Now this is how you do an unboxing!!! Thanks for all the details. This answers a lot of my questions. I’m be saving and sharing this video if you don’t mind.
Best unboxing video ever! I hate unboxing videos. Who cares what's in the box? But this is different! A full detail breakdown, strip, and description of all major components. Now THAT is info I can sink my teeth into! All other UA-camrs should take a lesson and learn how to really do a proper unboxing. Thanks for taking the time to really dig down deep and show us the guts of this thing, and share your thoughts on the finer details.
Just picked up a yellow one as my first crawler. I really appreciate this total breakdown. It makes me more confident digging into mine. I’m glad the new ones come with metal gears in the portals. Looking forward to doing some simple mods to get the center of gravity lower. I might stretch it a bit as well. I’m not into competitions so I don’t need to go nuts.
Huge thanks. Definitely check out our other reviews. The new FCX18 LC80 is amazing. Also the FX118 is the best rtr you can buy right now. We have a review and deep dive on both.
Awesome! Such a great video. Thank you! Got mine a few days ago and have been playin'. So glad you did the tear down so I can understand every piece of the truck! Thanks
Your channel has been a major influence on my RC journey. The cheap steering video. Moving the drop axel screws from the front to behind the axel is a good call. Ive been driving the FMS max smasher for 2 mths now, love the little beast. I modified the body with damage, rust, dents,and a new paint job. Frame is faux painted also. I oil filled the shocks. Also relocated them, and the battery to even out the weight. I have full metal axels, hub hex, and metal high clearance arms coming soon. Im not bragging just letting you know how you inspired me. Ill send pictures if your interested. Im counting my change after paying bills to order a Mini RC Logo classic tee. Keep the videos coming, and the RC spirit alive.
Man.. this is amazing. I love to hear this! This is exactly why i started the channel. If you get a shirt, definitely send me a photo of you and your rigs!! (I would love to share it, if you dont mind) At some point I want to do a "The Shop Mini RC Swag Photo Contest"! lol
Great video, thanks for the breakdown, I learned alot from it, I have been looking for a video like this, where I can get how the scx gear connection works but I do now, thanks.
Back watching again I did get mine FCX 24 power wagon the red one, just got done putting the O-rings in my shocks, the two little ones both gone outside then put the little cap back on, but I put some green slime on the O-rings before I put the cap back on,I only have 20 weight oil I think is a little too thick but good for now
I love the back story on the truck!! I'm from Louisiana, so the license plate stickers caught my eye immediately, lol. We have mudfest here. But I'm not sure there's a whole lot of rock crawling involved with that lol. Especially in the swamps of southern Louisiana.
@@TheShopMiniRC Definitely!!! And even though you'll probably never read it or have to say it again... The proper pronunciation for that City is man shack, 😂😂. I had read ahead and knew when you got to that you weren't going to be able to pronounce it, 🤣🤣. I love that you've been putting out longer videos. I like the commentary as well. I'd love to see you guys post more outdoor crawling videos in the mountains. I thought that was a pretty sweet spot
Yep. Grew up in LA too, so the tag decals caught my eye when I first saw this truck a few days ago. And rock crawling isn't a "thing" there. In fact, about the only rock you'll find in the vast majority of LA is gravel. But mud? Yes! We do have mud! So, mud trucks are more the thing there for sure. And while I agree with the video about the scale in general, when commenting about the tire/wheels, remember that this is a mud truck and those are meant to simulate using rear farm tractor tires and wheels as has been done quite a bit in the mud bogging world and is one of the visual things I really enjoy on this truck. Really interested in this truck but concerned about the durability of the plastic diff and portal gears. Matt over at his 2FM RC channel already had a rear portal gear fail at the axle pin cutout, after just filming a couple of mild running videos and very little use. Think I'll be waiting and observing the aftermarket and manufacturer parts support on these before buying one.
Awesome video! There are tons of FMS/RocHobby/EazyRC 1/18 trucks (15 different ones so far, if I am right) and Hobby Plus (CR-18, CR-24, 10+ models)) and RGT 1/24 (the ECX Barrage and the Enduro 24 are only rebrands) trucks out there, and all of those have this type of shock mounting system. I do not say I like it, however, it is out for much longer than the SCX24 exists. And this is why they probably used this system. BTW: Those shocks are quite nice, you can make a "oil filled shocks" mod (made 2 vids about this, EazuyRC and Mini-Z), and those oil filled custom shocks work awesome, in the previous models shocks, but those new ones look even better.
@@TheShopMiniRC I had big problems because of this finding shocks for my RocHobby Katana. Tested a ton of shocks, but mounting some of those was quite difficult. SCX24 never worked because of their much too thin screws. All (!!!) other trucks use M2 or even M2.5 screws. That is a totally new thing, such tiny screws, and Axial did it. Do not know why they did not use 2 mm screws as nearly all others, this would have made life much easier. So you only cannot use the SCX24 shocks for the others, but the shocks of the others for SCX24... Meanwhile there are even upgrade shocks out for those FMS/RocHobby/EazyRC trucks, but they are not really good, have them, don't like them. Axial is the "last", newest of the micros (ok, the RC4WD 1/24 is even newer), all other 1/18 - 1/24 platforms have been out longer, ... we should complain why Axial did not simply use "usual" M2 screws (with 1.5 mm hex) ;-) Check the shock test video for those trucks, meanwhile some mor options of shocks are out: "RocHobby Katana, EazyRC Patrion / Patriot, FMS Toyota LC80 1:18: Upgrade Shocks"
Hey :) Your channel won me over the FCX24. Recently got it and super happy! Got a question about the USB charger or charging in general. After one day of use the battery was not working anymore. Multimeter reading told that one cell was very low voltage and the other far to much. 2.2v and 4.5v. Saw many times on UA-cam that the USB charger shipped with the cars are bad and prober chargers should be used. Got a new battery (but different plug) and an LiPO charger (ISDT 608AC but it was defect from the start lol, will be replaced). So the situation is that I am unsure about the new battery if I could use it with the USB charger or if the charger kills that battery too. What is your charging routine with the Mini RC? What products do you use for FCX24 operation? If you haven't done already, a wholeheartedly request of a Fan of this channel, to create such video covering of what to do when a new Mini RC user. If using the included USB charger is a good battery or not. What to use instead, how to recognize when the cars battery is dead and what to do then, to let it rest or immediately charge it. How to check if the cells are even balanced or out of whack. What to do when to do when the cells are unbalanced and if it can be saved with the USB charger etc. Wish you a fantastic day :)
I literally typed out a paragraph twice the size of yours explaining stuff and I switched windows to get a link and it lost everything… lmao soooo. I will make a video for you. ;)
Great video to watch while I wait for mine in the mail :) Adjusting the wheel base by clocking the portal position is very interesting, do you think that will also work on the front? Or does the CVD and steering no longer work at an angle?
Love the body (as in my Atlas 6x6). However, thinking of putting a low cage onto this chassis instead of the heavy and high (but pretty) Power Wagon body would make the FCX24 an even much better crawler, and if you'd swap out to true differential gears, even an awesome rockracer or rocbouncer... because of the 2-speed and super high vmax.
Hello I'm new here. Thanks so i may have some questions. LOL I agree with you about the size . but what bugs me most is the way the body snaps on and off. I feel like it's going to break. any ideas for new body mounts? THANK YOU
Some have done body mounts. I can tell you, after taking off and putting in the body hundreds of times, it’s not going to break. The key is to just make sure no wires are in the way getting pinched. I preferred his body mount over some stupid body clips though. Also, WELCOME!!!! I hope you subbed and enjoy your time here!
Can someone tell me what type of plug is on the battery? It's not JST of PH2. I have nothing like it and would like to make an adapter so I can use my real charger rather than the little thing that came with it. Just received mine and looking forward to testing it out. The body clips are a bit of a PITA, but guess I'll get used to them. Seems like every RC I get has a different plug! Geesh! I wish we could standardize these things a bit so I didn't need twenty different adapters, and/or so limited on the batteries that will work. Also need to know the battery plug type so I can try to find a spare with the correct plug. I HATE trying to swap plugs on these tiny wires!
@@TheShopMiniRC Oops. Must have missed it in the video. Thanks! Yeah, with the larger plugs like Deans, XT30, XT60, etc., changing the plugs is easy. But, I don't have good luck when dealing with the various mini plugs. So, for these one off applications I tend to just make one adapter for my charger and use whatever the truck and battery come with. Of course, adding spare batteries can be a pain. So, I may end up just doing what you suggest and change the plugs.
@@TheShopMiniRC I got the blue one and I’m thinking I’ll probably leave it as stock as possible- it’s kind of cool as is! Especially for how I drive 😂.
We use the Lectron Pro ua-cam.com/video/wSDPKRZGO10/v-deo.html But really, any hobby grade lipo charger will do. You just want to be able to balance charge.
I’ve only seen 1 person (2fm) have issues so far. But yes, plastic gears is not ideal. Even the scx24 has plastic gears. The metal upgrades should be coming soon though. (I hope)
I've never seen it held up against the real thing for scale comparison before. It's pretty funny! But the price is 1/24 scale, and it's a lot of fun whatever it is!
@@TheShopMiniRC ok thanks for that, now i looked everywher online and im still not finding an adaptor to plug right into a charger, can you drop a link to something i can take a look at perhaps?
I like the body detail. But there's just something about it that's not grabbing me. Maybe height to length ratio? Not sure. With the two speeds, it'll appeal to those with out the budget to have multiple rigs for crawling, bashing, etc. Just doesn't make me think "Oh yeah, must have".
I just use a toothpick with a little bit of green slime with a toothpick you can get it right into the cylinder of the shock lubricate them walls set to go
Rad, I’m just getting my feet wet with this stuff. Got my self and my daughter a Dead Bolt (me) and a Danchee Ridge rock (her). Now I want to get my old gold pan RC10’s running again!
The new version comes with steel portal gears and for $16 you can get the metal transmission gear set. Pick up the metal diffs for the max smasher and lock them
Hi guys! Please accept our apologies for the confusion; there was some miscommunication within the FMS team. It's actually one of five replacement kits that were distributed at random with the first limited orders.

They are only “splash proof”. You can always open and conformal coat them.

whats shock length? compressed and extended
center eyelet to center eyelet is 41mm ext and 28mm compressed.
