NOTE: if you commented no thank you on previous videos I will consider that opting out of the giveaway
Great video, thanks for bringing us more info on these axles, and as an enduro owner, even more excited about the possibilities...
sparc drive should stop taking LSD and build one ucking tripper
@@CapeCrawlers thank you for the video it was very informative.
Big money no wammy.. Winner winner Chicken dinner
Please select me to win these axles. I have just gotten into this hobby for 1/10 scale crawling to help with stress and anxiety with my line of work. Law enforcement has gotten difficult in our world, and this helps keep my mind off of the job and away from negativity. Thanks for considering me. Adam does things right by making videos to include his son. Way to go. Great dad!
This takes rc crawling to the next level. It’s great how this hobby is growing by average guys at home coming up with cool stuff like this.
Hands down some of the coolest technology to hit the crawler world, awesome that this guy is a one man show as well!
Wow! Awesome idea….Hopefully they will be able to bring prices down as manufacturing picks up, would love to have a set!
Wow, what a revolutionary product is this?!? 😮 I think that the real revolution is the precision torque vectoring which allows you to steer more easily by locking the wheels inside the corner!
@Capecrawlers Hi man, I saw a notification telling me there was a comment from you but I can't see it, did I dream it? 🤣😅
Really nice to see this kind of innovation coming to the crawler world.
Planetary gears are used on all large heavy construction dirt moving equipment with axles. They are incredibly durable given the forces put on them because the force exerted on them is evenly distributed over 3x the gears. That’s why a fully loaded dump truck can go up/down 45 degree hills without breaking. That’s why a scraper can gouge the dirt and fill a pan with relative ease at 20 mph in seconds. The force multiplication in a planetary gear setup has such a massive advantage over regular wheel systems. I love the fact the tank turn is incorporated into this ‘new’ RC axle.
Can’t believe that this technology is available for a RC crawler. Hands down the most significant axles on the market. They are not cheap but the tech is crazy. Well worth the investment.
These axles are gonna be the next revolution in crawling both scale and 1 to 1 applications. I cannot wait to get my hands on a set and give them a run on the rocks. Thanks for the awesome videos and great content. Keep up the good work and most of all have fun doing it!
These axles are absolute game changers the whole concept is so far ahead of the current offerings I would love to see them offered in multiple scales (seems to be a matter of time)What a great advancement Thank You Sean
These axles are going to be a huge game changer for the RC crawling world. I really see a ton of potential for greater handling on wet and flat slippery surfaces especially on very steep terrain.
I've been waiting to see what is the next big thing in RC crawling and I'm so glad to see it on your channel. This is going to be a game changer! Thanks for making it possible for someone to get a set of these axles.
Thanks for watching!
Torque Vectoring is considered a really nice bonus in 1:1 supercar and hypercar terms, so having it at 1:10 scale is just incredible.
Super impressive tech and so happy that it came to rc crawlers frist! Just seeing how those setup works is the biggest thing to happen to this hobby since this introduction of 2.4 gig radio's, esc and lipos combined.... biggest thumbs up that I have ever given. Thanks for sharing your videos with us.
Amazing ! 😳
This thing can make your truck rotate around its center, like a tracked vehicle.
RC crawlers competition rules have to be written again. 😊
Nah, they'll just ban them immediately like they do any other products that further advance the hobby.
@@boduke9428 exactly!
It will give you a reverse penalty if any tire goes backwards, rules don't need to change.
Won't get outlawed, and probably won't get used much because the weight and size penalty. Most comp rigs have so much steering and overdrive ratio that turning radius is tiny. Blip it around
Kudos to Shaun Chu for bringing torque vectoring to the RC crawler world! Best of luck with your entrepreneurial venture.
I am afraid that I will now have to buy an Axial SCX10 II or an Element Enduro to try this innovative tech out for myself. Decisions, decisions.
I hope that these axles will eventually become available in aluminum or brass. I am fascinated by shiny objects.
It would be amazing if this technology could be brought to the 1/18th and 1/24th scale crawlers. I would buy two Sparc Drive axle sets today if I could use them with my TRX-4Ms.
what a cool humble guy that made these, great interview and and unbelievable you are giving some away. Good luck to everyone!!!
Absolutely incredible technology and would make any crawler a beast. What a standup guy for coming out and explaining how they work and letting you take a test run and also giving you some for not only yourself but a giveaway.
There will always be some people that have better ideas for future tools for people to use. This one is just fascinating to say the least. Good luck in the future development!
Very cool for comp!
Only change to pitch/marketing. If someone has 500 bucks for fancy axles, they most likely have fancy fancy radio. Market auto version as "auto", and manual as "tweak freek".
Thanks so much for the opportunity to win some of these axles, the technology on these are crazy and look super cool.
Its awsome to see new inovaters to rc, Its the stuff that will force the changes that we all will benefit from.......
This thing is insane! I hope this product will be a great success.
These game changers goes immediately to my crawler 'to-do-updates' list. Pure diamond!
Super awesome to see this technology coming into the crawler world. And things will only get more refined and smoother from here on out!
And less expensive as it scales I imagine!
It's brutal what they can do and all the different functions they can do in such a small space is simply extreme. They would go great with my Redcat Ascent Fusion. Love your videos.
greetings from Switzerland 😉
As always thanks for the content, Shawn. Only recently have I gotten into crawling, which I absolutely love, and your channel is my go-to on what's what. You've helped me immensely and I cannot thank you enough for that. And now you shown me these INSANE axles!? Absolutely incredible. Man, I love this hobby! And keep up the good work, it's seriously appreciated. 👊
Well done, game changing, exciting to see where this design goes
Love that someone is trying to innovate beyond what is out there. There is definitely potential in this technology to push the hobby farther. I agree that currently the price will stop most people from trying the axles hopefully like most innovations eventually there becomes a lower entry price point for the basic model.
Those axles are the coolest thing I've ever seen! That tech is almost unbelievable!
Mind blown. And a great reason to finally get an ecto! Thanks for covering these amazing axles!
Congratulations on taking an idea through to a production worthy product, awesome work! Love seeing original designs and this very innovative!
Amazing tech. Full scale tech being used on RC stuff. I love it! When I was younger, I learned how mechanical things work by working on RC stuff. As I get older, I enjoy learning and wrenching on these things without having to lay on my back under a full-size rig. Put my name in the mix. I would love to give these a try!
This is amazing, great stuff Adam.... That's awesome you made this video and met with Shaun. I hope this video takes off for you!
These axles are game changers of the future standard for crawlers. As always the tech will have to catch up to be better priced for the masses. I will be getting a set for sure.
Those axles look pretty sweet. I think these would be great for a pre-runner or KOH type of build. Nice video and I'm glad we finally go to see what the hype was about.
This is what I thought about as a kid growing up in northern NH. An open diff always seemed stupid to me. I understand why you need in open diff on a regular car, but this is a game changer! Thank you for sharing!
Awesome video! Can’t wait to see some in person!
These axles look awesome! I love that you got a chance to sit down with the creator and his passion for the design shows. I am looking forward to watching the performance video next. Another good one Adam!
Those axles are so cool!! I really wish I could get my hands on a pair for my new build, they’d be so perfect.
These axles look awesome! The functionality and performance looks great. Looking forward to part 2 of the video.
7:54 JUST WOW. FINALLY.
Finally someone putting today real car technologies into our hobby.
I’m VERY GRATEFUL to Shaun CHU for his work.
I wish him a very great success it’s VERY interesting.
Thank you a lot for welcoming him !!
Big salut 🫡 to you twos, from southeast coast France 🇫🇷
ViNZ.
21:55 THIS IS GENIUS…
28:55 One more thing…….!!! Shaun you kick ass. 🤩 This is such an amazing product, I’m so happy to see that coming to our hobby!! And what about Drift cars…!! The potential is huge. And being an automotive engineer, I’m very impressed how that product is already so COMPACT and very functional… It’s only the V1 and already a very mature product… Fantastic work from Shaun.
Chapeau bas Monsieur 👍
Totally blown away I’m from Australia and just getting into crawling and I’d even pay for the shipping to have them sent over that technology blew my freaking mind mind away and I a follower of you channel I love your content mate keep it up and in Australia they would cost me about the $600 plus
I have a number of rc vehicles but just recently got into rock crawlers. Your videos are the main reason for that. You are always showing us the latest and greatest in an enthusiastic and positive way. Thanks for what you do for the rc community and thanks for always giving me new ideas for my builds. I can't believe how far this hobby has come since my first Tamiya Hornet back in the day lol.
Thanks for watching!
Thanks...this just cost me a lot of money. LOL. I know a lot of crawler guys like baritone simple, but I love the tech, and switches, and more options, and this just adds to that. But as I said...may have to get some axles and an Enduro now until they start offering some TRX options! Thanks for getting some footage on these things; I've been waiting!
I've watched this video more than once and this tech with these axles are pure genius!! I believe this will revolutionize not only RC crawling and racing but potentially the "real world" automotive industry. I will have to wait for price drops or second hand sets but The price is not too high for what this is, the advantages and "tunability" of this system are simply incomparable to ANYTHING in ANY market. Love your channel, builds, and everything about what you do my friend. You have strongly influenced several of my purchases and builds and I have NOT been disappointed yet! Thank You again, and please keep the amazing videos and inside info coming! Congrats on your well deserved success.
I think it is the concept and idea from the real car. ruclips.net/video/dkROmU9Bxbw/видео.html
These look amazing, I bet they'll work great crawling. Can't wait for part 2 of this video.
Game changer if you’re serious about your crawler addiction lol. I’m sure the video doesn’t do it justice. Would love to see the demo in person
Amazing tech coming our way, and of course brought to us by Axle's Dad!!
Great video and thank you Shawn for walking us through your new technology for the RC space!
These axles are sweet. Best thing out there. No need for dig. Thanks for the introduction and vid.
This is some of the best content on the internet! These axles look amazing. If I don't win, I'll have to save up and buy a pair down the road. Keep up the amazing work!
These are rad! Great technology. I am super interested to try them out. Thanks for putting together this video. Lots of great info.
These look sweet. I think the tech behind them is really innovative and it's cool to see that they can be designed and manufactured by a one man team from concept to reality. Definitely gonna have to check them out for my rig.
Love seeing the tech change and progress us all!
This is amazing stuff. Just finished my SCX III build with the dig feature and I thought that was cool this is next level x 3. Great content as usual keep them coming 👍
This is so crazy! Love these axles! I need some for sure 😊
Love these axles, your content is always amazing. These are going to be a game changer.
Very cool tech! I love to see someone with an idea make it come to life, especially something as cool as this!
These axles are absolutely gnarly. I don't comp, but I am all about vertical performance, and these would be an awesome addition to my new rig I'm building. It's crazy to think this type of technology is packed into a 10th scale rc crawler axle. Such a cool video showcasing these axles. I can't wait to see the build video on the ecto in part 2!🤙
Didn't see it covered but i wonder if they could be tuned to act like a dig unit. Still have steering but have the rear do the tank turn thing. Really cool they don't require another channel.
Ive got to say that i agree with your title 100%.Its crazy that he fit all of that tech into that small of a package without making them unuseable for rock crawling.I have seen the future and its called Sparc Drive ! unfortunately i will never get to experience this awesome tech unless i win the lottery.But theres always hope😊
I really like the concept behind this! Interesting..I would have to build a 1/10 truck for those axles..currently don't have 1
Great concept. From the usability standpoint they seem awesome.
Thanks and stepping out and reviewing these axles when other channels seem to be less interested perhaps due to their own interests.
I'm looking forward to seeing your next video. The hobby always benefits from new developments.
Cheers !
Absolutely amazing. Highly impressive. He really put an extreme amount of thought into these, coming at it from every angle and finding all possible ways that they can be utilized. Great bit of engineering.
Man this are a game changer. Amazing job Sean!
Great video, good info on the axles.
Very cool. Great to see some innovative advancement for 1/10 scale rigs. Appreciate the video giving the inside scoop on these.
Wow!!!!! Just another great advancement to the hobby and how they were able to squeeze all that in a small footprint and not sacrificing ground clearance. This is now on top of my when I win the lottery Wish list.
I love the concept, it's a great idea. I love it being in the transition of a fully locked axle to an open diff. Tank turn is a significant game changer
These look great! Nice to see someone not connected with a big company innovating! This inspires me to look at 10 scale options. I've only done 24 scale, but regardless of being able to afford these axles it makes me want to look at 10 scale. Nice job Adam, helping out Shaun and providing a platform to display the tech!
These are amazing! When I first saw these I thought okay cool they aren't for me, kinda gimmicky. But now I hope these make it big! I want some aluminum housings that have all these capabilities to keep it simple, but also the ability to tank turn with the wheels turned using extra channels. I'd also like to see the undersides smoothed out, the screws poking out like that are gonna hand up on lots of stuff. I'm super excited to see these in person!
It's always cool to see where technology leads the hobby to next. This is an amazing product.
That's awesome, they work great. That's going to make crawling much better. Enjoyed the video and thanks for the info. Love the channel
Alot of engineering evolved. Very cool!!
ok been doing rc crawlers for years now and these hands down are awesome. Owned many rigs and many styles of axles. These are going to be a gamechanger.
It would be really cool to see these on a rock racer and have 4 wheel steer too.
Always bringing the A-game!
Sincere thanks for what you and your son bring to this fine hobby!
That's some really amazing technology! You can tell they really spent a lot of time perfecting it. I love that it's all automated and you don't have to switch modes on the radio or other control module. The price is a little hefty but it's understandable given all the abilities/technology. I would love to get a set! 😁
Definitely a system worth trying. It had sold instantly with the tight steering capability of the axles. One of the things I hate the most when crawling is the tight turning. constantly having to back up to get the right steering angle approach.
The tight steering is so nice to have with these things
Thats out of the box thinking, what a great product which can only get better! These wil go on my upgrade list for my scx 10.2
These axles are def going to change the game for rc crawling to whole nother level. Cant wait to see what people do with them.
I think this is amazing i would absolutely pick a set up just to be part of the movement to try and get these into a larger scale production with hopes to bring the price down for those whom love the hobby but may not be easily capable of getting a set. What a cool design and hopefully we see them on a larger scale.
The technology in these axels could open up so many new possibilities in the crawler world. I might have to grab a set for my ecto once I see a few more people with them and some more testing is done. Amazing results in your video though!
This is brilliant, I really this is cool. And this video is really unique. Great interview for both of you.
Those are super cool! I would love to give those a try and see how they compare to traditional overdrive/dig/4ws setups!
This tech has so many possibilities in RC crawling and I'll wager racing as well. Im doing a crawler build now and getting my list of must haves. Was thinking a dig and 4ws but this would solve most all areas id run into and keep the weight down low. I mean, look at the extra mass that stays on the axles. Very cool to see this come about. Next year itll be everywhere.
That's some awesome technology. Every few years, something comes out that just moves the hobby forward. I'm assuming he'll eventually have a portal option.
Cool review 😎
Wow, thanks for showing us this absolute amazing innovative product, cant wait to see part two of the video 😊 Greetings from Germany 👋
I love the tank mode on these axles. Would love to try them on my current build. Sounds like they have wide list of features, and im all about the features!
As a car enthusiast and an avid RC Off roader, In my opinion, this axle is well over-engineered, for lack of better terms. It is like having a computer that controlling the speed and separates the wheel turn. It is the best axle I have seen by far in the RC world. I like the fact that when turning at a higher speed, it calculates the angle of the wheels at full turn to avoid flipping.
I think car manufacturers should adapt this technology to 1:1 models as nowadays, its all about technology in the car world.
These are sick. Can't wait to see how this tech evolves.
These will definitely be a hit in the full custom side of the 1/10th scene. It'll be nice to see the price drop a little bit. Lots of thought put into these and it payed off.
Those are exactly what i was dreaming of; I'm so glad that Shaun made it a reality. Great job!
Wow, what an incredible idea to run with and turn into a working product! So impressive! I'd love to start my new 80 series build with these... Here in Perth W.A.... And maybe one day be able to install them on my real 80 series 😀
Dude props for the interview, great to see the person behind the product, I would have never guessed that the idea came from the real world into RC, amazing stuff! 😮 would love to test these on my Zuul
O my goodness, these things r a trip! I've already shared this w my crawler buds. The moderated steering would b a huge help w my driving cause with my being autistic I regularly mistake & turn to much for my speed & then obviously end up flipping. Definitely keeping an eye out for that next vid!
This technology is amazing and much respect to the creator of these axels I can't wait to see how they really perform in the next video or find out first hand by winning that free set
The potential applications for all four wheel vehicles are mind blowing. Stoked it came to RC first!
