Fms are really killing it.
Great list and rigs. 👍
Thanks very much 👍😁
Yeah they've had some great releases. I do hope they do some more large scale hardbodies. 👍
I would LOVE a 1/10 Patrol! Great call
@hellcat3522 Would be awesome wouldn't it. 👍
I've got the new Yikong to review which is basically a Patrol, but it's a lexan body and doesn't look great tbh. We need a nice hardbody. 👍😎
@@DoURC FCX10 is such a mega platform, be cool if there were aftermarket body options, really the only (also dont ship to NZ) reason I didn't jump on it when released. I'm not coming to EAST without a built 1/10...gotta be the right one tho
@hellcat3522 I mean you could make any body fit really if the wheelbase is right. Maybe use magnet mounts. 👍
@@DoURC Im keen for your video regarding Yikong's 'patrol" - being a patrol owner myself (Y62) id love a Patrol rc in my fleet
@pandadundee6430 Will hopefully be soon, just started running it, so far so good. Seems a million times better than the RGT Pathfinder I'm doing at the same time! 😬🤣
Amazing line up mate, I’d deffo say those build offs were amazing fun. 😊
Thanks very much mate. 👍
Yeah the build offs were great fun, looking forward to more in 2025 mate. 👍😁
Love your list ...at the moment I can't afford a 1/10 but love your fms choices .On the 124 fms Mercedes Unimog I bought mine after seeing your build video, and I'm very happy with it ,so thank you for your excellent channel content 👍.....Harry
Ah excellent, they're great little rigs aren't they. Would be great if FMS did a tenth scale Unimog hardbody, now that would be cool. 👍
Great list of vehicles. I just bought two FMS 1/24 Unimogs for me and my wife. We have been driving RC for 20 years together.
Thanks very much 👍
Ah excellent, that's awesome. They're really nice rigs aren't they, especially with some better tyres and a little weight up front. 👍
I enjoyed this vid, definitely going to get into this hobby and get a rock myself a mini crawler 🎉
Thanks very much. 👍
It's a great hobby to get into. 👍
nice they all look awesome (i'm not keen on the cr18p body tho) nice footage too 💯❤🔥
Thanks very much 👍
Yeah I can understand it's not to everyone's taste. 👍
You nailed it! 🎉 I have looked those Toyotas, Landys, and K10 to build "olde banger" with stock wheels and added weight (I have willys 1/12 and boy, weight adds realism!) one other car could be suzuki samurai sj410, but modded like "standard" class In off road events... Thanks!
Thanks very much 👍
Yeah I do have the Mashigan and Jimny I'm hoping to do something with this year too. 👍
Thank you for this great video and i wish you all the best for 2025!
The TRX4 still making it to your list after all these years proves something too. I think it’s capability just stopped surprising you. For me, it is my only rig and although i have been in doubt to buy a second rig, and i am aware that there are better performers now, i don’t think there is one that would really blow my defender away.
Thanks very much, you too. 👍
Yeah it's still a great rig, it was just unfortunate I had some issues with it this year. It's the drive train noise which is really spoiling it for me atm, it sounds awful. I've tried loads to sort it, but will keep trying this year. 👍
I always watch your videos 👍 I'm supporting you from now on🤝😉🎶
Thanks very much mate, appreciate it. 👍😎
@ 👍😁
Awesome video ❤great list poor trx4 😂 I just ordered an 1/18 rc4wd so that will be interesting 🤔 😅
Thanks very much 👍
🤣 Yeah, it has taken some abuse tbf. 😬🤣
Ah cool, which one did you go for? Hopefully be better than the 1/24 TF2 I got! 😬🤣
@ 😂 it has but it’s what land rover is built for 😜
Yes hopefully I went for the rc4wd black hawk. Looks pretty awesome but will have to wait and see.
Love to hear about what people actually take with them when they go out driving! Yours and crawlstockrc's build-off on the fcx24 unimog was the tipping point for me to actually order one myself, i have had my eye on it since it was released but never pulled the trigger and now i have about 5 projects of aesthetic customization started and i can't choose which one to actually go with, its such a fun little truck!
Ah excellent, they're great little trucks aren't they. Lots of options for builds. I like that they're not a proper 24th scale, so a decent size to work with. 👍
Do you bring multiple batteries when out trailing?
When I go to events yeah. When I'm just trailing with 1 rig, I normally use something like a 5000mah lipo, which gives me plenty of run time. 👍
fcx18 is an awesome rig.
After watching this i think I want that unimog with the shell
They're great aren't they. 👍
You can buy them already done from Fair RC with the camper bed, or buy the bed separately to build it yourself.
It's really easy to swap over, uses all the same mounting points as stock rear bed. 👍
I own a TRX4 Bronco 79´ with injora rims, Injora Mud Claws tires, Injora skid plates, Injora shock absorber/springs and ESS Dual Sound. The second one is the Amewi Caballo with the same Injora parts like the Bronco and ESS Dual Sound, but the Caballo gets the Fusion SE and other Tires from RunUp. And my third one is the TF2 Toyota Pick Up 1982 😁. I will do in time the Chino Mod and the O-Ring Mod. When it does not work I will change on a link suspension!
Greetings from Germany
Greetings from the UK. 👍🇬🇧
Sounds like you've got a great collection there. I've wanted a 79 Bronco for ages, they look great. 👍
Great video. Very helpful. I’ve been a basher for a while now but interested in crawling. Ordered a FCX18 to start with. Excited to try something different. Good to mix things up. Any advice for a beginner crawler? Keep the good work up 👍🏼
Thanks very much 👍
Crawling is great fun and very satisfying. I find it really peaceful too. 👍
I'd say just take it easy and watch lots of videos on mods and upgrades etc to see what you like.
FCX18 is a great rig to start with and lots of upgrades available. 👍
Great looking fleet !!
Thanks very much 👍
Nice👍👍👍
Thanks very much mate 👍😎
Cool vid RC MUD KING! 👑
Thanks very much mate, appreciate it. 👍
@@DoURC😊
Just come across your Chanel u now got a new subscriber his video I loved it I’ve got a couple 1/24 fms Range Rover and ftx Land Rover pic up seeing as u have put up the uni mog and seeing it in the mud think I know what to get next
Thanks very much, appreciate it and hope you enjoy the rest of my content. 👍
The Unimogs are great rigs, my favourite FCX24 model. Would be awesome if FMS did a hardbody tenth scale Unimog. 👍😎
Re the fj40 I would be happier if they just make an update to it with a two speed, brushless, a different color, like red say. One that I’ve been eyeing for a while is their 1/6 Jimny which actually has a two speed and leafs as well so lifting it is as simple as flipping the brackets. I’ve enjoyed seeing what folks have turned that one into. The one thing I don’t like about the fj40 tho is that the front axle is slightly too far back as is. My favorite aesthetic thing on the real one is the way the front axle is just a bit forward so the tire’s leading edge is just ahead of the grill like it also is on early jeeps. I’m told that can be corrected with changed out links and whatever but I haven’t seen much of a consensus on what to buy for that. The problem is even worse when you convert the fj40 to leafs. Makes me scream internally.
I did see some folks convert the big Jimny to links which was cool at least.
Yeah I love the Jimny builds. It's an ugly rig stock imo, but can look awesome once modified. It doesn't have a 2 speed though, it's basically the same as the Willy's Jeep, just with leaf springs. 👍
A lot of people fit AR44 axles to the Jimny for the link conversion and better axles with upgrades. 👍
for cristmas I got a Traxxas trx4m with the ford f150 body in black and I love it. it was my first ever rc crawler. I have not been able to modify it yet but still really like it. I also find your videos very helpful and fun
Ah nice, good start to getting into the hobby, hope you enjoy it. 👍
Thanks very much, glad you enjoyed it. 👍
@@DoURC thank you. do you have any suggestions
Great List great variety you like the mud 😁 I agree with you Fms hardbody’s are great need more I have a Mashigan 👍👍 and 1/6 Willy’s ,your tires and wheels look great cool look,what size figure you using? Thanks. Cool seeing a Grand Hauler,on my short list for 2025
Thanks very much 👍
I certainly do, mud is like my favourite thing to do! 🤣😁
Ah nice, both really nice looking rigs. 👍
The figure is a 12" figure I got off Aliexpress 👍
Itii am intrested in doing a semi. Havent ever done one but the rhougt of it with a trailer seems viil. Also would like to do a tank
I love my truck, don't use it much, but it's just awesome. 👍
I love tanks too, just bought the Sherman, King Tiger next. 👍
7:04❤ yas that’s what it would say when I look at my RC the one that I I customize😅
🤣 Sometimes you've just got to appreciate them ey. 🤣👍
@@DoURC 🤣🤣❤️
There is a lot to be said about a ride that feels a little real, that isn't too easy. I love the fms fcx24 K5. I pimped it out, and I love the hard body on it. Sure, top heavy, but fun. I don't want something that performs better. Better performance equals boring. The challenge is the fun.
Yeah, that's obe of the things I love about the RC4WD, it's a very different driving experience and I find it really enjoyable. I much prefer a hardbody, it's a worthwhile sacrifice imo for a bit of performance. 👍
Thanks for your vidéo from Lyon France
Happy New year Lio
@@lionelfr Thanks very much. Happy New Year from the UK. 👍🎉🇬🇧
👍
and I have a question about FMS 1/24 is the FMS k5 blazer really 1/24 because it seems bigger than other 1/24 trucks. What do you think? And the same thing about 1-10 ? Thanks
@lionelfr No, the FCX24's are closer to 1/18 scale really.
The FCX10 is similar size to others 1/10 scales, like Traxxas etc. 👍
Okay and do you think there is a reason for this? They also produced 1/24 M FCX which may be more real 1/24 scales !
Nice video. I still think the defender looks the best out of all of those. Shame you've had difficulties with it.
Thanks very much 👍
It's still a great rig and was my number 1 favourite last year. Hopefully I can sort it this year and it can reclaim the top spot. 👍
I agree, I absolutely love the fj40. The only reason I haven't gotten one is because of the chassis. Would love to see more vehicles on the fcx10 chassis. I'm currently in the market for another 10 scale so I have enough not run with my nephews. I'd love it if they came out with another body for the fcx10 with portals.
Yeah, unfortunately upgrade options for the FJ40 Chassis are limited, although you can swap over to AR44/45 axles.
Yeah more body options on the FCX10 would be great. You can swap the LC80 over to the K5 chassis if you get the mounting system too. 👍
I want to get an Axial Base Camp and TRX4 Sport soon, see what they're like too. 👍
Solution to your TRX4 issues: FMS 1:10 FCX10 PRO Brushless Toyota Land Cruiser LC80 RS just launched!
🤣 Yeah I have seen it. Be interesting to see how it could compete with the brushless TRX4. My only concern would be it's an outrunner tbh, I'd prefer a sealed can like Fusion for proper mud fun. 👍
Do you have links to the fcx10 K5 bumper and roof rack?
I don't sorry. The bumper I bought ages ago for an LC80 build, if you search RC LC80 upgrades on Aliexpress it should come up. The roof rack I think I got from Modelsport. Been a while sorry! 😬
Feliz Año 2025
Hermosa Noche de Reyes.
Gracias geniales videos , aunque no valorarte al 1/24 Discovery.
Saludos.
Thanks very much and Happy New Year. 👍
Not sure what you mean on the Discovery sorry, do you mean you don't like it?
Te agradezco rápida respuesta Amigo.
Claro que me encanta , lo compre después de ver Tu video.
Lo que deseaba expresarte que no gavia entrado entre lis 10 favoritos de Tu lista.
Saludos
Try to spray some wd40 oil to engine bearings and driveshafts, plus portal bearings maybe this will help you😊
Thanks very much 👍
I've done a full rebuild on it with all new bearings, tried white marine grease, silicone spray, changed the drive shafts, new gearbox, adjusted the gear mesh etc. I think I'm going to try some different grease and see if there's one that helps. Seen a lot of people talking about a green grease I may try.
Thanks for the suggestions. 👍
I enjoyed this vid. Thank you. Any hints as to what 2025 will be bringing to the channel?
Thanks very much mate, appreciate it. 👍
I'd like to do some more builds in 2025 and do more stuff I enjoy. I love military stuff, so hoping to do more of that. 👍
I really want to build an 8x8 too, that's an itch I need to scratch. 😁
👍
Thanks 👍
Rig rig rig rig rig rig rig
🤣🤣🤣 Now all I can think of is that Seven Dwarfs song!
Rig, rig, rig, rig, rig, rig, rig the whole night through! 🤣
Glad you enjoyed my commentary. 😁
I just can't find justification in spending $500+ for an rc4wd for basically a barebones chassis and a nice hardbody. That's really all your laying for is the body.
Yeah they are very expensive. The chassis is pretty decent though. All I changed on mine initially was the radio gear and it was much nicer. Then I fitted a Fusion SE as the 540 motor didn't have enough punch.
If you're not fussed on a leaf spring chassis you can buy the bodies separately, or go for something like a Team Raffee body instead. 👍
Just bought my first real RC. Went with the FCX 24 Blazer. So excited. Any tips for a complete newbie? Thanks for your videos.
@tennesseebroncos84 Ah excellent, hope you like it. Check out my Free mods and first upgrades video in my Mini Crawlers playlist. 👍
@@DoURC will do. I almost picked up the 1/18 LC80 that is on sale for $119 but thought the blazer looked more visually appealing. Excited to get the blazer in. Looking to add the FCX18 Truck.
@@tennesseebroncos84 The FCX18 LC80 is one of my favourites, really good trucks, especially at the current price. 👍
Played a drinking game. Every time the term "rig" was used. Mate passed away from brain hemourage after 9 min into vid.

@DoURC well he was. But it was a fun game. All that matters

OK bạn chìa sẻ video rất hay quá bạn ơi xe đẹp quá bạn ơi like nhé 🙏
Thanks very much 👍
First and great video 👍
Thanks very much, appreciate it. 👍😁
I got the yellow fj40
Great rig isn't it, love mine. 👍
1/18 and smaller are simply too small
I think they have their place and are still fun. Different challenges for different scales. 👍
hmm, 4th video which features almost the exact same RC's as the previous lists you've done. Bit redundant isn't it?
Literally half the RC's in this video aren't in my previous Top videos I've done recently.
Last time I checked it was my channel! 🤷♂️
@@DoURC As I said, almost exactly the same.
Yes it is your channel, never questioned that so no need to be so defensive.
As a viewer it's just not too interesting seeing videos almost back to back with alot f the same things over and over.
And as a viewer I'm allowed to give my criticism. No need to take offence :)
@thqp Sorry, I didn't mean to sound like such a dick!
I get what you're saying, but this video was my personal preference vs my professional opinion if you can call it that. 👍
Will be back to normal videos now anyway, they were end of year videos I thought may be useful and people would enjoy. 👍
@@DoURC It's all right :) Hyped to see the future videos :)
@thqp Thanks very much. 👍
