@@Frankredline So you agree the accent is a great platform? I want it to be my first 1/10 crawler but with only a limited number of upgrades so I’m trying to get a feel for what works and what doesn’t.
@@jonhowland4985 yes it is for the money it performs good just needs some tuning im going to remove the inner springs in the shocks to tey to get more flex in my test it had hardly no articulation. Going to put a little weight in the front axle to get the nose down. Ill address a few more things too in a vid coming up.
@@Frankredline that’s what I’ve seen works. Again SEEN. I want the treal overdrive front diff gears. Remove the inner springs at least in the rear. Losi mini springs soft front and rear. And eventually a fusion se 1800 kv setup to smooth out the slow crawl. I’ll keep watching to see what you do…cheers🍻
We definitely need the droop in our suspension in our area, Frank.
Yea sir im gonna work on it as we speak.
Two impressive rigs. Excited to see what that ascent can do with mods. Nice driving and great filming.
Thank you
Great video! I need to find some place like that to crawl!
The rocks are like sandpaper lol you cant really tell which tires get grip on this surface
Nice crawling 👍👍😎😎
Thank you
Great video. May i ask where you got that green toyota body for the gen 8.
Thank you. The body is from an axial scx10 its the honcho body
The part number for the body set is axial AX4025
Thank you for your response. Is it lighter than the original gen 8 body.
@@WarrenJR-11 yes it is
Thank you. I live 3 hours away. I would love to hang out with you guys some day.
The ascent has crappy flex zero flex
I agree stock is very limited but by removing the inner springs it does alot betterua-cam.com/video/YdNEnASGgBk/v-deo.htmlsi=9oV8KIuMavNXAxpm

Check it out after that mod its like night and day diffrence. I know it could be better but for free is not bad
I feel like you drove the accent like you wanted to justify to yourself spending the money on the gen 8’s modifications
The gen 8 will be retiring giving its mods to the ascent .
