Guy pack grease in the axle sides behind the wheels, dirt gets passed the bearing and into the pumpkin, I did this to the UDR with great results 🫡🥳
👍💯
Cool video. Learned a good bit from your content. TY and please keep em comin.
Just got this truck a couple of days ago I'm loving this Channel. Subscribed!
💥👍💯
Now that's what u call A LOT of dirt. And I hope miss guy feels better soon.
I have replaced all shocks, transmission is billet along with the front diff. Best mods I have done. Aluminum knuckles and steering is all aluminum. I will say I drive mine like I stole it. Love it!!
Nice!! You use brake line as well for venting tires!🤙🏻 makes the best hole I’ve found. And I’ve tried a lot 🤪plus ya get nice little rubber pucks out when finished. They all just stay in the brake line!!😁👍🏻❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
rad video, funny i got to see the real heatwave truck yesterday at the sand sport show.
Thank you guy for keeping it real
Great info video Guy this Baja rey 2 looks to be really good Rc .got to wait till we get over here UK.💯👍
It really is a nice truck
Fab honesty at the end. . . . .
From you any way ;-) 👊
I am starting to believe I have a lemon kraton 6s v5. Constant problems with it. The list is long. I do know for a fact it was poorly assembled. From now on any rtr I buy I will give it a thorough look over before I run it. Lesson learned. I have always bought unassembled kits and the Kraton was my first rtr.
I have saw many vids that may have been true it was with the tlr typhon and the diff fluids being really low. Next week I'm gonna start with my infraction on doing a complete teardown of the diffs and check all bearings
I've been thought about half dozen kratons lol , I learned all the nuances of arrmas the hard way . Tlr typhon a great rc now mine older I'm not loving those hinge pin brace incerts and you have trash alot parts to get rid of them . Yes you can run your arrma one or two times but I suggest going though it especially the diffs they're usually low , you want add little thicker fluid anyways and see if you need the bearing shims , usually don't till you have wear tear
Im not sure whats going on at arrma. I bought a senton recently and litterally replaced everything on it within 6 months. I hav prolly rolled it a handfull of time and never jump it. I just had motor then esc then arm then tires. One problem after another over and over. I finally replaced almost everything elect, and it finnally runs without issue. I have some axials no problem. I even have a tt02 that runs pretty good. Not sure at all
@dankforest So this might be a case in point study that you're experiencing with your truck. If this vehicle you picked up is "old stock" This might be what the problem is and why sales go on with companies like this.
@@dankforest funny how all my kits run great. Also have a tt02. Even bought an unassembled slash kit. Things a tank. Diff fluids were low on the kraton, gear mesh way off also. About to run the Kraton fingers crossed I fixed all the issues.
Yeah I'm so glad that your wife doing fine you always been a good person a thank you for all you have done and thank you family for letting you spend time and doing stuff for this high before I thank you guy 👍👍
👍💯🙏
Thanks for posting this. I just bought this truck and it’s my first RC, so I’m a newbie at this.
Get a good set of 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 metric driver bits and an electric screw driver...Since its not just a tub with wheels the truck takes alot of extra work and may seem too much for someone new...But it is worth it and you will develop your own methods to speed up working on the truck...It will teach you to drive better too
Wow your first truck a trophy truck . Let me give you my number when you selling it next month 😂 I give you a dB pro. Where did you find it? You back order and tgey sent , I'm hoping lhs has one
I probably wouldn't drive in sand and blow it off with air when your done and you be fine , trucks are made we'll. I have a freind swears by stock xxmax and electronics had it for years only burnt servo out 😂
He's driving it like he stole it in the worse place and somewhere made for larger vehicles .
Hello GUY nice to see some RC content and glad the wife recovering well🙏🙏🙏 … just drive that sucka and disregard the axels till you blow a bearing…what you can’t see can’t hurt ya 😂😂🤣 and thanks for your honesty on RUclips abuse didn’t know that was happening 🤨🤨🤨
🙏👍💯
Guy garage 👍 Lois Baja Rey is your favorite RC you can bash it and it's capable to come back for more what a cool rc Lois mack all right 👍👍👍👍
I swear I love your 2 little robots buddies
What great companions when you still have a geek side in you haha
By the way I love robots so much since I’m a very young kid……maybe this is why
At this point in life just learn that whatever makes you happy (within reason) as long as you aren't truly hurting anyone you have to have SOME FUN cause life is WAY TOO SHORT to worry about what some think to themselves
@@rcguygarage TOTALLY AGREE mate, totally agree…
This is exactly what I’m teaching to my wife
She’s Taiwanese you know, she had quit her country to live with me, and you know, Asians, they care A LOT about what the others think… It’s like a mental jail…
(We talk English between us btw)
I appreciate you a lot, I saw your mindset through your videos in different situations and I appreciated it, your behavior etc.
Big salut 🫡 from France dude,
ViNZ.
I haven't saw. Anymore videos on the 100mph off road.. What do you think of trying to use the udr for that kind of speed ,that 4 link (I think that's what it is called can take a beating.Anyways keep the vids coming ,I'm gonna order that jump box you tried out I know you don't wand to let big black run that low on the batteries but that would 100% seal the deal that it's a solid unit
I kinda got that impression with all the panel screws. After many many years of wrenching on cars, it becomes a hassle more than a hobby.. but that's where the love comes in. You wanna see your investment do what it's meant to do, so you go through the uncomfortable steps of making it happen. I got the Mini T diff all back together and put a new motor in it today, so that was a huge one for me. Just broke the JB Weld shock tower repair I had trying to jump curbs lol. Also replaced today with a fresh pair of tires. Time for a night rip!
I. Have thousand runs on one of those but I never did diff, I bought the gears ⚙️ but man it's tidiuis I figured I do the ball diff one day , that mini t I put big can motor it dosent even get warm problem wasn't enough room but now we have the mini b and mini drag car ill use one of those chassis
I done that too with the jb weld one of mine still has it , I stocked up on parts now just haven't played with those in a minute , hard to find pinion gears for 2mm shaft I was going try welding one on but I have guess a good tooth count ,
@@paulclancy2404 Yeah I just took the diff apart because the thing was acting like it shredded gears but ended up being a fried motor that I may or may not have submerged 🙄😆 Pretty happy with the new motor though. 4800kv is just enough to be fun but not overpowered.
@@paulclancy2404 Yeah unfortunately the Mini T has been discontinued but the Mini B parts mostly cross over.
I bought one and it was DOA out the box. They Chinese builders put the washers in wrong on the motor cover and it stripped all gears the first time I applied power. Took it back to the dealer and got my money back.
Good call👍💯
The UDR has the exact same issues... the rear axle just attracts dirt, the plastic just doesn't seal... the diffs will blow out soon, I promise. so yeah, when I upgraded to a metal rear axle, no more problem, but it does cost a bit. That whole rear is just buried in dirt during runs, it's just how these things work. Those arms are probably going to taco eventually. Everything requires maintenance, it's part of the hobby.
👍💯
Yeah them rear suspension arms are crap...Probably second most important upgrade after the steering...The 2.0 axle was supposed to keep the debris out...I updated my v2 axle to a 2.0 and I haven't got any junk in mine but I haven't checked again since 4-5 packs ago so guess i better...With the v2 axle I never got anything in it over 100 packs even with a small crack starting
Seal the rear axle with 3m weatherstrip seal. It’s black and like half rubber half tar type semisolid that never dries but sticks and stays twice as good as warm bubblegum. You wouldn’t even see it.
Running an Arrma Senton 3S with a Proline flotek fusion body and its 2wd and really easy to maintain. Why are most RC cars nowadays 4x4? is it for air control? 4x4 is kinda boring sometimes. My Arrma Typhon is now 2wd and it has a big spoiler for downforce on the back wheels and its so much fun to play with and i only have 1 rear differential and the front diff is now a spare for the rear. Just got one of them high power air blowers from amazon to blow my cars out and it works great. BTW hope the wife is good dude.
the only thing that I can think of with the 4x4 is because it gives it that all-wheel drive that ultimately has more traction all around. Two wheel drive is fun That's what I grew up on but I can definitely appreciate all four wheels burning up either the pavement or roostering dirt
To help with the future RC Guy tire hole tools and to invest in RC Guy soldering board futures !....LOL... That was alot of sand and mud jammed in that Baja Rey. Almost need to be cleaned every time its used.
YES 💯 when I did the tires I should have kept the PILES OF SAND I knew it was allot but DANG were they filled
Air compressor with a length of brake line attached to the nozzle works great for that. Blows all that crap right out.
How about spraying some degreaser, followed by some pressure water wash drying it with air and spray some wd40 over metal parts?
All been done before just time to try something different
Metal Axles are the key to those tip of trucks
Whaww Guy, thats a lot of sand. Im saving up to pick one up, but looking at the video i dont know if i will be able to keep up with the maintenance, cause i love running my cars in dirt and sand. And i put them through a lot of abuse.
In your professional opinion is it worth a vehicle to get for someone that pretty much just wants to throw a pack in it and rip, with very little maintenance.
Dang guy that's a rough one to answer. I'll say that if you can focus on one RC with your time and wallet it's a little bit easier. The truck is a PERFORMER so you need to keep up with the maintenance. Breaking into the axle again was me just inspecting after one run day just to see condition. I'm not surprised to see the debris and the design is good however I'll be trying to seal out the intrusion. 👍💯 if your driving style is this then this truck is worth the time spent
Thank you for your time in responding to the question.
Boom epic 🎉
It's that an EPIC BOOM😜👍💯
I want this truck i just. Im not waiting on horizin , you like as much as udr ?
Yes I actually do like this truck. It's semi comparable to the UDR however the UDR size cost and capability do place it higher on the scale for those reasons. The UDR is slightly more fluid feeling but the Losi gives it a run for the money
First time I got a close look at the rear end geometry that is horrible, that angle on the rear u-joint is atrocious. You need to see if there is a way to lower the upper four link connection be closer to the pivot point the lower arm.
Do you notice that u-joint getting warm?
No I don't
I was wondering if you could give me some information on what size a hobby Wing should I put in my Traxxas es Lacs
Slash
3665 3200kv works good for me, also have the 3652 4000kv, gets a little to hot for me. (I use that one onroad)
Like to run cool and don't worrie about high temps.
Wanna convert a slash to raptor r with a max8 2500kv.
On 4s
3665 2400kv on 4s and 3200kv on 3 . Didn't see 4s.
Thank you for the information
Guy.I did not realise the percentage You tube were getting on this thanks thing.Along with advertising revenue.I see were ya comin from.We are growing their power and not ours.anyway here's half a greenback Dollar for a quarter of a cup of coffee.,im accounting for the rate of inflation since the date of this post.Thanks my friend.Say hey to Daisey and co.✌️
😳 GUY😲 you CRAZY👍💯👊
I sent myself 5 English pounds notes earlier, now I owe You tube 30 per cent of my own money.Capitalism eh ✌
@@johnnyhaberfield721 😳😲🤣😂🤣😂 you paid RUclips to pay yourself and LOST TWICE‼️
@@rcguygarage fight fire with fire ,that's what I say.Horizon hobbies on my list next.I just purchased two V2 kratons from them.That will teach em.Capitalism eh?Enjoy it whilst we are able.✌️
@@johnnyhaberfield721 😲🤣😂
I always mute RUclips ads anyway 🤣😂😂
👍💯
I'm wanting to put a 4S in it
I myself wouldn't run it on 4s. My wallet isn't wanting that much action
You don't think the drive train would take it? Or you mean crashing?
Thank you for that information I do believe that I will just get a 4S vehicle
@@paulclancy2404 The drivetrain could take it for a limited amount of time just like if you put nitrous on a Toyota Corolla it'll take it for a very limited amount of time 👍💯💥
Np problem man love the channel!
What are the robots called?
Anki Vector not ddl these 2 are originals
You got a bird dude?
I used to have a few of them 👍💯
why do my comments disappear?
RUclips has a way with its computer algorithm that if someone is saying something that is offensive it can automatically drop the comment or hides it somewhere. It's all AI GUY
@rcguygarage all I said was there is a way to get the little robot to work because the site has been down wasnt sure if you used the voice feature or not
Traxxas slash
That thing is probably the worst driving rc car I have ever owned. I’ve already nicknamed it the wonderer. Can keep that thing straight to save its life.
😂🤣👍💯
The stock steering is known to be horrible on all versions of the Baja Rey...The Vitavon or Hot Racing steering racks fix the slop and flimsy issues...Probably the most important thing to upgrade on it...Makes it a whole new driving experience
@nonya1598 yes👍💯
I’m not trying to be a jerk but if you clean your rig after every use with a compressor or a little water and the air compressor you wouldn’t have that problem therefore you wouldn’t need to complain as much RC’s get dirty and need to be cleaned every single RC I’ve ever had has been a maintenance hog
