What I appreciate is the running video comparisons on the same terrain. Harley and SBG don't do that and their video and opinions suffer because of it. Your work is more valuable to me. Always well done.
This rig is like my dream rig and the fact that it's at an attainable price means I can actually buy one and slowly upgrade it over time into my dream crawler. Big thank you for this review
In my experience I find that overdrive only helps a little bit on the climbs... not nearly as much as I originally thought it would. So once upon a time when I broke my 30% overdrive gears in the portal up front, I replaced them by re-installing the stock 0% OD portal gears. What surprised me after the change and going from 30% to 0% overdrive was how much my steering was adversely affected. My rigs ability to turn sharp was gone! 🤔 I didn't realize until then just how much overdrive actually helps with a crawler's STEERING instead! When the front wheels spin faster they naturally create a much tighter turning radius. 😯🤗
This was really interesting. I especially like the comparisons between the different vehicles, with different options and configurations. I think your thoughts on overdrive make sense, too. I'm a physics teacher, and I like the way you think about these things and describe them. A nice, experimental, scientific approach.
Hey thanks for the compliments. I was a software engineer in Silicon Valley and built my own start-up. An then now I'm a mountain bike reviewer/manager for a leading bike website
@@RCReviewChannel Oh, so cool! I'm a physics person, myself, and spent years writing software, so I recognize the type. :) Sounds like a very fun life.
On the 2022 List of builds, at the top actually. I still have to build the Ultra I bought to build in July for my B-day. ha ha. Went on a quest with another RC (shhh RYFT) build and ended up cloning it, and just now I am closing in on completing the resurrected RTR as a Portal Crawler. As for the Phoenix, I am excited by the Technical achievement of Shift on the Fly Overdrive, and Dig. Definitely be running the Predator Trencher, Not sure where I am going with Motor & ESC. Likely to stay with REEF's for my Steering and Winch Servos. Thx for the review, you always add good insight and I like your observations. Keep on Keeping On !
Think I am going to get this, looks great. Never had a crawler, only bashers , be nice to have something that isn't constantly broken. Been fun watching all your videos.
Great content as always! I'd love to see more Phoenix based videos, details on mods and setups, how to get the most from the phoenix. I'd also like to see more flat rail content with details of those builds. Maybe even a flat rail Phoenix!
Informative video. Thx. I would like to see a comparison video between a standard Phoenix and an upgraded version with VP machined axles. For me.a Vanquish has to have machined hardware, so it would be interesting to see if the budget molded plastic performs as well.
Neil's is Fantastic with his mods, it's well worth paying for the best hill climbing experience, this (Phoenix) crawler can beat (Axial) in a shootout, could be something!😃
i really am digging the yellow and black color scheme ... i plan to buy my first vanquish truck soon .. will be talking with you for best motors and stuff
How did you assigned the options,... as the controller you use is the Flyby gs5 right and it only has 1 three switch. So where did you put the dig to have neutral???
@@RCReviewChannel I’m very interested in getting this. Big purchase for me. So it’s awesome to have you go in great details about it. I will be able to purchase it with confidence. Much appreciated!
Portals: check! Vintage Toyota look: I love it! Affordable price: thank you! Switcheable overdrive: they read my mind! Stock performance: very impressive! 12 hours of building fun: Sold!
i am curious about the shocks leaking, i have the pro kit and i realize it takes some kind of vodoo magic to keep oil in them. i thought about flipping them upside down. any ideas?
I feel od improves the chance of making over steep climb, but I noticed it improved my downhill, turning and stability during bashing. Fronts pull the rear tires so the rig straightens out and drives straight. Od does drain my batter faster than stock.
Ordered one last night on amain for $432 with taxes and shipping. I want to make it as capable as possible on the stock chassis. I love my trx4 but it's too heavy to be capable but it's scale and that's good for what it is
Did you have any issues with your Kit? Wrong parts, or parts, especially bearings, that have a way to loose fit? And spring retainers that didnt screw in properly?
One of our vehicles has all Vanquish horns and the other has third party. We'll take photos as it is possible to use third party horns as long as they are flat and low profile.
@Rc Review or Anyone? What would you recommend for motor/esc if money is not a factor? The VERY best? Brushed and/or brushless that fits this vehicle. I just backordered one at AmainHobbies. I'd like to install the most powerful, quiet brushless option that will fit. Unfortunately I don't have a local hobby store. Closest is a couple hours by car. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
Great content as always, Francis! The capability of the truck in stock form or with just a little mods looks really impressive. Are those Q-series LED lights on Neil's truck. They look insanely bright.
Great video. I was thinking about getting one but I have a highly modified Ultra and just can’t justify it. My ultra is very similar to the yellow one as far as electronics and it has the dig in it as well. It is very heavy down low.
15 to 25 is a sweet spot for most rigs like in my trx 4 im running the ud in the rear and that is enough for sidehill and steep climbs but hey every rig is diffrent
Hey Francis, what is the exact setup on the yellow one ? I’m looking at buying some ottsix wheels for my phoenix portal and would love to know what Neil has used exactly. Thanks very much
Need some help with my Phoenix. Currently I’m running a HW 1080 with 13 turn 5 slot brushed motor with 17 tooth pinion. The control is good but there is not much In the way of top speed. Can u give me a brushless system that is under $200? I have never run brushless so I have no idea what KV would be best with what pinion size. Love you honest reviews. Thank you for the help
This is what I have, running just the stock 17t pinion snp.link/d24894a0. So awesome!!! 3s or 4s lipo battery. 4s like this makes it fly snp.link/e9d084c7
Hi there - does Neil have a channel or link?? I'd like to setup my Phoenix identically to his! I'm almost there....just need a few tips from him to complete it :)
Nice review. I will be getting one, just not sure in my wife will ask me to sell one. Tires, most of the folks getting a Vanquish product have tires, soooooo we can put the stock tires on a shelf queen. When might you review the Anti-foams?
What is the cost of the build at the end for the blue one And then what is the end cost of build for the yellow one Truck is $500 Once complete what's the final price of build.
@@paulclancy2404 from video sounds like they had some fit and finish problems my trx4 was flawless not mention Its rtr the bronco and Phoenix is 500 for a kit
This IMO. I have a Trx4 and really like it but I’m getting one of these. Basically everything I would change about my Trx4. Dig and selectable OD is awesome. I’ve got a sport and the body angles are a lot in comparison to this thing. This will be much more nimble. If you want speed tho you need better electronics. Quality is much higher on this rig tho. Not to say the Trx4 isn’t nice, but this thing looks fantastic.
I think it would be super interesting and also very informative to take that phoenix and a stock trx4 sport (maybe with better electronics) to make things fair and do a head to head. I kinda feel like the sport would do everything this does for a lot cheaper. Might be wrong but I’d be curious to find out. Also the widening kit I wouldn’t say is stock if that’s an option they give u so maybe throw some cheap ones on the trx4 sport also and it probably outperforms the vanquish for less money🤔🤔🤔🤷♂️👍
Sir, can i use the stock Trx4 Servos for the DiG and OD? I have two trx4s, to save cost, i will just upgrade the servos on my two trx4s, and contemplating to install them for the Dig and OD of the Phoenix I’ve ordered. Thanks and more power -from Philippines 🇵🇭 And What pinion gear on the motor was used Sir?
Maybe 33% is too much OD? My TRX4 Sport with overdrive and underdrive is at 26% and I don't see a downside. My neighbor is doing a build with the same electronics. It will be great to check it out!!!
You should really go out and do a build video of these newer rigs that's what a lot of us guys are looking for. We want to see what's inside it before we go and kick out $500. And you're unboxing video in this video didn't really cover it said there's a lot of plastic in the transmission but didn't say if it was the gears or whatnot all that stuff is important. Other than that keep up the good work
It's more expensive than most crawlers, because it is well-designed and has a lot of functions that other crawlers don't have. It has a dig unit, which allows the driver to lock up the rear wheels (good for descending steep hills, and super tight turns); it also has switchable a switchable overdrive unit (no other crawlers on the market has this function, and it makes turns tighter, and makes the truck more controllable going up steep inclines since the front wheels spin faster; it also allows the truck to switch between 4wd and rwd); despite the axles being plastic, there are also brass sleeves that go in to strengthen the axles and also add weight down low (another design that other crawlers don't have out of the box). As for the TRX-4, it really depends on what you are looking for in a crawler, but quality-wise, the Vanquish is definitely better even though they both are top quality vehicles.
Yeah, i was wondering the same. How can he tell the difference? Feeling and durability are not the same 😄 Always take these claims with a grain of salt.
From what I have seen it is a E clip inside the transmission isn't shown in the manual, but in the listing on Amain there is a link to an updated manual

I had just purchased my second TRX4 when the Phoenix came out, I ordered the Phoenix
Good choice.
Very interesting review, thank you both
I ordered mine and hoping my setup will perform as I am expecting

I’d like to see how you set up the Flysky GT5 to work with all of the servo’s. Excellent video! This is a great kit and is a game changer.
Coming soon!
Great review, and the mods to the yellow one aren’t hard to achieve and made a big difference.
Yeah, obvious mods and showed the potential of the vehicle.
I picked one up due to your review, great job enjoy your videos.
Fun watching Francis .. ! Very enjoyable , and informative 👍 , ✌
How did you assigned the options,... as the controller you use is the Flyby gs5 right and it only has
1 three switch. So where did you put the dig to have neutral???
Finally just ordered mine.
That was pretty epic! Nice to see them running together and making those comparisons. Looks like a great rig for sure.
Very lucky to have them all dialed for the first run of the Phoenix
Hey Francis, Great video right there. Best out there regarding comparison! Just FYI: Your Amain link is not working anymore.
Need to do a detailed build out of the yellow Vanquish what all did you do to it? That rig is sick, yo!

They are Vanquish $100 ones. Visible in daylight!!!
How did he mount them?

What does the yellow one weigh?
Would you do straight axel or portal now? I’m thinking of getting the straight axel rtr pheonix
I would like to buy this tree led front light. Could you let me know the link?
I would love to see a video on how to program all those servo’s on a Flysky GT5
i am curious about the shocks leaking, i have the pro kit and i realize it takes some kind of vodoo magic to keep oil in them. i thought about flipping them upside down. any ideas?
Don't overfill and green slime the o'rings, personally I use 60wt oil and mine have been perfect....
Cheers 👍
I feel od improves the chance of making over steep climb, but I noticed it improved my downhill, turning and stability during bashing. Fronts pull the rear tires so the rig straightens out and drives straight.
Od does drain my batter faster than stock.
Descending... that is interesting. We'll test that.
@@RCReviewChannel going downhill is much easier w 30%od. Rear tires spin slower so it drags and works like a mini dig.
Will a hobbywing fusion 2300kV fit on the vanquish phoenix?

What Motor/esc in the yellow one?
Castle Mamba X ESC and Holmes Hobbies Puller Pro 3300kv Stubby

Its a locked diff right. So will any one the tyres out spin while makig a though turn ?

You bet. Not easy to make this one since there was so much to share. But we tried.
Great video. The cherry on top would have been if you had the origin present. Nice work
We've found that super big OD doesn't actually help in climbs due to weight transfer. Rear tires are doing most of the work.
15 to 25 is a sweet spot for most rigs like in my trx 4 im running the ud in the rear and that is enough for sidehill and steep climbs but hey every rig is diffrent

All included 👍
Ok I don't have enough environmental situations to warrant 1000 crawler but man that neutral drop has me drooling 😋
I'm not sure we're supposed to to that but hey.... it can take it and it's serviceable.
Dumb question, how do go into neutral and have so many options with 3 way switch , 6% 33% regular ratio and 2wd dig on separate channel and switch 🤔

@@ericsrcexpeditions thank you for the info. Definitely sounds cool, especially rwd option. I am a big fan of rwd rcs
I didn't find the plastic was any better than in the TRX-4. Axle housings for instance. Good for sure, but it felt the same to me.
Yeah, i was wondering the same. How can he tell the difference? Feeling and durability are not the same 😄 Always take these claims with a grain of salt.
Sooo. TRX4 or Phoenix?
What build directions are incorrect? I ran into this problem on my wendingo build and I’d expect it from Redcat but not vanquish!!
From what I have seen it is a E clip inside the transmission isn't shown in the manual, but in the listing on Amain there is a link to an updated manual
Like to see these same test on slippery muddy ground.
Fail everything. Problem with slippery stuff is it's hard to baseline and compare to others. It becomes a random wildcard.
