      They ruined this one I think by not making it an actual 1/12 scale, repurposing the Willys MB running gear, axles and wheels/tires and cheaping out on the interior. The 1/12 Willys MB, Kommadeurwagen Beetle, Kubelwagen, Jimny (the Jimny is super scale) are all exquisite with the unique details but this one gets re-used parts.

    I simply don't understand why the trolls keep whining about Phil testing "cheap Chinese crap". If I were in the market for a realistic 1:12 scale FJ45, I'd have a choice between the Team Associated CR-12, the WPL C44, the MN Models MN45 and this FMS. Of these, are are Chinese except the Team Associated, which has a lexan shell with distinctly dodgy proportions and is constantly listed as 'unavailable' anyway.
    So, dear trolls, the only options are budget offerings from China. Case closed - please stop wasting our time.
    Thank you.

    Fixed the Turn Signal issue. Take apart the Front / Rear Light Assembly and simply put a small piece of electrical tape over the particular LED that flashes "yellow". Press firmly to set the tape over the LED...also add a small dab of glue to set it all in place. Reassemble and you're set. Any function that flashes "yellow" is now black.

    It's fully licensed but not correct for any one year Toyota FJ45. It's got a mixture of details from different year, different decade trucks. If the headlight surround is squared, then it's like a 1979 and later FJ and it gets larger half clear/half amber turn signals in front, a different font on the grille, recessed door handles and should have the bulge on the windshield frame for the wiper motor. Biggest surprise is it's not 1/12 scale and re-uses the running gear from the Willys MB. Kind of a fail after the high marks of their Beetle, Kubelwagen, Willys MB and Suzuki Jimny models. Those have great details all around and are super scale.

    Hi Tomley, nice review as always!! just wanted to ask if the transmission of your fj45 makes a single "click" noise each time after the wheels move briefly when low gear is engaged? from my observation, it looks like before the "click" the transmission shaft does not go back far enough to the rear of the vehicle, and after the "click", the shaft pushes further towards the rear of the rear vehicle, at where it should be at normal operation. Does what I have just describe makes sense? lol!

  • @Robert-jg9rr
    @Robert-jg9rr Рік тому

    I'm in no way an expert or even a "noob" when it comes to RC vehicles but these crawlers all seem to suffer from a lack of weight to help achieve proper grip on the wheels. Again I literally know nothing about crawlers but it seems that adding weight to the lowest parts of the frame to maintain stability would provide more grip for the tires in the conditions your driving in. Also, I just had an idea that could possibly help with tire grip BUT it's completely out of the box thinking and may not work at all. But what if you applied shoe goo to the tires and give it a very aggressive texture as it dries? The stuff is very "grippy" so possibly it would give better traction. You could even embed something into the shoe goo to provide even more grip. Just tossing out Ideas, so take it as you will.

    If you like things that do not run right they are just fine. If you like wobbly tires and a truck that scrapes tires around corners . If you like plastic that does not fit or match in critical places. I have bought a few of these FMS deals and they are on the junky side! Tons of things wrong with all of these. I realize that they are scale but that does not mean we skimp on quality!!! They are getting better but still have a way to go to make a easy to use product that performs like the big names. They are very nice looking till you notice some problems. Tail gate on mine does not fit properly and the bed is warped!!! Tires wobble way too much on almost all of these. The wobble is so bad you can see the truck move around as it goes. And it will not back up straight. I am about to give up on these guys!! But, Almost! Keep trying!
