    Matt thanks for emailing me this video link. Great crawl footage. Much appreciated! 👍🏼

    I love these FCX24 videos, and Furitek are absolutely killing it, I'm betting those extended links won't be in stock often. Small tip for anyone that doesn't want to change out plastic parts on the axles, if you strip out the plastic you can drop some CA in the hole and run your screw down. It doesn't matter if it doesn't tighten at first just run the screw down and let the CA dry, it will lock the screw in and form new threads.

    Damn Matt! Ask and you shall receive! That's awesome. Once I'm back on the new build bandwagon, that Cayman with the XL links will be at the top of my list!

  • @xXDaReasonXx
    @xXDaReasonXx 2 роки тому +1

    as much as i love the big beefy tires with really aggressive tread like the baja pro x, they dont do that well on rocks. they slip around on those large lugs and you dont get traction consistently. however they are undisputedly better in mud and loose dirt or sand. i switched back to mt/r's, but id like to try those boom tires. that pattern looks ideal.

  • @trailwomanrc
    @trailwomanrc 2 роки тому +1

    Awesome crawling! Those links are an improvement but I'm still waiting for high clearance. Till then I'm making custom linkage and flex blade style shock mounts. Converting some injora deadbolt rear links to fit the FCX24.

    • @2fmrc
      @2fmrc  2 роки тому +2

      Yeah I really like making my own also. I can put whatever bend I want on them that way. Not sure why no1 is offering good high clearance links for the fcx24. The brass ones from fairrc I was running are nice but they are a bit stiff in the ball studs and are stock length so the rears are pretty useless to me.

      I’m hoping to get some decent time with them tomorrow. I only have the aggressor,hustle and max grapplers. I bought these and I actually just got an email from them asking if I’d wanna try some out. I’m gonna try to get them to send me some of the TPDs since I didn’t get those.

  • @texomarc
    @texomarc 2 роки тому +1

    The black hair ties are 1/5 the cost and they stretch better/not so tight. They don’t last super long before deteriorating. Really wanted to see those tires! Need to order some, or maybe I’ll wait. Thanks for Guinea pigging! Btw, you still want to run a chassis? Should have them all built today and I’ll start sanding. If you want one, I can send it out in the next couple days.

    I get attraction to 1/24 for indoor / train type constructed courses but 1/18 is my sweet spot. I have 2 older Losi Mini Rock Crawlers and they require patience and a lot flippin over to run rocks. Even in my up/mid class area it has gotten real bad with cops/ calls. RC cars in Sunday/empty parking lots. Nope.. Last 2X me/nephew had "armed intervention." Flying yard sized quadcopters = "calls you were spying and taking pictures." RIP USA's days of free fishin, huntin and playin.

    This maybe a dumb question but…
    Whats up with the sidewalls of the tires on this rig?
    They don’t look like normal sidewalls.

    • @2fmrc
      @2fmrc  2 роки тому

      They are extremely soft tires. The stock foams are too soft also so I’m using Flubberstufferz which give great support but don’t fully fill the tire up so the sidewall looks all wrinkled lol

    I got the barebones kit and it didn't come with drive shafts. After pointing out their error, they updated the description and picture to say its not included. They are gonna send me the driveshafts but furitek cant ship to my area, furitekusa can ship to me but they are on preorder.
    This kit sucks anyways, has poor flex with the stock shocks.
    Can this be converted to a max smasher?

      You could swap the skid with the one for the grasshopper and probably be good or if you don’t have the cayman yet just go with this chassis setup. It’s made for the fcx24 transmission.

I purchased the Cayman kit 12 days ago and have requested any type of shipping info 3 times already and have received no return emails from them. I'll wait till the 20 days without shipping notice and then just have Paypal cancel the purchase.
