Fusion Mini-16, UTB18 Capra First Drive At ACP1.
This video has lived on my phone for months. I have been over-occupied with flight training. Yesterday I finally had a day off so I wanted to put this it up for you.
This was my first time running a Fusion Mini-16 in my UTB18 Capra. This will probably be the Go-To motor going forward. Its that good.

(Not RC) Grounding Trail Runners

The link below is to a video that describes what grounding is and the benefits. I need good shoes because of the terrain we traverse while RC rock crawling. Previously I tried Merril, Salomon, and Oboz hiking shoes. Oboz are my favorites so far. This new brand is called Flux. They are constructed differently but so far I like them. I will update the description later to let you know what I thin...

1.9 Capra Upgrade. ServoAF Draglink Install
Просмотров 573 месяца назад
This will stop the major of damage to my steering components. I have not experienced any damage on either my Ryft or Bomber since installing this draglink on them. They have even provided protection during severe crashes. The link is normally solid but will give way due to the springs ahead of the point where damage would occur. I do not expect it to reduce my steering effectiveness at all duri...

Capra At Red Rock - September 2024
Просмотров 4143 месяца назад
This is the test run after replacing multiple damaged parts from the last time. Upgrades include a Treal front axle housing, Protek 370TBL servo, Vader skidplate, and upgraded shock bands. I found one issue regarding the dig servo but it did not affect the test drive. A new dig servo has been installed since the filming of this video. Everything is operating as it should now.

(Not RC) Fiero Went Complely Dark While Driving
Просмотров 705 месяцев назад
Two blocks from my driveway the entire car went black. It was engineered without power steering so it drove normally even after the motor turned Off. I was able to deadstick it home only coasting. What are the chances of that? 😜👍 Thank you God! This could have happened in a dangerous place or a complicated time and without the necessary tools to fix it. Instead it was super easy and cost nothin...

I like the idea of the elastic strapping. I ended up finding UV resistant rubber bands. 😃
Exact video i was looking for thankyou
I must commend you on your driving lines. So many “RUclipsrs” just bomb thru, wheels falling off rocks, diff hanging up, no approach setup, etc… it’s relaxing watching you pick lines and just crawl thru. Thank you, Sir. 😀
@@StuNod-RC That is probably the best compliment I have had about my driving because it is coming from someone who understands what was happening. Thank you 🙂
Late to the party but how did you make these servos work i was told stocj electronics only take 5 wire servos?
@@hichamelkhoury7087 I ended up using the stock servos after all. Disregard what I said in the video.
for esd protection, right ? ... right ? I'm not a fan of thinfoil people.
@@iljarukin5887 Research what grounding is and what it does before jumping to conclusions. I included a link in the description in case you care to know what it is. If that's tin foil to you, move along. This video wasn't for you.
@EXPIOWA I didn't read your description first, but now I looked into it. I agree that a build up of static electricity can happen and may have some negative impact. Still, how often do your hair stand up or you feel a spark discharge after lying on a woll blancket ? Maybe once a week ? To be honest I did not look into the study they are referencing. I'm sceptic already, because they are showing thermal footage to support their claims which has nothing to do with health. They didn't show any data in the video. Also some of their claims are blantly false: * the earths surface isn't charged negatively, especially not because of lightning * radicals do not consume electrons, they have unbound elektrons, so they react violently with almost everything * electrons do not provide energy by themself (as the author claims beeing transferred from the earth to out body), a potential differential i.e. difference in electron density is the actual energy. by grounding this potential is effectively destroyed. that's probably enough arguments for now. I'm not completly refusing the idea, but I find that it's based on questionable explanations and the effects are minor at best.
I bought my redcat gen 7 like 6 years ago so me and my son can play together I have had short course trucks but this was my first crawler, I absolutely love it, The mods never end!

Very well fitted fenders👍 Good job
Never went brushless eh?

That was helpful for a newbie. So for that, I appreciate the work you did thanks. Sounds funny I’m 60 years old!!!! newbie. Lol.

Quick question: Did you use the stock pinion from the Capra? thx!
@@angelikakurowicka7182 Yes. It seems to be fine. I was hoping for a little more top end but I don’t want to give up the perfect slow crawl or cause it to run hotter with a bigger gear.
thats crazy! im for sure buying more rubbermaid 😀
Sir i have a very similar model, with a very similar problem, i'm not even an USA citizen but you save me, and thanks to you i was able to fix it idk if you will read this, but thank u and i love u ❤

I have the Holmes hobbies 380 Revolver V2 2000KV and a AM32 ESC and this system is also very powerful. The ESC have also a grazy low speed control and the motor is a 14 pole with extra magnets for a powerful dragbrake. The torque is amazing from the Revolver. I can't stop the wheels spinning whiteout breaking the axles.

You should not be moving the wheel that much.

@@shawnrichardson118 I used to except for my TRX. That one never breaks. I think I finally have a mostly bulletproof configuration now.
I actually did a 3.8 L supercharged conversion to one of these when I was younger. It was a bad little beast. I will be subscribing. I do a lot of 1/24 scale, RC crawling
@@shawnrichardson118 I plan to do a 3800SC swap after I get back to my pilot job. As far as 1/24 goes, I have done so many videos on them that I ran out of things to talk about. They are a lot of fun when the snow is flying outside.

Hey buddy appreciate your work on the channel. U have another Redcat Gen7 fan here. Anyways do u have any recommendations for brushed motors? I currently run a Hobbywing QUICRUN 1080 G2 with a CrawlMaster Sport 550(13T). Anyways I was wondering if you recommend any type of motor step up? Thanks in advance
Man! That fiero looks really nice!! A ground will cause issues for sure.
@@Stille1970 Thank you. That wire must be the main feed for the fusebox. It turned the whole thing off. It is definitely not a garage queen. I don't care that it is old. I like it and drive it all the time.
@@EXPIOWA I’d drive it to.
Good crawling again. I love to watch you run the Gen 7
@@Stille1970 Thank you. It gets incriminatally better all the time as I learn new things. It was my first crawler and it is still my favorite.
Wat is that
The Gen7 baby!! Heavily modified
@@jessehinson7050 That’s right. 😎🏁 It is one of the baddest Gen 7s on the planet.
@@EXPIOWA I love mine. You have any videos showing your build/setup?
Do you have P/N for the white body with optional wing? Or where it can be purchased??
@@stevencarter689 Part Number MZN193. There is one on eBay right now for about $50.
Skewed reflection of a vehicle/motorcycle/ bicycle head light on the cam lens? Possible spiderweb, drifting down, close to the lens, catching light from the house? There seems to be a jog in the line and it doesn't look like it's quiet projected for a central point, in a consistent arc. Like a beam from a lighthouse would be. Neat mystery.
@@wingnutbert9685 I forgot I even posted that. Lol
@@EXPIOWA Need to get Scully and Mulder on it..... LOL!
Nice idea! Does it cause binding when maximally compressed?
@@duard8652 None at all. It doesn’t compress much. Even if it did the foam plug is easily compressed as well.
Good idea thanks for sharing
it's capacitor not resistor
Looks like you bent the lower arms, that will also exacerbate the clearance issue unless you use longer lower arms to rotate the pinion away from the wishbone, or go 4 link.
@@JamesMcNamara-j1g I had to bend it that severely to make it equal the length of the stock piece. The pinion angle is unchanged.
well sorted. Shows our insanity building these things. Never-ending. I have no desire to seriously compete because it will cost me more time and money that I am already exceeding my plans. Bought and built a very mild build of an Everest 10 for my 10yr-old nephew. Just finished a build of a Gen 7 sport for my old son's best friend. It now has a bunch of pro parts and other stuff to make it capable, but not a serious rig. About to do a very mild build on a Gen 7 pro for my brother-in-law so he can wheel with fore-mentioned nephew. Technically we don't have a lot of RCs except we kinda do. I am about to embark on a quest to make all the old toy-grade RCs we have from when the boys were growing up into somewhat hobby-grade RCs. Servos, receivers, ESCs, new motorvation, etc. Nothing crazy, but lets explore what more these can do because the only reason we advanced to bigger/better stuff was because we exhausted what those were capable of.
@@douggregoryHOTMotorsports I have wanted to take a toy grade boat and update it with big electronics and motors. Best of luck with your plans. Get it on video. : )
Thank you for this, I'm super new to the 1/24 club and very few of these parts have any instructions or tutorials! Super helpful 🤙🏽
@@SrslyPanda8 You are welcome. I have done a video of about everything you can do with an SCX24. I ran out of content. : ) Let me know if there is something I haven’t covered that you might like to see.
@@EXPIOWA well I'm subbed now so I'll have to dig in! Much appreciated.
Awesome climbs.
Thank you. That Gen 7 is the first crawler I ever bought. It has evolved over the last 5 years into what it is today. It has won the last three competitions that I entered it in at CrasnN Bash Hobbies in Cedar Rapids. I would like to travel with it and see how it stacks up against other comp trucks around the country.
My first crawler is a Gen 7 also I find myself crawling with it most of the time because I find it gets better the more I do to it. I have a few shorts on RUclips of the Gen7 and an ecto.
Those wheels are sexy
@@JamesMcNamara-j1g Gotta love slotted mags. ; )
I have been looking at doing this to mine.
