I have had my first Carson forklift for 14 hours and already modified for the battery upgrade as seen in this video. I Really appreciate you make this one! Two other things I have done is swap the forward drive with the fork lift channels, this way drive and turn are on the right stick and the fork/mast is controlled by the left stick. The other item is the tires have a crown which makes for a very small contact patch with the floor. I found by taking a Dremel and slowly removing the high point it has less understeer. Cheers.
Great video! Had me on pins and needles from 9 mins. on : / Love those connectors! So glad everything worked out. I was feeling very sad for you, but i knew you would get it figured out 1 way or another. No reason you could not abandon all the stock electronics. Thank goodness you did not have to! Victory!!!
It does look like there is enough room in that little forklift to put a separate: receiver, ESC and servo into it if something did happen to the board. Which is good to know. Now all it needs is metal gears a trick aluminum mast and maybe a big winch servo to run the forks up and down. Clearly the three dislikes are from people who leave things stock.
Good one. Ohh, liked your enthusiasm and joy when finding out the steering works. Gonna be great with the constant power. You can actually get seperate 5-wire servos but yes, not sure if they are gonna be any better, and sometimes they are not standard size. Could be cool if Loading Wars lifted these forklifts’ popularity and Carson found out and did a full hobby-grade 2.0 Version 🙂
HELLO MY FRIEND!! I GOT THE PALLETS .. THANK YOU SOOOOO VERY MUCH!! They are FANTASTIC!! I will mention them during the next episode of Loading Wars!! THANK YOU AGAIN!!
@@TheRealRCSparks uhhhhh medic u inspaird me to buy my first hubby grade rc it was 5 years ago the e revo brushed 1/10 it was awsome and not long ago i gave it to a friend of mine hes a bit short on budget and i have a x maxx 8s so he was happy and am happy much love
@@TheRealRCSparks Yes I have and Evan loves your show too.. You actually inspired me to get into RC and to make a RUclips channel. You've impacted more people than you will ever know. Keep giving us the good stuff!!
Excellent, very good update, it gains in power what is missing with only 5 batteries of 1.5v. The weight on the steering is good but to change the servo it will not be easy, and if the wheels turned much more it would facilitate the loading. Excellent video and great explanations !!
Sweet! Ive been watching your other channel too and am loving loading wars. I genuinely was like "noooo" too when the steering didn't immediately work. Great job though! Love it.
Great video bro! Awesome the battery upgrade worked, love the laugh when you got it working...lol. Looks like enough room in the body cavity for a lipo voltage alarm add on if you wanted.
Thats a great upgrade for those little forklifts. It should help with lift n not drag goin up. Sucks u couldnt swap out the servo. Great job on the tutorial. U always do a great job of in depth upgrades or builds, really helps n makes it easier for someone to follow along
I like it didn't know u could even do that mod to that type of toy I hope one day I can get back in to modding rc's to ty for always coming out with new conseps for rc's love the show u guys and girls do 😀
Just a tip while soldering with the kit. Make U shale hook on both wires and join them and give it couple of twist then put the sleeve and solder it with heat.
I have always wanted to modify old (or even new) cheaply made RC's. This video is great! I love things like this. You should do more videos like these. Like buy some cheap, shitty RC from walmart and install some real gear into it and see if it can do some bashing, compare it to a decent RC and maybe break down the cost per ROI on each. and if it crashes (as long as the parts you installed are ok) you would only be out
Never got the notification broski, u know im always here, but ya these folk lifts a so cool n I want one but man that price, maybe someday. I would love to try the loading wars n will have to get myself one, or two lol Great stuff Aaron, thanks for sharing bud
You have me thinking of getting one of these just to tinker around the house with. Would be a way to get a few small items off the floor easily and in a fun way lol
RCSparks Studio darn tootin!!! For me any win in RC is a big win, it feels so good when you change something or fix something and the machine comes back too life. I'll admit after the first 2 attempts to get the wheels to turn my heart started to break :P
I did a similar mod to my radio transmitter, so fit in a single rechargeable LiFe battery. I just cut out the battery tray, pull the positive and ground wires, and soldered the connector that the battery I was intending to use had, and finally just added a velcro strip to the tray and battery to help hold it secure in my radio.
First of i smash that like button before i even watch the video bro you earned my respect and that's the least I can do Second I'm glad it worked out more power is an unnecessary advantage if your battery power output doesnt drop I'm glad to see your up doing videos again however you been feeling as of late better I hope
Thanks Mike.. having Crohns really REALLY sucks.. but I am so fortunate that I am able to have great viewers like you that leave amazing comments that fuel me each day :) Its a team effort Mike! Ill be feeling much better in a few weeks... thank you for the kindness!
@@TheRealRCSparks always bro I have IBS so I kinda know what you're dealing with but not to the extent ofcourse as IBS is lesser version of Crohn's disease
I did something similar to that, but I ran it through a Castle BEC. Something in that scale with that small of a motor doesn't draw enough amperage to need more than the 25A the BEC put out.
Ok , Medic we all know you are the man in #loadingwars #Loadingkings #rcsparksreboot #rcsparks #rcsparksstudio .... that being said after searching forever I finally got the new Carson forklift and I must say I'm very disappointed with this product, I watch loading kings and notice you use different radios on yours and they have better steering and power , while we are all stuck dealing with the big covid19 can you do a video on your mods and setup , have been watching your channels for many years and you are the forklift king ,,,,, thanks Brother, p.s. I have modded a Newray forklift and it smokes the Carson at less then 1/3 investment, HELP
A 2s Lipo has 8.4 V in the beginning and normally you will stopp using it with about 7.6 V (3.8 per cell), that's what you know if you are flying helis ;) 3.7 V (what means 7.4 V at 2s) per cell is already quite low (when landing), of course you can go down to 3.2 or whatever, but normally no one would do this; helis/planes often do already show power lack at these voltages. Only car guys go down that low ;-) - BTW: Could use NiMh, like Eneloops - they also have a higher current than 1.5 in the beginning and a more flat curve than normal batteries. Anyway, very nice video!
Who here ALREADY WATCHES LOADING WARS on our other channel, "RCSparks REBOOT" ?
Me!
Me
Every one of them and all your other vids

hows it going?
ALLLRIGHT! the start of every rc sparks video ever

The pure excitement you had when it worked was awesome.
I bought a Carson Forklift because of you. Thanks Sir.

Great modification Mr Sparks!!!

upgrade I'm glad it worked for you Aaron, Keep up the great videos!!!
Aaron your dedication to the hobby is amazing and admirable. Love the video brother.
This is such an awesome mod bud. :-) You picked that LiPo to fit perfectly. Great job!
I was SOOOO LUCKY! It fit JUST right.. a little deep.. but removing the floor was easy.. haha!
I really enjoy your tutorial video really helps being a newbie in the hobby.
I love the amount of joy that brought you. That's awesome thanks for the video bud. Keep it up you guys are doing great
Sweet! Ive been watching your other channel too and am loving loading wars. I genuinely was like "noooo" too when the steering didn't immediately work. Great job though! Love it.
I love your vids you are the reason I got into rc cars
hello friend, beautiful the forklift a show, I use it at work and it is fun even from the truth, beautiful your garage really🤘👍👍😁
Hello my friend.. and welcome to my shop! Thank you so much for the kind words.. I am very happy you enjoyed my film. Thank you!
@RcSparksStudio do you have a email address or something so I can contact you mate ? ☺️
love loading wars and awesome conversion
Cant wait to try it out, it looks way more responsive.
Looks great I can’t wait to try it
Loading wars is one awesome game challenge you invented very entertaining brother
Epic upgrade I'm glad it worked for you 👊👊
Love the reaction at 11:45 Aaron.... I may have to look this unit up and get one..
Love the loading wars! Keep up the great videos!!!
Hey there WES!! WICKED DUDE! So glad to know Loading Wars is a good show for you! We enjoy making it :)
Looks like them two companies were in cahoots with each other! That battery was just the perfect size - of course minus the AA dividers.
I've never seen such a perfect fit for two totally different objects lol
That's great, thanks for showing!
Glad it all worked out for ya man ..too bad about servo...ur excitement got me excited
Super cool Linde mod 💪🏻
U are a master of RC custom mods 😎
Great video bro! Awesome the battery upgrade worked, love the laugh when you got it working...lol. Looks like enough room in the body cavity for a lipo voltage alarm add on if you wanted.
This just keeps getting better and better with every video you do. Imagine this conversion when it comes to loading wars lol
A really good set up with Wichita and stuff
The speed of it driving, seems very realistic. It felt like I was reliving my warehousing days lpl
Great job. You got lucky not frying that board. 👍
Loading wars is a blast love that series, but RUclips gold is a favorite of mine,as well as the big dirty races.
I've never seen an RC fork lift.. But umm.. Yea I definitely want one!!!
Niiiice! Just found out about your other channel. Love the wars! So fun to watch!
Those things are so cool.
Thats a great upgrade for those little forklifts. It should help with lift n not drag goin up. Sucks u couldnt swap out the servo. Great job on the tutorial. U always do a great job of in depth upgrades or builds, really helps n makes it easier for someone to follow along
Awesome job medic. Got my inspiration wheels burning out in my head lol.
Perfect Job my friend ......thumbs up 👍👍
Awesome video you're the one that got me into rc 👍
Great video. Just ordered my Carson Linde H40D, planning to do the LiPo upgrade as well.
Great conversion great video Thanks for sharing!
Awesome video excellent upgrade really a win
I like it didn't know u could even do that mod to that type of toy I hope one day I can get back in to modding rc's to ty for always coming out with new conseps for rc's love the show u guys and girls do 😀
Nice upgrade
Very cool upgrade, I do so hope this means for longer loading wars.. look forward to how you upgrade the mast a bit
I love it Medic!😱
it seem to be performing quicker, can't wait to see it in action on the next loading wars challenge
That is awesome. Gonna make the war even better
Being a Forky driver by trade, I love the loading wars😁😁, great fun to watch 😎😎🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 good stuff on the battery mod 😎👌👌, bummer on the servo 😶
Just a tip while soldering with the kit.
Make U shale hook on both wires and join them and give it couple of twist then put the sleeve and solder it with heat.
That could work also, thank you :)
I have always wanted to modify old (or even new) cheaply made RC's. This video is great! I love things like this. You should do more videos like these.

that's great dude, way to go!! :)
Nice work man
Love the show!
Great Video!
I have been checking these out and after that conversion I want it .
Never got the notification broski, u know im always here, but ya these folk lifts a so cool n I want one but man that price, maybe someday. I would love to try the loading wars n will have to get myself one, or two lol Great stuff Aaron, thanks for sharing bud
Pretty sweet medic
Still good mod. Props!
Sometimes I wish I lived in Canada so I can come hang in the shop with you.
Nice Forklift
You have me thinking of getting one of these just to tinker around the house with. Would be a way to get a few small items off the floor easily and in a fun way lol
Owesome as always!
I am subbed to your a other channel a long time ago and I love loading wars and it is just going to get a lot better with the new upgrade!
Love me some loading wars
Great job Aaron, thought you lost it for a sec. But it's for sure a win/win
That's the beauty of this great hobby, hey RLS?! Sometimes you win, and sometimes you lose.. but when you win, you win big!! :)
RCSparks Studio darn tootin!!! For me any win in RC is a big win, it feels so good when you change something or fix something and the machine comes back too life. I'll admit after the first 2 attempts to get the wheels to turn my heart started to break :P

@@TheRealRCSparks always bro I have IBS so I kinda know what you're dealing with but not to the extent ofcourse as IBS is lesser version of Crohn's disease
I’ve just done 14th Scale digger build mods ect first one I’ve done and still doin stuff to it. Loved it. I did upload it on here.
I did something similar to that, but I ran it through a Castle BEC. Something in that scale with that small of a motor doesn't draw enough amperage to need more than the 25A the BEC put out.

Yessir.. already done: ruclips.net/video/JSBuD7sZwV8/видео.html There ya go :) Its not as bad as you think!
Wicked vid - like a little kiddie when it worked. Would it be possible to swap out the cable connector on the servo - with a resister in-line ?
Roo
So cool I use the real one at a factory I work at sometimes
I like your shows
Great video fantastic
