Thanks for the tips. I already added shock oil, but that steering mod by reversing the screws was awesome! Sometimes I wonder where my common sense goes!😂

Dude you have a new subscriber! This is the best video for beginners that I have ever seen. I have a SCX24 C10 but I have one of these that should be coming today! Thank you so much, and anything else you can share on these would be greatly appreciated! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for the sub! I am super happy to hear you enjoyed the video. The FCX platform is awesome. I have a few different FCX24/18 review videos where I go pretty in depth and a couple other upgrade and mod videos.
I just wanted to thank you for making these videos. I’m new to the hobby and your detailed, step by step explanations are extremely helpful. So many RUclipsrs seem to gloss over information like we all know it and many of us don’t. I was a little intimidated to start taking my RC’s apart, but I feel more confident after watching your videos. Thank you again.
New Sub , K5 on the way just what I needed to get started all the mods you mentioned , found you doing research for oil in shocks and grease in gears cause they are dry ... thanks for all , just what the doctor ordered lol
Great tips for the new guys, if the shocks are the same as fcx24 there's a hex head in the end of the shaft to get the spring cup off so no need to grip the shaft and potentially mark it. Really appreciate the effort put into your vids to help people get wrenching.
Update: I did the steering mod by reversing the screw direction. That went nicely and was effective! I put 15W oil in the shocks. I only put one O-ring on as two seemed to keep the lower cap from snapping on tightly. I had no leakage and just consider the other 4 tiny rings as spares. It also came with 4 thin metal washers, which I could not find any video referring to, so I used them on the upper cap as washer seals for the oil. Seemed to make sense? In the end, it all went well and the body no longer comically bounces all over the place! Thanks for the helpful video! It was really good!😀
I mounted the top of the shocks onto the frame just under the mid/front body mount spot. I get maximum LCG and max articulation. Also removed to springs and added really thick chainsaw bar oil. Works amazing.
I’m new to rc rock crawlers and I just ordered my first one. I’m definitely saving this video and doing all of this for later. I also saw another great mod of adding lead soldering wire around the wheel hubs to add weight and prevent tipping.
Just ordered this as my first rc car ever! It isn't even here yet and I'm planning mods for it already!! Cannot wait. Thanks for the vid as I planned on doing the shocks and wanted a vid on how to do it! Now I have some other mods to do too!
Glad you reminded me, I just did my orange one as we were speaking still have to do my black one no hurry, I did all of my power wagons and smashers V2
Just did the steering mod on my power wagon, now even more fun with those tighter turns! Thanks! (Oil went in the shocks a while back, from one of your other guides) 👍
Hey there my U-Tube friend, thanks for the video on these 2 small crawlers, there awesome. I've also subscribed to your channel too. Keep up the good work fella. Excellent stuff. 👍
Good video, man. I just put oil in the shocks a few days ago, but I didn't know about moving those screws as the k5 is my first FCX24. I also added a bunch of treal brass portals and wheels with lgrp swamp kings.
Awesome!!! I hope you are loving the fcx24 platform. It’s one of our favorites and many of the other videos we have for the butcher and max smasher can apply to the k5. Be sure to be extra awesome and give a sub ;)
instead of using pliers to take apart your shocks, take the top off and stick a 1.5 hex driver in the shock and hold the bottom piece while turning and you won't have to worry about damaging it.
Odd... I finally received mine yesterday after preordering shortly after they were announced. Watched a lot of videos on these in the interim and saw quite a few comments about ride height and lowering, so fully expected to do something... Pulled mine out of the box last night, set it on the ottoman and I'll be damned, but if I don't think it sits perfectly. Looks very proportionate to me. At full compression I do have a bit of fender gap, but at full articulation the tires come within a millimeter of the finder but without touching. Not sure why mine appears to be set up differently from others, but for now at least I think I'll leave the ride height as it is. Will be doing something about adding a bit of damping to reduce the bouncing, and of course, tires/wheels, weight, etc, but don't plan to go to crazy on this one. I see this as more of a scale trail truck type of thing than a performance crawler. So a few enhancements is in order, but I won't be trying to turn a heavy hardbody rig into something it's not. I have other more performance oriented rigs that are WAY more capable than this will ever be, so... 🤷♀
Awesome to hear yours is already sitting right where you want it! These little trucks are so much fun! A scale trail type rig is the perfect place for this guy.
That was a great video! Watched all 22 minutes! Love the steering screw mod! I have a Blazer on it’s way. Need to get some light shock oil, but have Dynamite Marine Grease on hand, and wondering if that can be used in place of Green Slime to leak-proof secure the O-Rings, or do you think it’s not necessary?
Huge thanks for the watch!! Mine have leaked just a tiny bit on 1 shock. Some green slime can’t hurt. When we redo them we will add slime. As for the marine grease, I’m not sure. Could work, try and let us know!
@@TheShopMiniRC Cool! I ordered 15W Silicone oil. Watching videos like yours, I learned not to just use what I had on hand, which was much heavier weight!
i love this video!! im very new and this is exactly what a noob like me whos afraid to take my rc apart! can you please show how to take apart the front and rear axels from start to finish? im very intimidated and i see no videos on fms on how i should do that. would be great!!

Thanks for the video. I just picked up the K5 yesterday and the little baggie of shock o-rings also included some thin metal shims that are about the same diameter as the shock bodies. Any idea what those are for?
I have asked around and no one really knows what the shims are for... best guess is something for the portals... I heard that some people felt there was too much slop in the portals or diff and maybe the shims are an option to try and fix that slop.... if you find out, let us know!
Thanks for this excellent demo. I have a question tho. I just got my first one which is a power wagon cab one with the same controller you seem to have. And lately it only wants to go reverse once in any given session and then never again. If I turn the controller off and on again it will once again only let me reverse once. I tried adjusting the trim and that didn’t help either. It wasn’t the brake function either. Idk what to do. Please advise
Seems very odd. I was going to say trim, but you said you checked that. Be sure the remote batteries are good. If they are, I wonder if it’s a problem with the remote trigger. Maybe see if someone you know has an FMS truck and you can try binding your truck to their remote and narrow down the source of the problem.
Awesome video and insight on some really good first mod upgrades for the fms K5! I did add on the brass wheel rings on all 4 corners. I also added a brass fms servo horn and so I removed the servo saver. Am I going to easily strip out the servo anytime sooner? Or am I ok for a bit?
if anyone happens to read this, my fms k5 blazer wont keep it's wheels straight, it only happens during crawling, but randomly it'll come out of a climb with it's steering way off and the trim buttons cant trim that much so i have to turn the car and radio off and back on and then mess with the trim to make it work, the manual doesnt say anywhere how to change your drag brake or change your steering servo orientation. i think i'm doomed already, i just started this hobby and i already cant do something simple lol
I am pretty sure the drag brake and steering trim is mentioned in the manual. You might have stripped your servo horn. I would start with a new servo and metal servo horn. Just be patient, we all started somewhere and stuff was hard for everyone at one point. Just keep asking questions.
That shouldn’t be the case. Something you can try if you are comfortable is to resolder the motor wires opposite or swap the pins in the plug and then reverse the throttle on your remote.
On the shock shaft? Is the shock shaft spinning even though you’re holding it with pliers? Try using a rubber band between the pliers and shaft and squeeze real Hard.
FCX24 Power wagon. More curious is son came over to drive, which actually why I tried as he has issue with double taping into reverse without going full throttle. Tried on his radio (same radio/truck though maybe 2 weeks newer) and first time trying it went to settings, tapped bind & turned off brake, so Thanks! easy fix for him.
I used a 1mm and the just worked it a bit. I tend to do that so that I can widen the hole in the direction I need to so it’s more accurate to where I want. Plus, I can always drill the hole bigger if needed.
I’m having trouble binding , I hold the bind button, turn on the truck and a after a few seconds it’s starts moving forward . Once I release the bind button it does nothing . The radio just keeps chirping . Help! Thanks
Your what goes completely to either side? Shift servo? If so, and you are wanting to get a neutral without clicking into gear, you’d have to mess with your dual rate and trim. Mostly trim.
