating something that makes me happy is an important part. I’m glad you like the Fireteam. But it’s not worth being negative over. You do you.
Fireteam is awesome. It does need tuning to make it great. Mine is totally geared up with no flaws. I put on it an unbreakable body-stock body is the worst thing about it-and it’s been whipping ass. If you start changing it into something else then it’s something else, not a fire team.

But the body is ugly.
@@beandean356 I guess if you're a commie
Funny because i see so many people putting after market bodies on it like the proline baja beetle or the 1966 Ford F-100.

Looks awesome, nice build 🔥
That is the best looking R/C of 2023!!! Great job bro… wow
Thanks a lot!

Mostly anti gun comments I’ve heard about it

Thank you. Glad we could help 😎👍
What a build!!! Awesome!!! Great video. Thanks! The shop looks incredible. Great stuff...
Thanks a bunch!
Great job buddy it came out awesome! I love that body and color scheme! America!
Right on 👍
Awesome RC workbench!!
Thanks! 👍
That gives me some ideas for sure. I got a used Fireteam because it was cheap but I don't like the Walmart RC style body. Not sure what I'll use but great content as usual!!
Looks good the worst thing about the fireteam is the body
Really cool rig😮🤘and nice new garage by the way👍
Also fracture 6s is a rockin name🎉 an changing the clips super good tip. You created a beast 💪 beautiful spot for your shakedown run🌅🌄🙏
Definitely one of the coolest basher builds i ever seen! I know its going to rip❤ you wer brave to clip that body but so worth it came out perfect 👌
very cool cant wait to see the running video
Great job brother!! I love the infraction body so why not throw it on the fireteam?!! Looks awesome and thanks for filling my rc void after sellin my cars.. I hope you and your fam have an amazing holiday!! 🧑🎄 🎄
That looks really good. I'm not a fan of the fireteam body but the chassis is supposed to be awesome so a good alternative.
AJ you could always try proline badlands LP 3.8 tires, theyd probably be perfect for this build
Is that the new studio setup? IF so it looks awesome. Are you OK u gonna do any Corally stuff I'm on the fence about the Kagama I know it's a pretty expensive rig but I know alot of other people's well as myself value your input on a rig before before purchase.KEEP UP GREAT WORK HAPPY HOLIDAYS 3:37

Cool idea!
Its a fraction fire👍

Have you tried to put the new big rock. 6s body that’s what I’m trying to do right now..and checking some videos..lol
im going to try the mojave shell

You could probably build a 1/10 scale version with ease too, maybe use a typhon 6s chassis or even the 3s, thr new mojave 4s tires
Good idea. It might be worth a try. 😎👍
Sad the new Big Rock 6s is 90%Fireteam with a bad esc
But I focused on the Vorteks, the sleeper. Once you get the BIg Rock arms, links on and optional 17mm hex from the Typhon you have a truly amazing speedster going 60+ mph. Add a Hobbywing 10bl120 g2 game over it’s a winner!
A hpi savage works great on the Fireteam...
Take two aj.
ua-cam.com/video/dwWaJegKM7s/v-deo.html my version of the fireteam - you guys name it! 😂
Man you did that infraction dirty it is very ugly you mines as well bought an XMAXXx

Dude that looks horrible.
it looks more scale now.like a true baja truck.i like options for the fireteam
