Have you made a video on making the course? I've been looking through the back log and can't find anything on it. I'm about to start on creating a bit of a rock and hill climb course and looking for inspiration.
The design of them kinda look like the flubber stuffer inserts. The flubbers are directional inserts. I haven't tried them yet, I might in the future. I still love the squids so not much reason to change but I will give any of the printed ones a shot.
I have a set of flubbers in a set of 1.0 tusks for my scx24 and they're fantastic, although the market for 3DP inserts for 1/24th scale isn't too wide so I haven't tried any others. You can really feel the directionality when rolling the wheels around the bench. They've been great so far!
Same direction should solve the differential compliance. These styles are usually directional. You could also tape the outer seem before you insert them to lock them together and get the sidehill back.
Interesting concept. Tell ya what, I’ve tried several 3D printed inserts (Anti Foams, BAMF, YZZR, No Foams, & Squids). So far the BAMF inserts are my favorite. Keep ‘em coming! 😎
I am pausing here at 9:00 to say I am excited to see.......those look compliant! Not sure about the cross direction of the two inserts, but still excited! Anyway, keep up the fun!
Funny thing you have printed foams for Deep woods and my Deep woods came with 2 different size foams. I have been waiting for a response from Horizon who owns Duratrax. Mean while I have hair buns ordered. I been waiting 2 weeks to run the deep woods. The tires mounted better than any I have mounted but the foams are not Jconept.
If they're that good I would try to manipulate them and see if I could run him a different direction or something and you can obviously tell them are some really beastmode climbs
Jconcepts bodies are by far the most universally durable aftermarket body...Element probably has the most durable RTR body (he who cannot be named is pretty up there too)
If it were me, I would try a little firmer shock springs in the rear and match the inserts. Other than that, it traveled very, very, very well. 32:50 the rear drops easily right to the frame on one side.......leading to a potential role over situation. Another GREAT TEST!
@@CrawlerCanyon LOL....32:50 it acts very similar to the cantilevers you had before and there were no inserts then. But the split rings are definitely not the best choice for an insert. Solid would be better.
@@rccrawlingaddict207 I went back and watched it this time-- the shock isn't even fully collapsed, because the wheel fell off of the edge of the rock. When I said I didn't get the right entry to the line, I meant just that.
I'm also testing out some 42mm width 1.9's with squids in tusk, and had to cut half the stock tusk foam to fill in the gap. So far they're performing absolutely great. Need to ask the sl3d guy if he could make me some custom inserts for the wheels with the tusk. Hopefully. If not, I'll shop around and find someone that will lol
@NFE RC From the guy that makes the squids, he says it's better for the inserts to be too small than too big. About 2mm free play between the tire and insert is perfect. If they fit snug or too big, the insert will end up folding over in the tire and creating a flat spot on the insert/tire. As far as helping with width, 3brc makes tuning rounds that's meant for wider tires. I have a set of squids in some bfg km3's with 3brc tuning rounds in the sides to fill up the sidewalls a bit better. Need to order some more of those for the 42mm wide wheels too, just using foam to fill the gap for now.
@@TheAmericanUhate right, and the 4.75s are smaller at 109mm. I'm the one who tested the Hold inserts in Hunks for him and the reason Hunks are listed under the 111mm category.
Those are very interesting...I wonder how much he sells them for. I'm also curious as the reason for the 2 piece insert...very strange, yet still one of the stronger performers from the 'some guy printed them' category of 3d inserts despite the shortcomings (I can't help but remember the disappointment from the last set of 'some guy' inserts you tested).
Honestly two pieces so that less support material was being used. The sides stick out some so the whole print would require a lot of support. When rolling the inserts on a table, the direction doesn’t seem to matter, the zig-zag design just lets it compress.
I thought all of these were directional like you got to put them where you did that and then collapse on yourself I know flub RC there's are directional

Love watching toothless, great quick view I concur separate inserts behave separately with 1 insert the load can spread evenly. Keep up the good work.
The red inserts look very directional. They most likely behave very differently in reverse rotation.

I know a lot of guys Run 3D inserts in the front end and then foam in the rear end because of the bounce

The Jconcepts Bodies take a beaten and hold up great !
I just painted one for my Arrma Senton and it’s definitely great quality

I can print inserts. Man that's cool.. Great video as usual bud. Love vid. Thought the cops were at my house from background.. Man you got me...👍
Need to run the inserts the same way in each tyre cause you had em run different direction possibly cause the tyre to collapse on the outta edge?
hi, can you test these tires on a heavier rig. Maybe 7.5 -8lbs. just a suggestion. great review.

The springs are for the sprung weight, they don't know what's inside the tires. That rear drop is the outer half of the insert collapsing.

@@CrawlerCanyon I have an X that was never wrong either.
@@CrawlerCanyon The inserts don't know that the shocks are set-up incorrectly either.
I like them a lot 👌🏻
6:57 and here is my friend the Lizzard 🥰

Im having same issue with the hunks 😂 a 4.75 insert sits small inside of them but added benefit is they sit sorta deflated and provide more traction 🤔
@@NFEzantiszar the Hold inserts fit the Hunks perfectly. They're a bit larger than the standard 4.75.

@@idiot_RC Both those are the same inner diameter and use a recommended 111mm insert.

Wonder if tuning rods would help them be more like one piece incerts

with your test you need to test the insirts in all directions to get a true results
Wait a minute here I thought they was designed to go a certain way by the bank I know they are just flub RC shows there's how they are directional
@@Gibsonlife573 Thats what I thought but he fliped one around so it was not a true test
hi will one half kind of fit the OE tire from the e SE?
I wouldn't think so. These are maybe ~20mm wide, and while skinny, the Pinseekers are 30-something.
I thought all of these were directional like you got to put them where you did that and then collapse on yourself I know flub RC there's are directional
I’d like a mailing address from you. My friend makes inserts and he would like to send you a set.
send me an email to the crawlercanyon at gmail address and we'll sort it out
