I shoot all my videos on the Sony a6500 in 4K, with Sigma 16mm, 19mm & 30mm and 55-210mm f1.4 lenses and the Zhiyun Crane V2. - Авто та транспорт
The supplied 14-tooth pinion in the kit also made my SCX10-III drivetrain whine. Using the 14-t holes in the motor mount plate gave me little gear lash (play between pinion and spur gears). Replacing this pinion with an aftermarket same tooth count pinion lead to a much quieter operating vehicle.
I love mine,already have a hardbody and custom light kit that I'm working the bugs out of,this build keeps getting better and better.
The screen is an AWESOME little mod! 🤙
I can't wait to see more videos of the axial scx10iii. Love that truck!👍
Another great video. I just picked up some of those RC4WD tires. Super excited to give them a try.
Thank you, I will be looking forward to more tips. This is my first Axial truck, I have 3 TRX4s . Still waiting for delivery, but thinking of setting the very nice Jeep body aside , shorten the wheelbase and running the UMG10 body.
On another note, hope the world gets back on track so we can go and play. Enjoying your videos in the meantime.
Love the new truck scale is what I like and my normal truck has to many upgrades so I think I want this for sure
Love that bumper. Looks great
Love that scale front bumper. I think in real life the end pieces are removable so adding larger tires is easier.
Hahaha I love the "Intro" Thanks for sharing this video. Dont stop your good job and stay safe man.
Damn it matt I have enough projects going I dont need another truck!!! Now everyone of your videos make me want to pick up a scx3!!
Great tips Matt👍👍 Keep them coming.
Awesome upgrades .. Love that interior screen and those lights? Specially the working tail lights are awesome. Great work Mat. Thanks for sharing
Thanks! 👍
Thank you for getting rid of those god awful huge tires that come with the truck...sweet platform and love the wheel tire combo you used!🙌🏻👌🏻🔥
Really like the wheels and tires combo. Front bumper looks really good.
Thanks 👍
Greatest intro yet!
I Love the bumper and I have the same tires on the way but but the 4.19. Your Jeep is looking sweet
Good video, upbeat and an excellent Jeep, big thanks chief 😎
Glad you liked it!
You are the man that making me buy this scx10 iii😂
Great video on better setup. Dude out the gate you said I have already found a way to rune it lol funny.
I need one of these in my life.
Great video! I bought a screen and painted gauges from the vendor in your link. Very very cool stuff! My screen will include the State of Texas. It’s powered by a receiver plug. Cool!!
Awesome! Thank you!
Bro I love your channel. Here showing support again
Thanks for the visit!
Love that scream
I actually am surprised by how GOOD the stock tires are down here. They clean out quite well, and grip is good. It was 90degrees out so that does make a difference many times
1 thing... u could scale. well done!
Vitavon has actually just released their CNC Aluminum Panhard mount! I cant wait to get my kit and see what I can do with my kit! your looks awesome, just like all the other builds you do!
I'll check it out!
I watch these religiously
It would be awesome to see a stubby version of that front bumper!!
My brother is ordering one of these today so I will pass on the tips! Thanks
Please do!
I love mine. I have already added some things. I also removed the interior cage and limited the front shocks . I've added Capra hot racing brass and some rims and tires.
I think you need a whole video of how u installed the lights how you fit them into the buckets and where you bought everything🙏🏼
Great mods ....keep it up...
It would make sense for axial to sell the straight axle parts considering this is the first scx10 type with portals and it can’t cost that much to make, I’m kind of surprised it wasn’t given as an option already considering dig and the 2 speed are options in this kit version. Its crazy what it cost you to make that trx4 straight axles. They need to have tiers of scx10 3’s to compete at the different levels like Traxxas, with a builders kit that’s has the pieces to do the portals or straight axles and 2 speed and dig. And then a couple other levels to round it out.
Micro servo's other than spectrum....that fit. Praying mine hold up for more than 2 runs!!!!
Cool vid as always! Do you know if the Vanquish Rock Jocks can be a replacement for the portals? And if the portals would work on scx -2? Thanks Matt!!
Hi Matt, it’s.....cen- tri- fug- al force, and I never took fisics eifir 😂. I really like how you present your package hahaha
I made a “tool” to drain tires that are vented on the tires. I took a 2-1/2” long machine screw and a small fender washer and put that on the back of the wheel, then a nut or wing nut on the front to hold the tire and wheel on there. Then I tighten the end of the screw into my drill and hold the trigger until as much of the water that I can get out has flung out. I’ve only used it once but it works pretty well.
I have the same tool but mine looks like a truck
My trail honcho came with Falken tires and they're very good
Enjoying the videos thank you, what size slw hubs are you using on the roost wheels.
Thanks again.
Some great ideas, not running the interior, new wheels and tires, 11t pinion and mine crawls great
If there's any more after market parts for the scx10iii it would be a great budget build platform.
Классный аксиал👍amazing video, cool, like my friend🔥
Y'all have a badass day 🤘
🤘
Hi, just wondering how many of those chassis parts are interchangeable with the SCX10.II? I curious about the trans, LS motor cover, servo mounting bracket.
Ruined!!! ruined!! ruined! Looks great I love the tire and rim combination;)
Just got the grey RTR. The tires are a bit big. They look nice. But went with the RC4WD white 1.9 stamped steel wagon wheels and 4" tires. My 76 Ford Carisma climbs just as good, don't know the ratio, but it's three times faster. And it crawls just as slow. But the Jeep is smoother.
LIT Led has a fully plug n play light kit
Neat!
Hello SBG! Saw a video on UA-cam which was named "Realistic looking SCX10 wheel hubs at almost no cost!". I think if you do that to your scx10iii, the wheels and tires will have a more realistic overall look.
Yes, but current gen JL's don't have locking hubs, hence why I did make them look like that.
I been curious about those tires. I have pitbull rockbeasts and not a big fan.
Is a trx4 a good platform to convert to scx10.3?or should I order an scx10.2 and start there?
Do you now where I can get tail light covers with a clear spot for reverse lights
Harley resigns.. hahahaha im dead
Love the scale 3D JL front bumper. I don't have a 3D printer, so please set up at your Shapeways store. I know Yeggi has the files, but it's a PIA to transfer to a vendor to print. Just to be picky, I need the shorty version to match my 1:1 "Rubi" steel F bumper. Too demanding? 😜
I heard Josh was already converting his chassis to a Vanquish chassis
I have those same rims they are now discontinued from vanquish. Only issue they scratch easy due to no bead lock rings. Like those tires. Hey I’ll buy that bumper or trial run I have forge creator pro :)
I don't think they're discontinued, just sold out.
New to the guild... But if *****19 ever lets you get down to Vegas, I would love to drive with ya. I know some decent places to crawl here.
Hey Matt! You may have done more videos on this that I've missed and if so, sorry
But if not, I recently got my 10 3 running and are quite disappointed, I expect I to be very good but so far my old Vaterra Ascender is just as good. Yes I still run the stock wheel because at the moment I can't afford ned ones, maybe later this month after my birthday but we'll see.
I don't think the 10 3 is that big of thrill to drive, are there any mods apart from New tires you can recommend now a year later? I do have my own set of 3d printed wheels on it
I've done a few other videos on this platform, including the straight axle conversion, there's plenty of tips and tricks that I'd suggest you watch those other videos as well. Good luck!
interior car tv its amazing 🎇👍👍
Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice👍
MATT, I srayed PS paint on the out side of my Killer body the remember I should have used TS paint on it, it a dull lime green. Can I spray a clear coat of eithe PS or TS paint on it and save a bunch of sanding to get the PS paint off?
You should be able to spray TS over it without any trouble. Test in an inconspicuous place first.
Hi again.. 😏 nice mods to the jeep. But what 3d printer do u use? Is there eny good, to a good price you would recoment? Thx m
I use a Tevo Tornado. Works great.
Must be nice to have a set of Vanquish Method Roost wheels. I’ve been trying to buy some for a year.
And I’ve had these in my stash for at least two years! Not special, just saved them for a rainy day!
@@scalebuildersguild Yes, I have seen you use them on several projects. I used your video to coerce VP into making another run. Great channel. Thank you!
Screens in RC, times have changed.
I’m still trying to add my axe system to this truck having trouble with it tho
LoL! I just noticed one of the scrolling screens say " **SCALERS** 4 Life! " LoL Matts favorite word! SCALER! SCALER! SCALER! HaHa! Sounds like a "Spiderman" thing ... scaling buildings RoFl!
😂 Thanks for watching!
hello SBG i really like the scx10 iii, but i wanna build it like everyday truck(lower it a bit) and put lc70 body on it. my question is you think the width of truck gonna be to wide ? can i just change the tyre to smaller size to fix it ?
The 70 series body is very small. This platform is closer to 1/8th than the 1/10th of that body.
Matt, can you give me the model and name of a good single action air brush that i could chan tip for wider coverage but also one that can make decent lines whenj detailing or do I have th go to to a dual action air brush? Tthanks for your Help. And also do you know of a paint supplier that I can get rus and chipping paint set?
I generally recommend Paasche. I like their brushes the best. Don't use a single action anymore, so can't reco a specific model. You'll have to search online to find the chipping set. Sorry.
I stills haven’t put mine together yet, I need to while off work and have the time. I watch your videos because you have super helpful info, worried about the front shock towers and worried about putting the Reef’s triple 5 in it and having to trim her up. Is Axial going to do a recall on that part???, everyone I’ve seen has had to trim there’s. Thanks brother
A revised part maybe. It’s not a difficult trim.
Scale Builder's Guild thanks for taking the time, we all appreciate you.
Thank you for the gear ratio breakdown Josh.... hahaha....haha...ha.......oh. ;-)
Any time!
I cant find the spot to order the screens. Or the price.
Wow👍👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️
Could you please consider building Wpl kit, I own one and think it's a good starting point for somebody who don't want to drop 500$ for a first truck
Yes I've been waiting to buy one until I figured out a way to ruin it
Hi, just wondering how many of those chassis parts are interchangeable with the SCX10.II? I’m curious about the trans, LS motor cover, servo mounting bracket, fenders, and battery trays.
Zero. Complete redesign.
Scale Builder's Guild ok, thank you. I’ll just have to see if I can find one.
When I saw the mtr's I was hoping you would have used the 4.19 tires. I'm curious to see how those look scale wise on the new jeep. Plus I already purchased them. lol
4.19’s look comically small. I tried them last night on the live stream.
@@scalebuildersguild Really? shouldn't they scale out to about 37" (roughly) for a 1/9 scale rig?
Hey my SCX10III should be here this week, Hobby Hobby is shipping it today. I'm going to upgrade rims &/or tires but I'm not sure about clearance of the portal hubs. Is 2.2 rim better or is it just an offset issue with 1.9 or both? I'm not worried about outter diameter of tire, just any info on portal hub clearance & rims would be great!
I've got a Capra and similar or same portal set up... with rims you need to choose one without beadlock rings on outside edge... ie the inner rim lip needs to be as thin as possible. So a rim that bolts together in the centre or from front generally fits..
Cheers mate 👍
Mick D Cool thanks!
I’m still waiting on my LHS to get them in stock!
The first batch went quick!
straight axle conversion? is it because the truck is top heavy or you want to keep slamming that low pumpkin into rocks or does the new portals not look scale or like myself you just can't leave it stock, it can't be that the portals are less capable, just trying to understand why you would go to straight axles. Now that being said I too thought portals were a bit silly until I drove a redcat gen 8 now I want portals on everything! My scx10III is still in the box waiting to be built and I can't wait to see those portals work or do I just order some straights and chuck the portals. Keep up the great work and when in doubt use loctite.
RC Mike Klein Biggest and main reason why some of us are waiting out for the straight axle SCX10.3 to come out is because stock JLUs don’t have portals in stock form. Mopar does offer a portal kit, but you won’t see that on a Jeep at a normal dealership lot. Second reason (might be more personal opinion), less gears/parts moving. Keeps it simple.
Lit led makes some good light kits and rock lights should check them out on Facebook!!
I just want to know if I purchased the kit and basecamp transmission will the transmission from the base camp work on the kit
You'll need to replace the skid as well.
@@scalebuildersguild thanks bro I'll look into it love the axial based crawler videos
Idk about that but the tire's work fine on my rig. I just changed the wheels
That'd be awesome to have straight axles on the scx10.3. Portals don't look right on that JLUR. Also... where did you get the Axial hat? Thanks
It was a gift from long ago!
@@scalebuildersguild damn. Lol. Was hoping to get one 🤷♂️
You should do an LS swa-
Oh wait
Here’s a few DIY print mods we have done for the 10.3. We do have more in progress too. sth.ecwid.com/Axial-SCX10-III-c48239546
Already bought and printed the servo cover!
Sweet 👍 NC MOUNTAINS 🏞backyard RC
" easy mods" vanquish wheels, rc4wd tires, 3d printed bumper, and a pinion gear these are all really expensive and not easy (love ya matt)
They might not be easy on the wallet, but I think we can both agree they're pretty easy to install.
@@scalebuildersguild i supos
I'm just not sure on portal's , I know the clearance you get am I weird
135th like, keep it up! 😉👍
So cool how can I get a doll head that’s looks like me? Great information!!
My friend made it for me, but check out www.classictvtoys.com/
@@scalebuildersguild Thanks!!
Wow! This LCD screen is amazing Where I can buy one please
In the description below!
Search me out on facebook or instagram - scale built 👍
Which RTR truck or suv would you recommend for someone new to RC.
If you have zero experience, I'd start with a ready to run to get your feet wet. That way, you haven't made a huge investment and can sell if you don't like it. Kits are a bigger starting investment.
@@scalebuildersguildI know that I dont want to get one from Walmart and there is no shops near me, where would you suggest i get one at
OK I will be ordering the light controller but where are the lights and the light buckets?
Light buckets are included with the truck. I used some spare led’s that were pre-wired.
Got it thanks go Raptors lol
Is the print file for the front bumper available?
Not from me, but you might be able to find something on Cults3d.
Buld one with leaf-springs!!!!!
JLU’s don’t have leafs.
centrafugal force ya ninni .
It must be tough on Axial, they keep designing new transmissions and people keep pulling out the new one to put in a older 3 gear transmission in.
Need a winch, I put one in mine
The upgrade i want to do in mine is to get one 😅
Me too.
Nop
I really like the tires, but I favor a little more bling if I'm peeling off for accessory wheels. After I get mine I'll decide on gearing. The first chore for me is defeating the DIG. It's the stupidest, most unneeded, problematic Gd gimmick Axial put into the RTR Capra IMHO. DIGs should be left to the 'Kit' buyer to install(as they presently are) or to voluntarily install in the 'RTR' versions.
Not a chore at all. Axial includes a spacer to eliminate both dig & 2 speed.
@@scalebuildersguild I DO NOT BUY 'KITS' for reasons of lack of space for a hobby workbench and its common appurtenances. I am a RTR buyer and disassembling a RTR and its transmission on my 200sq-ft bedroom floor is as UNTENABLE as a "kit" build. I figure pulling the micro servo plug for the DIG and gluing the activation rod stationary would be a much easier and more practical fix for my situation if Axial insists on including the DIG feature in a RTR SCX10III as they did in my RTR Capra. I presume the 2-speed could be remedied the same way as the aforementioned DIG if desired.
