BIG OLY - Traxxas UDR Tribute Build - Shelf Queen Finally Let Loose!!
This “Big Oly” full Vitavon Traxxas UDR Tribute Build has sat on several shelves before it finally reached me… I followed the build series around 5 years ago on an online forum, it was built with no expense spared and I promised myself if I ever seen it for sale that I would buy it!!
That day came last year and after a few phone calls and pulling in a few favours from friends, this absolute stunning car arrived at my door having not turned a wheel since it was built over 4 years prior. Personally I can only enjoy looking at a shelf queen for so long…. This beast was constantly begging to be let loose!!

RC MOA Rock Crawlers £100 vs £1000 - Can the FTX Ravine compete with the RC4WD Bully 2??
Просмотров 20921 час назад
This ones just for fun… Ever wondered if its worth paying more? Well, today I pit a £100 rc rock crawler (FTX Ravine) against the slightly more expensive RC4WD Bully 2 (around £1000) Both crawlers are MOA (motor On Axle) which allows both front and rear axles to be powered independently, which can be a huge benefit in tricky situations! The FTX has another trick up its sleeve with the added bon...

CROSS RC NT6 WORLDS BEST LOOKING 6x6 ROCK CRAWLER - UNBOXING AND RUNNING REVIEW
Not traxxas more vitavon
@@Johnny6ex definitely a lot of Vitavon on this build…
@TimsRcsurgery why doesnt vitavon yst build rc
@@Johnny6ex Vitavon are a machine shop I’d presume, there is a lot more research and development needed to build an rc than just make hop up parts. But you would never know, it’s not the first time a hop up manufacturer started making RC’s.. look at Tekno
@TimsRcsurgery i do know but most rc manufacturers are cheap skates
@@Johnny6ex we can only hope 🤞🤞
Truck was done by Oily Diffs - the vitavon importer - and I was the chap who made the fan system and the scale motor that pokes up through the hood on it :) Can't remember but he might have also had one of my scale interiors in it maybe???
That’s fantastic to hear from you 😃 I knew someone would pick up on the video sooner or later 😎 What a fantastic build 😍 I remember following the MSUK Forum build blog, I remember my jaw dropping in awe of how beautiful it looked, I remember pricing everything and at that point decided I’d just have to look at photos of it 😂 Couldn’t believe when I seen it for sale still in shelf queen condition!!! 🤩 I couldn’t pass it up 😎 But I’ve looked at it and admired it for too long, it was begging to let that suspension work 😂 I’ve added protection where I could, have the arms and drag links covered with clear protective film, and has taken no damage on the Astro track. It did have a few issues but I think I have them at least improved if not completely sorted… looking forward to getting it out again to hopefully see its full potential without constantly diffing out to the front that the pin was missing from.
Good video insaine truck build
What a absolutely beautiful RC. You knocked it out of the park building that one. The nicest custom RC truck I've ever seen by far. What a smooth running and jumping machine. I honestly don't think I could have bared to take the risk even scratching that truck.
I honestly can’t take credit for this one, if you search online for Traxxas UDR full option Vitavon Build you’ll be able to follow the complete process. It was the UK Vitavon stockist that created this, I followed the series and promised myself if it ever came up for sale that I’d have it…. My luck was in when a year or so back I noticed it on facebook marketplace for sale, still in new condition have spent its life on a shelf. I myself had it on a shelf too but could only look at for so long without running it 😃 I’m hoping I have the teething problems sorted now and looking forward to trying it again only this time with 4WD actually working 💪🏼 Here’s the link to the original build www.msuk-forum.co.uk/forums/topic/244076-traxxas-udr-full-option-build/
Oh' She's Purdy!
@@ShortbusGang admired it too long on the shelf, just had to take it out for a rip 😃
@@TimsRcsurgery Looks amazing.
Don’t worry bud,, we’ll edit that slip and fall out..🤣🤣🤣.. not ..lol
@@scottdashnaw2345 exactly 😂😂 He gives as good as he gets believe me, he won’t let this lay 😂😂
Hahahahhalol the first 15 seconds
@@jimk962 😂😂😂 Couldn’t resist
I go over mine with a fine tooth comb before it hits the track.. and sometimes I still miss something lol
It’s easily done, although I was sure that pin was in.. I’d such a job pressing the new one in, I’ve no idea how it came out 🤷♂️
No comparison 🤯 I was actually shocked tbf. Didn't think electric was that much quicker.
beautiful car 👌😎😎 9:07 😂😂😂🤦♂️🤦♂️
@@rcplaytime Hahaha… I couldn’t not add the fall in 😂
Nice. I did the same on a 6x6 gladiator build earlier this year
Love watching the cantilever setup work 😍
Gota ask u a question. On the bully moa 2. From the servo horn to the knuckle. Drag link. What is the legnth of the Drag link center hole to center hole. My some lost his and im truin to find a replacement
@@joeycrookshanks2868 it measures 54mm on mine, hope that helps
@@TimsRcsurgery awesome thank u
Seems like the tyres really let the ravine down a lot on those rocks. Great bit of fun and nice track 👍
Tyres, ground clearance, centre of gravity, motors/esc and the servos. Great for starting out and probably ideal for woodland trails but just not cut out for this sort of thing without a lot of mods
It sounds like you need to lower it, put weight in the right places, make it more powerful and make it work
@@RCs_trailed_outside_ 100%, I’ve seen these things do really well, but both rigs box stock in this video
Any update on the cantilever suspension
I asked Lee the other day, he just says he’s not had a chance to come up for air with work. The last message I got was “I can see the top of the hill now” So hopefully not much longer 😊
Hopefully not as I spent a lot of money on buying the donor vehicle very frustrating
@@rdrc4586 i understand your frustration but it’s out of my hands, it really is unusual for him to be so busy, but went from seeing him at every race or bash session to not seeing him for months at a time. Hopefully light at the end of the tunnel 🤞
HOPE SO
awesome 👌
think if the ravine had better tires it would be much better, great test 👍 looked a tough course 👍👍😀😀
I was going to swap wheels but if you do that then need to start changing servos, motors etc I’ve seen these things with mods carried out and they can perform, just thought I’d show an honest video, I just set the markers out and what you see is first attempt. I tried my best to get the ravine to crawl 😃
Been dealing with a static noise and green screen crashes all of a sudden on my Hero 9. Rolling back to firmware 1.70 was the ONLY thing that has worked for me so far! Give it a shot if you are having issues.
@@GooseADV never experienced those issues thankfully, have to say, I’m not very impressed with GoPro, there seem to be tons of issues
REVED RDX
That rear suspension setup looks great 😎👍👍
@@Eddy_zilla it’s a massive improvement over the stock setup, and I love watching the suspension do its work 😃 Thanks for the comment 👍
@@TimsRcsurgery I can imagine it helps a lot, my mini 6x6 setup the center always hangs up high. But the way you got here looks very planted but still has all the movement very cool man 😎🙌
Damn that number 5🤣Are you using the stock radio? If not, what are you using.
Using SkyRC Noble NB4, and that no.5 gate really made a fool out of me 😂😂
Hello. Good videos. They are great. The suspension is very nice. Gavin sell this suspension for others people or only for friends? I like to have this.
@@Lourenço_RC that are a 1 off at the moment but hopefully I can get someone to make them in the future
I wonder if NT4 would deal any better on those hill approaches. Can't decide which to buy
They are both great but the suspension definitely needs a bit of fettling for all out performance (it’s fine if you’re wanting to carry a load) Personally i absolutely love the 6x6
It Worked for me
Glad it helped someone 😃
Will you sell these in the future?
@@LeanderVanhulle I don’t have any plans to, a friend that owns a machine shop had said he was going to do a run of them but he’s been so busy that he’s not had time. If they ever become available, I’ll post a video. Wish I could help more but it’s out of my hand’s unfortunately
@@TimsRcsurgery it's very interesting. Even if I don't have yet a NT6 but I think I woke up late, unable to find it in Europe anywhere. I think I will have to order it from Aliexpress ...
@@bnjstyle mine came from Aliexpress too
That looks great I want this for my d5 check out Midland drift warehouse is my local track
@@collintrolan283 must have a look, thanks for the comment 😃
You should stuff the cavity in the front bumper with lead fishing weights
I have extra brass and have tried more weight in the front, it was too much and made it terrible for descending, it’s pretty much dialled now 😃 Too much weight isn’t a good thing, same as too little. I’ve since modified the front bumper as it was getting hooked on everything
Any idea of cost for the suspension? I like the canopy look...unless the cab has a cage...then nothing in the rear like the 1:1 6x6 competitions
Nice. You should work on a center brace. That keeps on breaking a lot. I don’t want to buy the long carbon fiber top plate brace.
@@j-1lokes294 to be honest I’ve never broken one and I’ve given this little car some serious abuse 😃
@@TimsRcsurgery oh wow. I run mine on 1/8 scale track and all the jumps are big not 1/10 friendly.
jo.... they are both awesome ! ! ! !
jo... both are awesome ! ! ! ! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
both are awesome ! ! ! ! are you going to do any ..... crawler competition with the 6x6 ???????
@@bombshell31600 we don’t really have any competitions here but I have a few markers to set out and a few high end all out crawlers to pit it against 😃
@@TimsRcsurgery thx -4 the reply 👍👍👍👍
That drift track looks great.
BOTH WON ! ! ! ! ! awesome ! ! ! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
What is your weight distribution?
Just a little brass on the outside of the middle axle, other than that it’s stock, slightly front bias but without the brass on the middle axle it was too nose heavy
@@TimsRcsurgery ok cool, for your terrain I would recommend pro line super swampers tsl in predator compound with 3d printed inserts of your choice...just make sure that whoever you get them from knows the weight of the crawler so they are not stiff... good luck!
For 700 US that's trash..
@@AlphonsoSnorkelli-dg2qb it is what it is, not much choice out there for a 1/4 Scale RC Dirt Bike
Also when i get double idle i always added fuel thinking it was leaning out............. o\ i got a reds 251 GTS on the shelf, need to blow up a few .21sp's first
@@blameusa7082 haha.. I felt bad about running this but once I made my mind up I couldn’t wait to get it on track 😃
10years old nowadays is new.
@@blameusa7082 feels like yesterday to me!! 😂
The old one sounds very good. A bit more running . But it sounded good to me .
@@ivan-vk7us still sounds amazing, makes me wonder if they have actually developed any further in almost 10 years 🤷♂️ The speed, power delivery and consumption is on power with if not better than what’s currently available 😃
An excellent video and very entertaining, keep 'em coming.

It would be rad if they made a true 2wd drift car

Thank you, I enjoyed that!
Glad you enjoyed it, should have spoken a bit more with you but didn’t want to get all up in your grill when you were here to have fun 😊 Maybe next time
That mugen is really really nice I’d nearly bet it was the nicest looking car there that day Certainly is the fastest
You’ve not seen my Mugen yet 😃
Was hoping to get up on Saturday, but other things got in the way. I've not been to Ecos for a while, but looks absolutely perfect for 10th scale too.
How about HSP FlyingFish?
@@Hiroshiii06 I’ve not tried one to be honest so can’t comment
@@TimsRcsurgery pleasee try it bro... Its cool car drift
@@Hiroshiii06 I’ll try and get my hands on one 😃👍
@@TimsRcsurgery kyyyyyyaaaaaaaa > . <
If you want more stick control, make sure not to use expos, but I would advise using somewhere between 30 or 40 percent expos on aileron, elevator, and rudder. Throttle leave without expos.
Lindo carro 🚗 🚗 🏎💥💨 bacana demais esses encontros ❤📽😍👍🏻💪🏼
fantastic racing dude 👍👍😃😃
@@rcplaytime thanks buddy, new setup is working a treat, still a few tweaks to do to try and settle the back end a bit, but I’m more than happy with it 😃
I would be interested in the suspension for sure
