I Torture Test the NEW CHEAPER Vanquish VS4-10 Fordyce
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 окт 2024
- The Fordyce Trail is 19 kilometers (or 12 miles) of truck punishing trails in the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range. Will the @VanquishProductsMedia VS410 Fordyce RTR be able to endure that distance? I run the actual distance of the Fordyce Trail with the VS410 Fordyce to put it to the ultimate challenge. Will it survive? Watch to find out!

SBG out here running a half marathon with 30 lbs of camera gear and batteries. Absolute madman
It was well worth it!
Yes!19miles?thats a serious multitask marathon there!
What in the world is a kilometer?! This challenge is making me sweat from here…
19 kilometer, 11.8 miles, that's a lot to walk
What is that distance in Chevy small blocks?
If you're familiar with The Office, survivor man episode, I was waiting for Matt to say he had fashioned his pants into a hat. hahaha omg..19 Kilometers
I'd be scared of getting lost out there evin with a phone. Awesome mini movie📽🏆so cool you brought us along❤❤
I can't post an original comment, so I'm going to respond to Josh's post. You better let the community know when you're running the real Fordyce!!! That's my backyard! Would love to join you for the adventure❤
That truck has been SBG19K certified trail ready. Worthy of the sticker sheet. Great video Matt 👍
It sure is! Thanks for watching!
I really like what you did here, very inspiring way to show the quality of the Fordyce and great endurance yourself 🙌🏼🤘🏼
Killer video Matt congrats on the challenge and completing it. My favorite part is watching you start out kinda winded then move into a runners high state lol beautiful area no doubt
It was really challenging but definitely worth it!
I'm not even finished watching but just had to tell you... LOVIN" IT!! Great content
Yay! Thank you!
I think we need a 19k trail run test for every new release from now on 😆 Awesome video.
I would be soooooo fit! And I'd have to quit my day job!
@@scalebuildersguildmove to Muskoka, run R/C tours for tourists on the trails :)
Pretty impressive. I'd be interested in seeing a teardown. Great video as always.
Great idea!
Man that’s an out of the box torture test. Love it and my hat is off to you good sir.
Thanks!
Matt that was fantastic! I truly love watching your videos, you have a great sense of humor and truly enjoy your job! Thank you for doing what you do for the RC world.
Appreciate your support and thanks for watching!
As a trail runner and an scale rc driver, it’s cool to see the two hobbies combined. Could be a whole new category of competitive scale rc. Great video
It was definitely a challenge, but so much fun! Thanks for watching!
Love the long trail runs. Took my Gen 8 on a 4 and half hour rock crawl with a group of buddies 2 weekends ago. Surprising enough even with hard rock crawling nothing broke, battery was only half dead. its amazing what Rc crawlers can do.
That's awesome!
If this is what you meant by switching up the content formula when a new truck comes out, then I'm all here for it.
Stay tuned! Glad you liked it!
what an adventure. a testament to the strength of the vs4.... rtr. never thought i'd see the day.
A neat challenge you set. Nice to see an RTR can withstand that kind of punishment out of the box. Impressive that it can handle that much constant use. I’d love to see a follow up with inspection in the studio after you recover.
Great idea!
@@scalebuildersguildthat would be a cool video and a break down what all you had in the backpack. And maybe what all maintenance you had to do afterwards.
If that isn’t a testament to the quality of Vanquish, then I don’t know what is. Props to you for walking 12.4 miles with camera and RC gear. My legs and feet hurt just watching, but it also gave me inspiration to get out and do some hiking with my rigs.
I was pretty sore the next day, but it was totally worth it! Go for it and get out there!
I’m usually out for 5-6 hours at a time with my Gladiator. I have a 2nd battery tray and run dual 3300 3S batteries and don’t have to change batteries until I’m done.
We should definitely do this here in Norway when you visit, great challenge!
Definitely!
Great job! Love doing the weekly long runs like this and test a platform out.
My friend and I do a mount to mount here in the UK, its between the obelisk at Ham hill to St Michael's mount montecute. We cover it as a round trip of about 8k
That's great!
Congrats to both yourself and the Phoenix for crushing that challenge, awesome!
Thank you!
Wow wow wow!!!! What a cool vid!!! Hike and drives are my favorite. My wife and I go on lots of hikes and backpacking trips. The longest I have taken a rig on is just under 12 miles. Man if I lived closer to you, we could go on long drives!!!🤘🤘🤘
🤘 It was a lot of fun! Thanks for watching!
Matt, loved watching you light up in nature and continuing to sing words of appreciation for it beauty… all the while playing with your favourite toys. Awesome. Sending you positive vibes from Australia.
Thanks man! It was a great experience!
How wonderful! You are probably the first to implement this idea on youtube! Congratulations on your fitness with the endurance of the rc crawler.
Thank you! I'm going to do more things like this, for sure!
Chris and Greg with the detailed look and sublime running videos. Matt runs it 19km because its named after a 19km trail all while still being a polite Canadian the entire time. I would wager you actually drove it further than everyone at Vanquish combined.
It was a lot of fun!
That’s cool the girls were nice.I get laughs and giggles when I run into people on the trail with my rc’s. Great vid. 👍🏼
They were really sweet! People are always quite curious when they see me.
12.4 Miles is impressive. Good Job Vanquish and outstanding Job Matt for going the distance. My only issue is now I have to have one. I love that body. Great video, I enjoyed watching.
Go for it!
That was a fun vid, nice job Matt.
Thanks man!
Well Matt? Got to say I really enjoyed it. I am extremely impressed with the vanquish. 19 kms. Nicely done. Here for all of it. Great run
Thanks!
You know this is really impressive. Both the truck and the way you put the video together thanks for taking us on the journey.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome video. Not many 30 minute videos where I don't skip at least some of it but that was engaging from start to finish. Really enjoying your channel and this one definitely inspired me to do some distance trailing.
Glad you enjoyed it! Go for it!
I said something similar to Harley Designs on his video but definitely to date one of my favorite videos you’ve made. From the scenery, the voice overlay and music. And let’s not forget the task you took on. Josh torture tested his, you definitely endurance tested yours. Well maybe torture tested the rtr electronics lol. My hat off to you good sir
Thank you! That's a really great compliment!
What an awesome video. It's very cool to do exactly what the truck is named after. Huge shout out to vanquish for building another awesome crawler.
Thanks!
wow.
This is a real test!!
So I love the concept, take a ride with the truck to show how good or bad it is!
Thank you, this test is THE test that will make me buy this RTR.
Glad you liked it!
OMG! Running with the camera on 1 hand, the transmitter on the other! Awesome madness!!! Awesome video and review 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks for watching!
Great video and good job filming and putting in all those kilometers! This video had an Expedition Overland vibe to it that I liked.
Thank you very much!
Much respect and appreciation for this vid. Lumping the camera gear while showing the pure reliability of the VS4-10 Fordyce, just awesome. Again, much thanks SBG. Hard run and performed flawlessly ... this makes me want one asap 👍
Thanks! Go for it... it's a great rig!
Very cool video !!!
As a marathoner and a trail runner I love your idea.
Go outside, move, enjoy life and nature. Peace.
Matthieu, from France.
Merci Matthieu! Glad you like the video!
Awesome video. That truck is awesome for a RTR. Might have to add a third Vanquish to my collection!!!
Go for it!
It's sort of embarrassing to admit but I have watched a ton of scaler truck videos and without a doubt, this is one of my absolute favorites! It's an RTR vehicle so, I was expecting massive failures early on and so, I was gleefully excited to finally find success at the end of the journey! Thank you for a very unique, very well crafted, and very enjoyable video! More please! (ha)
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video. Our hikes with the trucks stay at about 5k. But it’s twice a week just about every weekend. Thanks for sharing.
That is awesome! It was a lot of fun!
Absolutely hands down the best video on RUclips I have seen in a while! Love the just driving and walking and talking vids. Makes it more personalized. Also Your accomplishment of the the hike and the way the Truck performed was amazing!
Thank you so much! That is a really great compliment. Have a great weekend!
dude!! I love this content. Time to take the bomber back out for some altra 5k training
I’ve only lost two screws in four years of driving my VS4 /10 Pro, it is on the second body, plus I have one still in the box, sure appreciate you sharing your trail run love it
That's amazing!
What a mission! You and the truck killed it! … Did think you were going to Capra it off a cliff a few times 😂
Hahaha me too!
Now that is a rig review absolutely love this video plz plz do more like it
Thanks! That's the plan!
Holy Moly my feet hurt watching !!! Awesome video Matt !!!
Thanks! I wasn't as sore as I thought I would be.
Great video! Love the commentary! And kudos to Vp for creating a classic, rugged, dependable tiny truck!
Glad you enjoyed it!
ohh Hilton Falls. I love that place, ruined several rtr servos there.
This is what my Trail Amped play list is all about man. Great work!!! My son and I love hitting the trails our here and stretching out our rigs. last summer we did 34 miles in a little over 30 days with 5 or so different trails! it was so much fun. I cant wait to get back out there! Maybe next run ill run my VP truck for a long one! Again, great video! - P
That's so cool! What a great way to spend time together!
Great video and testing of the vanquish, honestly I was really surprised it went that far without any breakage. Keep up the great work.
Thank you!
Fantastic video my friend! And no small feat for a tiny truck!!!
Glad you liked it!
Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work I go! Matt having fun in the woods 👍
Awesome content! Thanks Matt for such an inspirational video of your trek with such an awesome rig!
Thanks for watching!
Great video. Trail run and crawler endurance test! So awesome. If you do the math that was a long drive in scale terms. Nicely done.
Thanks! 👍
Cool new video style. Im impressed how long the batterys lasted. New truck looks good
Thanks 👍
Nice!! I was recently at Limehouse not too far from there! Similar terrain, was lots of fun!
Gonna check out this spot this weekend!
Rockin my SBG decals on my Utron ever since I found out you're local 🤜🤛
It's a great location! Thanks for your support and see you on the trails!
What a testament to vanquish. And as usual thanks for such a fun video to watch and your usual amazing videography, editing and humor. Cheers.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I don’t normally comment, but this is awesome!!🔥🔥
Thanks!
Amazing expression of love for our hobby. Great driving on the raised wooden path, you made it look easy where it for sure wasn’t 😅👍🏻
Thanks! It was a lot of fun and looking forward to nicer weather so I can do something like this again!
I watched it all, congrats.
A great excuse for a wonderful hike, you young wipper snapper, hahahaha
Thanks for watching! It was a fun hike and the weather was perfect!
Hell of an adventure mate,impressive 👍👍👍👍😃
Thank you!
Wow Matt! And i thot 4 hours at my spot was tough! Comgrats on doing 19kms and that new Vanquish is mmmm mmmm noice!
Thanks man! It was a lot of fun, but definitely a challenge!
Wow what an epic test! Well done. I enjoyed this video 😊😊😊
Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome video,although I’d skip the walking and go right to the celebratory meal myself lol
Fair enough! It was delicious!
Wow, what a run, nice work!
Thank you!
I'm sold on the truck.
Do you think a stock SCX10 III could make it? That's mostly what I'm invested it, Axial products.
I'm attempting a similar challenge with my 3D printed RC car. I called it the #printedtrophy 😄
I really enjoyed the video, awesome work! And what an incredible trail!
That's great! Good luck with the challenge, and yes, it's really gorgeous!
Such an awesome video man.
I really like the style you have been doing lately.
You have always done great videos.
But.
This new style is really cool.
I'm not sure I could keep up.
And I'm younger...
I'll pull the Blind card.
I'll speed walk.
Yaugging..... what ever its called hahaha.
Vanquish yet again nailed it.
This will be my first rtr vanquish.
I dont need the Phoenix rtr.
This I love.
It's just different enough.
Haha.
I have a Phoenix.
A phorigin (Phoenix chassis, origin axles, origin sliders, origin half cab)
And
The f10 portal chassis kit, which is my scale build (have a post on the forum about it).
Not sure why I needed to explain all that...
Hahaha
Anywho.
Congrats on the 20.3 k
I'm not sure other brands could jeep up to that.
Traxxas maybe..
I dont know.
Great area.
Great video.
👍👍😎
The Bruce is fantastic, my dude you did a massive hike! I’ve spent some time around Bruce Falls. We usually bring a backpack with a small “jet burner” and a tiny pot to make tea on the go for long hikes like that. We’re up in Muskoka now, lots of great spots like this.
Nice! Love Muskoka!
Well done! Thanks for some inspiration to get out on the trails 👌
Glad you enjoyed it! Get out there an enjoy!
Great video! Could you do a post run strip down to check the condition of the running gear?
I've had a few requests to do this, so I'll see if I've got time.
Great video again Matt! Good idea for the theme, different and captivating seeing you go thru differnt state of mind on your trek! Awesome accomplishment as well! Make me want to duplicate with one of my phoenix! Cheers! I hope you treated yourself well after this half marathon of crawling / trailriding! Keep us posted about the condition of the truck after doing a little inspection ! Always a pleaure to follow you and hear your comments while you ride! Keep up the wonderful work!
Thank you very much! I treated myself to a Chipotle burrito and had ice cream after dinner!
@@scalebuildersguild well deserve! Thanks again for the great content!
Great video and truly amazed at the new VS4-10 Fordyce!!! Get some rest.
I'll try!
Well you covered the distance faster than full size vehicles do the Fordyce! Nice job Matt. See you and Josh tonight.
Thanks 👍
I guess I wasn’t paying attention to your channel , I didn’t realize you were in Canada , my fault . Keep up the great content 👍
I'm in Canada, eh! Thanks for watching!
Grueling... for you and to watch! Like an RC death March! Would love to know the aftermath on the truck - on the it made funny sounds. And most importantly, black socks with shorts and athletic shoes? Is that what I saw? If this continues, you may give the sport a bad name! 😂😅😮 be like : " the truck was cool, but did you see what he was wearing? Haha . Love it, Matt! Good work as per....
Sorry you don't like my fashion choices 😂!
Great video and that looks like a great place to hike!
It was! Thanks for watching!
(5:00) ...In response to Matt's "1-complaint"...
...You should have brought your Gmade (GS02F), which has a 2-speed, and a great crawling 1st gear, with overdrive (stock), to be able to run "ANY" course, and give Matt/us the quicker walking speed
"we all want in a trail crawler !!!" 😉👌👍
Brilliant video, looks like a great place to trail run! Really enjoyed it
It was really beautiful!
Absolute 10/10 video
Great video that was an amazing test to the durability of man and machine. Keep up the great content.
Thank you!
Awesome job man !!!! Good truck run and hike !!!!
Thanks!
Cool video i really enjoyed the fresh format! You need to do more stuff like this! PS how long was this journey in squares?
Thanks! I can't count how many squares that would be 😂!
Great video idea. Thoroughly enjoyed.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Magnificent content !! Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice work Matt! So cool to see running in RC... oh wait 🤣
Thanks!
I'd love to see a bit of a tear down after that.. see what kind of wear it took after that long
Great video glad to see it really put to the test right out the box
Me too!
Over three hours of brutal usage that is insane this is one tough little truck
Agreed!
That looked like an awesome workout!!! Would definitely like to challenge myself to do the same!! Nice job!! 😅
It was a great workout and the Chipotle burrito at the end was a great reward. Go for it! My only advice is to make sure you stay fuelled and hydrated on the route.
were you intentionally trying to remind me of the "survivor man" episode of the office where Michael tries to go out and survive in the wilderness by himself lol cus if so you nailed it hahaha great vid man
Hahaha! That is one of my favourite episodes. I didn't cut off my pants to make into shorts!
Awesome run sir I went trailing with my scx6 for about an hour I did enjoy it though
Nice 👍
Yeah that’s what I’m talking about, beautiful waterfall dude, this looks like RC heaven. I would love to walk those trails Yep I’m here watching 7:08 PM Tuesday appreciate you sharing
Thanks 👍
Pretty sweet truck, I may have to add one to the Collection
You should!
Heck yeah I’d enjoyed this episode, Love going out walking trails , I think a couple more years though I will have to get some new axle housing they are getting pretty war if you seen the courses that I run you know why. Well I’ll watch for the next one until then peace and chicken grease 😁🤙🤙😎
Thanks!
Nice Matt! Now that was epic!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great vid and I applaud your hard work making it. But i can see the Basecamp and Element doing just as well.
Challenge accepted.
Well done, I don't think my truck or me could make it that far without breaking something
Awesome video and effort!
I just ordered a grey Fordyce and is supposed to deliver today!
Very impressed with the Fordyce. Only thing I’m disappointed is that the shocks started to leak.
This is just an estimate but let’s assume this long journey of 19km or 11miles would usually take a week worth of regular usage. That essentially means you’d have to rebuild the shocks very frequently, basically every 5 trips or so.
I love my VS410 phoenix but it is also has issues with shocks leaking.
The shocks leaking seem to be the shortcoming of this truck and it’s a shame because I think they’re some of the smoothest shocks I’ve owned.
But again with that one thing out of the way I’m VERY impressed with the VS4 and the new Fordyce edition.
Side note: I would be very interested in a 0% overdrive or a lower 1-3% overdrive. As of now I’m not seeing a good way to accomplish that. Atleast not using VP parts. All I see are 8% and 21%
Anyone know of a gear set to accomplish this?
No gears will allow for 0%, that I know of anyway. When you rebuild your shocks, use green slime. That should help! Thanks for watching and good luck!
@@scalebuildersguild never used green slime but i always use O-ring lube.
I got my Fordyce and I like it a lot just like my Phoenix.
However I had some small issues. Just like my Phoenix the bed panels are paper thin and the Fordyce arrived with two tears in the bed panels, the biggest being about a half inch long. There was zero damage to box during shipping. And the right rear lug nut was so tight my DeWalt driver wouldn’t loosen it and I couldn’t loosen it with any RC hand tool that had a screwdriver or nut driver like handle. I had to use a 1/4” drive ratchet with a handle to have enough leverage to loosen it. Checked the threads and threads are perfect and not cross threaded and no debris in threads. I don’t know why/how it got so tight.
I’d also like to see VP include some parts trees and body posts like Axial and Traxxas.
Other than those couple small things, I think the Fordyce is fantastic just like my Phoenix.
Again, much respect to you and HD for your hard work in putting out great content, keep it up!
Great job Matt!👍
Thanks!
