    Your dog actually gives a good sense of scale with the SCX6. I always get a smile when she runs through in front of the camera.

    I installed the Treal overdrive gears in my SCX6 and it made a big difference in the rig's ability to climb obstacles that are close to its vertical limit. Just be sure to shim the diff when you install them so they don't strip out like the stock gears. 👍🏽

    I was thinking at the end. "Well I wanna see you drive back to your truck too." Then you showed the bonus clip. Cool video's btw can't stop watching them. Been wanting an Xmaxx for forever and now that I finally have the money I found out about these things. Now I can't decide.

    Those Prolines look like they work well. Nice video! I've been toying with the idea of getting an SCX6, especially now that there are more tires/parts available for them, and it does look like a lot of fun to play with.

    Looking good, are you running with just 1 batterypack for weight saving? I allways keep 3 packs strapped inside to have backup out trailing. Agree this platform is super fun and yes, so much scaled impression. Cheers.

  • @jerryvolpini7987
    @jerryvolpini7987 2 года назад

    The Hyrax still need to support a bunch of weight but they seem to grab better than stock. I think foams are going to play a big part in performance and suspension setup will be critical. It's funny but despite its size, the SCX6 is not much more capable than a lot of tenth scale rigs. I mean, where its tires and overall size is an asset, the weight and high cg seem to hold it back. I can't say for sure, I don't own one, but it really looks cool and gets over some gnarly trails. Would I like to pick up one of these beasts - in a heartbeat! Thanks for the video 👍

    I love this thing. If I could afford one I'd snag it but the wife would choke me out for spending that kind of money at one time on an rc. That being said, a real welded shorty stinger bar with an actual skid would look sick on that thing. I wonder if the normal brazed stuff would hold up with the weight of that thing. Make one that looks like a Poison Spyder BFH.

    My first time having overdrive…OMFG!!! It’s a damn “cheater rig”. It’s an “unfair advantage”. My Honcho’s old body was nothing but a big beautiful heavy load of bling that induced tipping. The Cliffhanger body and the Vitavon overdrive gear set are the game changers. My Honcho is precise, durable and capable. An RC version of an Ibex. AND with stock wheels and tires! Overdrive and an improved suspension and steering system makes them better. I think I’ll let the stock tires wear out before I get new ones. AND if I wait - new and better tires will be waiting for me. And I save money. Something you poor sobs need to think about. I think my modified Honcho Pro HonchoMacarra would kick your Jeep’s butt…😁
