  • Wait, hold up, FMS Model just gave us a new release that’s not a scale details model. Meet the new FCX24 Lemur found here: bit.ly/3UWpY8t This trail buggy style of rig is based on the FCX24 but it’s not just a body swap. There are a number of things that are different which Greg will go over in the video. After you’re up to speed on what the Lemur has to offer, you’ll see it in action. Is it a true performer or will this newest release that’s not what we’re used to seeing from FMS need some work? Technical Update: The driveline is a mix of bearings and bushings.

    It is interesting that FMS chose to release the Lemur on the 1:24 scale chassis rather than utilising the FCX18. The slightly bigger scale chassis would have produced a better product for not that much more cost I feel. I have a Partner Racing QX-4 rock buggy and the 1:18 scale gives it a noticeable performance advantage over 1:24 scale products whilst retaining the handy compact size/weight benefits.

    Some brass wheels LGRP Black Labels and a 12mm TREAL streach, that thing would be great with just those few mods .
    I put brass INJORA brass wheels and LGRP BL on my Fcx24 Power Wagon and it made a big difference in performance.

    As is sits stock I think a kid would have a lot of fun with it but for us crawler enthusiasts i think what you did would be about it to have nice time with it.A set of smaller tires and heavier wheels and just cut the springs down to lower it should do the job.

    @ba_dupri78 9 месяцев назад +1

    I had the same thought about the links off the LC80 I think that could be a budget way to get some performance and wait for more parts to come out...man I'm stuck between this, lC80, or finally giving into a trx4m build😂

  • @AnyAssumptionBanter
    @AnyAssumptionBanter 9 месяцев назад

    If the intent is to make it into just a crawler, yes, will need some upgrades. But, isn't it a rock bouncer buggy? to go on trails, roots, dirt, some small rocks, etc.
    Is it water resistant or is it the same motor/esc as in the other fcx's because if it has some water resistance, would open up for some fun in creeks.

    All the tyres are interchangeable between 1/24 and 1/18 models ? Because you change the tyres to the Blazer that's why i ask.

    your in the WRONG mindframe on this one bud, it's more of a rock "bouncer" than a crawler. It could use better tires but it is made to bounce, if it needs more "tire speed".......USE THE 2nd GEAR THEY GAVE IT

    Better than the ax24 overall but still no thanks. If i ever get another mini crawler, the fcx18 or fcx24 blazer is where it's at. Keep it scale FMS that's where you excell and that's why we love you, not this garbage.
