What a good video. No crazy hype train to ride, no loud music, just some solid commentary then letting the rig speak for itself. And what a beaut of a rig it is! Well done, mate.
Great video, love my TF2 s as well. You hit the nail on the head, these trucks are awesome when you run them as they were meant to be run. The guys that try making them into something they’re not, then getting pissed off and saying the brand is junk. Love my trx4, basecamp, but they don’t do what the TF2 does!!
I very much like your show. without you i would have never known about [TF 2,S] or how too fix my new FMS 24 SMASHER. anyway, understand the probs you have with which is going on .Have been ther just try to roll with it my friend. good luck be well.
Great video. I'm actually working on a trx4 sport that I'm putting the RC4WD K10 body on. It's got the straight axle conversation and it reminds me of my first truck back in the day. Love the hobby and the amount of scale we can do these days.
id love to see a video of all your TF2s comparing the differences between them all and why you built each of them the way you did and what you like best any each one... that would be a fun video to watch. id also love to see you do a build series on your accent fusion and see what you would do to make it a full on seriously competitive comp rig... if you even can... or if it's worth it...but I know if it can, you're the guy to figure it out... 😉👍
@@DustinWoloschuk that would be cool to do! I actually haven’t did much with my fusion ascent since I went with the hard body on it but my original ascent will climb like a goat lol. That thing is insane! I have some footage of us out running ascents recently that I’m trying to get together here and there when I have time. Hopefully I’ll have another vid up on the ascent soon!
@@rcilluminati26 yeah I find myself just chilling and enjoying it more when out trailing with these scale trucks. I sometimes get a bit aggravated when I can’t make a line with a comp rig so it’s nice to just completely chill out now and then. I think the looks of them are also so good it just puts you in a good mood 😆
That truck looks awesome! Love the TF2 but it takes a few dollars to get good performance and make dependable. I went to Exoplex last weekend and had a blast with my buddy.
Great Video. Myself just building a Randy Built Vanquish Phoenix open box pick up. Printed bed and tailgate. Lots of work.. excited. Then next is a Hardbody on a VS4-10
I'm in the process of streamlining my RC collection. I had too many rigs of different scales that I just didn't drive, so I've been in the process of selling all but one 1t10 scale. None of the new releases have excited me, so I'm doubling down on my favorite crawler and nerding out on scale stuff at the moment. I know I'll pick up another one at some point, but for now one is just the right number for me.
Amazing crawling spot and totally baaaadddaaaasss rig! I definitely have my eyes on those for my next scale rig when I have the budget for another one.
That's sick! Time to trim some leaf springs r4 with some od. Love to get into rc4wd hardbody next. Do more running video and small top left corner talking about upgrades 2in1 video. 👍
I FREAKING LOVE THIS RIG DUDE> Honestly Love this Truck. It is why my Cheap A$$ got the WPL c24-1. 1 year and 3 rc's later wishing i had one of these. hahaha
Shoot man, gonna be hitting sum trails with my lady this weekend, life is good💪 I'm a big Christmas nerd also 😆. I've been obsessive with trx4m's and just "finished" a ground up build. 1/10 scale stuff, I'm in love with my axial CJ7. I really want to go true scale and get me a rc4wd 🔥I got to finish up a arrma notorious build before I pull the trigger.
Personally, I prefer one of these crawler scale rig than extreme crawlers. I believe that reality imitation is the way to go. Watching a chassis on wheels climbing a vertical rock doesn't call my to my attention. My rigs have the best crawling equipment but a scale look.
@@kalimahhh yeah I totally understand that man. Something about the real look just calms me while out crawling as well. I feel like the moon buggy looking builds should just do everything and then if I don’t I’m mad 😆
I love the video and love the view, but having some well specd TRX4s and Vanquish, and an RC4WD, I found my perfect car in the compromise of scale and performance with an RC4WD body on a Vanquish chasis with F10T straight axles (yota style). And I know I'm not the only one here...
@@danielserrano343 yeah I need to build a more custom hard body. Mine are mostly rtr with a few mods. Never been much of a vanquish fan but may have to give it a try lol
I love the rc4wd trucks. My 82 has the leaf springs all twisted out of place at the moment. One wet twig wrapped around the axle. And that was it. How much trimming did you have to do to get that fusion to fit in. I almost gave up on that beautiful engine.. but it barely worked out. A hobbywing axe or castle whatever would have worked just fine, but im stubborn.
@@SawWestRC I had to trim a decent bit on it but still kept the engine bay looking good lol. You can barely see the motor under the engine bay if you look though. I definitely need the anti-wrap bar for this one before I do much off-road in the creek or anything.
Yeah, there's not many rigs these days right out the box that don't need brass, just a few minor tweaks or adjustments like the Tf2 line. I have 3 but only one is a driver. The other 2 are still in the box
@@DoubleADay yep! I have the ssd knuckles for this one which are super heavy but haven’t even installed them yet. It handles really well without the added weight imo
Oh wow! Your the first person to point that out. The skid is crazy low and weird. Why is that?? Seems like a design that I could live with myself releasing.. Wonder what the fix for that is.. new skid.
@@archerash6695 yeah I usually get the A&M garage skid which is completely flat but metal. I am going to try the bowhouse on this one. It’s not as flat but it’s delrin so I’m curious how it’ll do.
Youre not missing out on too much of the lc80. Its a long wheelbase with straight axles, and a crazy heavy top. Im just treating mine kinda like a rc4wd, and just going crazy with scale details. It is crazy punchy too once you put a fusion in it. Not the funnest crawler. It looks good though
Fusion SE or Pro? The CI foams looked great from a performance aspect. My go to for a while is the Axial 10.3 CJ-7. Enjoy the scale over my line killa. Granted, it has the Pro 2300KV with 3 Bros Anti-foams and G13 Pro servo. 90MM DL's and some brass. Great video, Matt! Nothing like making lines having to work for them. Best wishes to you and the family.
@@johnbentley2926 fusion se. About all I use anymore it’s so cheap lol. I have a tf2 with the cj7 body on it and it kills some lines! For a scale truck anyway. I purchased the cj7 axial when it came out but let it sit for a while. Then they became hard to find for a bit and I sold it for a little profit so I let it go. I’d still like to have one eventually. I have the bronco version so it’s similar though. It’s modded out as well. Great trucks for sure!
Great job on the windows! I'm annoyed by one thing though, the chrome screws on the taillights. You got any clear red, and clear orange paints? just a tiny dab dude. It's such a beautiful truck! Peace!
Relax power ! Another rig with a Fusion !😊 HobbyWing killed the game. I'm waiting for my second Fusion to arrive and power my new Crawler. Even didn't waste my time looking at other brands...🙄 Which KV on your Toyota ? And what is the transmission ratio ?
That truck has given me thoughts that I really should take to confession but I think I’m just going to raid the kids piggy bank anyway and maybe snag a catalytic converter or two and get myself one before I do my walk of shame down to the church.
What a good video. No crazy hype train to ride, no loud music, just some solid commentary then letting the rig speak for itself. And what a beaut of a rig it is!
Well done, mate.
The loud music seems directed towards me 😂
@@LumpkinMumfins1 I appreciate it!

My favorite right now are the 24th scale Robskii chassis and the new Stinger Jr chassis from Desert RC for the TRX4m and Ascent 18.
Nice run! I’ve been liking scale more than performance lately, like you said, it’s satisfying to pull off lines.
