    I love my FMS LC80. They do an amazing job with the detail, and they hold up without breaking, so whatever plastic they use is amazingly durable. I managed to replace the motor with a Furitek Micro Komodo, and it was a direct bolt in. Just needs a little trimming of the interior around the center console to make it fit. Found some metal transmission gears on ebay. and metal drive shafts on Ali Express, and brass wheels, and now it's a crawling beast. One of my favorite rigs.

    Of course!!! The 18th scale is to be driven in and outdoors! That's what opens a world of new options versus the 24th scale, going out and be capable to tackle most of the obstacles in the wild!!

    Always love to watch an FJC running! Glad to see you running these 1/18 FMS. The Katana was my 3rd purchase and that thing is a tank! A few upgrades and weight and these rigs are great performers. All the weight from the bodies gives em that nice body roll too!

  • @nielsjuhr594
    @nielsjuhr594 2 года назад

    Out of the group I go crawling with, there's a couple that want the rc to perform how they drive. Part of the fun I always found was figuring out how an rc performs and what is capable of. Haven't put an rc in my stable recently as we're still looking for a house, but the little monster trucks and then the trx4m's are next. The capra is a lot of fun to drive, very capable btw. You won't be disappointed. Sounds like you're on the mend, good to hear! Catch you on the next one!

  • @mr.dillpickle
    @mr.dillpickle 2 года назад +1

    Awesome video! I have the FMS Katana, it is a great rig. Drives more like a real rig would, probably because of the super heavy body. With a few mods I think it could be a really good comp crawler!

  • @toddanderson1506
    @toddanderson1506 2 года назад

    Awesome video, what a great place to. Crawl! I have the trx4m bronco coming on Friday and the bronx coming by the end of the month. Exciting times for 1/18! I have found on my other FMS rigs that brass rings in the tires really help. Also scx24 brass wheel weights with extensions help, the special wheel nuts just need to be retapped to fit the FMS axles. The diffs are pretty big on these, It would be awesome if the FCX24 portal axles could fit these.

    You mentioned having the Firehorse… did you review it? Rc Review almost convinced me and it’s on a great sale price at FairRc right now.
    Seeing your perspective would be great. Keep doing what you do, man👍🏻 Great Stuff!

    • @2fmrc
      @2fmrc  2 года назад +1

      I actually just got it. Haven’t ran it yet. Fms is running the sale on them and ask what I thought about it. I told them I didn’t know cause I didn’t have one lol. So they just sent me one! Hopefully I can get some time with it soon but for $100 (amazon) it’s definitely a good buy just from what I’ve seen so far. It’s very similar to my fj and bronx in build and those are both a blast.

      I was wondering if it was a similar build as those. From the video…. It did look scale with them. It looked like it did pretty good on the course that Francis runs on. And the $99 sale tag at Fair Rc makes it better still lol. I wonder why it’s priced so much lower though.
      Go ahead and get busy on that video. You’ve got time 🎃
      Thanks for what you bring to micro rc , Sir.

    Hi Matt, Simon checking in from FL during the upcoming storm. How did the mounting go with the OGRC servo on the FCX24 axles? I have one coming but did not see any mounts for the FCX. I have almost all my SCX24 converted to the FCX axles?
