I hate my Atlas, maybe I hot a lemon but nothing but issues, week drives haft broke and super underpowered yet still broke, esc fried also. Ran it maybe 3 times lmao.
@@anthonytuccillo6274 Same experience, got one in December 2021 after seeing some glowing reviews and so far nothing but issues. Even had it replaced once, second one seemed better but now the center axle is binding if there is any load on it.
@@DipeshHinduja yea, I bought mine because all the amazing reviews as well, I don't get it. The thing is a peice of crap, I do like the body though. I see all of FMS products get rave reviews but after my experience I'm afraid to get anything from them. Way over priced in my opinion. RGT on the other hand is great. Have the 1/10 Jimny and it's amazing for the price. Can't wait to get the Toyota land cruiser they just released!
LOL! Former owner of two Escorts. Indestructible under the hood. Interior ergonomics? The struggle is real. Getting in and out of the front seat is better than 15 minutes of stretching exercises at Fit N Fifty old geezer's gym. ;)
Looks like a very capable crawler. More companies should do the high low speed thing, reminds me of my old cars that have 2 speed gearboxes, or the ones that have normal and “turbo” on the control 😁
Video awesome. This truck is really cool. I wondered about the relation to the Atlas. That drive uphill with rock in the bed is impressive. The AWACS, AWESOME!! E3 family is iconic . Not boring to us, Respect.
Ya know, when I first started watching your channel I didn't think I would really like it. I must say that when I get the notifications I can't wait to gwt home to watch on the 55" screen. Love your content even though I'm not into the cars you feature. Well aside from the wltoys dtuff.
This is awesome to hear Troy. I try to cover a large range of RC... so something for everyone. Although I'm sure you'll notice that I do love a good WLToys!
Wow absolutely love the 6x6 body! 👍 Never bothered personally with drivers but I can definitely understand the appeal with the scale effect of having one. 👍
Hey my dad made those airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) planes at Boeing here in Washington state when I was a kid. When he retired he was making the wings for the F22 stealth fighter. Cool 6x6. Driver looks good in there. 👍🏻✌🏼🤟🏻
I have the Roc-Hobby 1/6th scale jeep. HAD to fit a scale GI. They look totally stupid with no driver. So, a big thumbs up from me Mr T for your efforts !!!!
To do upgrades to it where would I find them? I love but like everyone else ide want to lift it add bigger tires and new motor and swap new links/ shocks in for starters
Phil, which would you recommend the rochobby cheyenne 6x6 or rochobby magnum? I like the look of the magnum, but it looks like the 6x6 might be more fun. What do you think? Or is there another rochobby you would recommend?
Rc driver says that this isn’t the same as the atlas. He thought it would be, but when shown side by side, this model has a different design than the atlas does. Also… great job on the driver! Haha!
"Climb" mode's awesome! Why would we ever switch it off? What a shame that Roc Hobbies got the sseat height so wrong. Congrats on sorting yours out. Lights - what are they thinking? Why don't they listen? It's simple; wire the rears to the sane feed as the fronts and ditch the ridiculous indicators, or let us switch them off. Otherwise, it's a lovely thing, this...
I got your back friend,,R/C Driver 1st.ha ha. I'm going to grill them for it! 👍 Great video have a good day PS was very funny because if you watch RC driver video of it he lost the same screw in the same spot that you did exactly for the back roll cage his is bouncing around inside as well.
I totally dug your montage at 10min. Normally I don’t comment but that was really well done. Was that your phone? Maybe next time slow it down just a bit more and a smaller f-stop to add a bit more reality. But all in all it was super! 🙌
Where can I but the new version ESC? For the Lc80? My lights started doing a slow fade in and out. All the ones I find on foreign sites are not available for some reason.
Might be just me, but I just can't like 6x6. They look nice but they run clunky, but awesome job putting that action figure in there! Btw, which figures do you use? I usually use 80s and 90s gi Joes.
congrats on getting the driver in! looks great! however, how long did it take you to find those screws to mount the roll cage? were they easy to reach once the body was off? cheers! see you in the next vid.
How do you guys charge your batteries. My usb charger is rubbish and refuses to charge from PC, can be weird charging from an ‘apple’ style wall charger.
The problem i have with the bonnet on my regular Jeep is that it's difficult to open. Almost broke a nail trying to open it. It definitely stays shut. So maybe is a quality control issue.
Let's see if I guess where was this video filmed...Gretwell Road, Lincoln and that plane it's the Boeing Sentry E-3, practicing landing onto the RAF Waddington 😉. I might try my RC car there, good spot.
Personally I don't mind there not being a driver figure in an rc. I guess in my mind, as long as there isn't a figure, I am the driver in there. But then, I also prefer for rc windows to be either cut out completely, or just solid grey or black.
@@TomleyRC hmm, maybe with time I'll find myself leaning that way a bit then. But, it does seem that with crawlers , the scale realism is much more important to people than it is with a racer or a basher, I do notice that. I guess every crawler is little bit of a show car in that way. So, yeah I guess I kinda get that.
Rcdriver_online used some tape to hold the cage as he had same installation issue. Shame it’s such a design issue. It looks an amazing little truck. Can you add oil in those shocks or friction only?
Is there a way to be able to ask you some direct questions? I love your content and I'm looking for a $229> crawler/trail rig. Can you help me plz? I'm a newb with little knowledge
Interesting that they chose a 55 turn 050 motor in this compared to the 100 turn 050 in the atlas. You'd think they'd want the extra torque considering it's the same chassis as the atlas with the same gear reduction but increased weight of the hard body. Looks alright either way 🤓👍👌
@@TomleyRC yes but it's a wrangler not a gladiator( at least from what I had seen). I may just have to find a toy body and make some thing work. Going g for a fpv office crawler to run paperwork around 😁
To be honest the Chevy K10 is one of my favourite RC’s (your fault) although the postman has just delivered my Maverick Quantum Flux R (your fault again)… hmmm actually I do love my D12 (once again your fault)…
Can you not just splice the rear lights into the front? Normally something I'd done years ago but was never an issue! My wee cousins a flight mechanic for the black cats does same as you she's just made Sargent well proud of her! Tough wee bugger now likes lol
@@TomleyRC thats good news though, i wasn't a fan of the atlas transmission, have burnt up a couple now. and they have become almost impossible to find the parts for. not sure what FMS is doing there but they've been removed from the site
Okay.. it seems it’s not exactly like the 6x6 Atlas… may bad. It’s just as good though 👌
My 5yo took over my K10 and loves the bed; currently waiting on driveshaft parts. Would you recommend they Cheyenne over the Atlas?
I hate my Atlas, maybe I hot a lemon but nothing but issues, week drives haft broke and super underpowered yet still broke, esc fried also. Ran it maybe 3 times lmao.
Where's the driver tho....

much appreciation for getting that driver in ; much more scale realism, and more fun to drive.
Cheers dude. Appreciate it
Agreed, driverless trucks just dont do it in the same way for me
Ghost Driver here to compliment the efforts! Excellent video sir!
Haha.. 😅 I’ll have to watch ‘Ghost Rider’ and get some quotes from it ready for the next video
8:40 the poor ladybug! 🤣
Yes, I was going to do a little chase scene with dramatic music 😅… but I was running out of time on the edit haha
That's a really great looking truck. And well done fitting that driver in that stupid space!! Looks like me in my wife's Fiesta!!! 😎👍🏻

Another neat little truck. Like your driver. That's why we love the hobby. Always some little or big modification.
Love that collection dude!
10:14am in arkansas usa!!!
Morning 😎
Love your videos Tomley. I appreciate you and your channel.
That truck looks 🔥
BRO! You own the driver shiz! Think iv watched them all now and you're the only one 🫡
Cheers!! Definitely going to look into these for my next rc purchase! Can't wait!! Thank you sir!
Have you seen yikong 6101 6x6 yet? Tempted to have one next to my absima sherpa but the new axial SCX24 are calling me for some reason lol

I've seen some rock twist from the transmission at the end there 😜
Yes haha
They look class to be fair fms and roc hobby always on point with the small scale stuff, there was no need for the huge boulder at the end haha
Yeah… I was on the way back to the car and thought I’d see how much it would carry 😅
Always good to see your videos mate ....cheers😄😄😄
Wow absolutely love the 6x6 body! 👍 Never bothered personally with drivers but I can definitely understand the appeal with the scale effect of having one. 👍
I never used to…. It recently it’s been a thing for me haha

Hello there Varg
R.i.p little lady bird 8:40
Picked one up "used" (guy literally drove it once according to him & I believe him by the look of the truck) for $50 on Offerup!
Wicked mud shot
Awesome film at the end 👌 ❤👏
Always have room for one more 👍

Thank you Michael
Rock crawler for sure 😆👍🏻
Really nice car.... and driver ;)

That looks badass!!! 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Any chance you could tell where the quarry is that you got to please? It looks an awesome place for a bash
I want one of those new 6x6
I love all the fms stuff, great reviews!
It's pronounced like shy-ann. I love this company. I have the !/6 jeep,the atlas 6x6 and the Glacier. Love them all!!
Pretty nice looking truck, Tomley! 😃
Awesome ride there!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Awesome truck! Wish the seats would of been thought about more before production. But otherwise that looks like a killer truck
Yes, shame… it would have been perfect with the correct sized interior
Love way this looks, I might actually pick this one up, my c14 needs a brother! 👍🏻🍻
It took me sooooo long to get one in my mogrich unimog…but soo worth it
Haha will definitely comment the other videos! Cheers!
👍🏽 👍🏽 Have a good week 🇫🇷
HI PHIL I'VE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING A REVIEW OF THIS TRUCK.🇬🇧🕊️✌🏼🤩
Cheers Mike 🤟
What a nice day job you have
Sometimes it good.. but I’ve been doing it quite a while now.. so can be a little dull at times
not bad,reminds me of the mn99s with the body off,👌👍👍
To do upgrades to it where would I find them? I love but like everyone else ide want to lift it add bigger tires and new motor and swap new links/ shocks in for starters
What do you do now the AEWACs have gone from RAF Waddington ?

Yes, I’ve seen it’s not exactly the same. Seems to perform just as well 👍
I just realised that the channel's logo is the eat15 rc car!😉🙃😉🤭 And i wanted to ask if it is the brushed or the brushless!😋
It’s actually a Honda City Turbo 👌
@@TomleyRC i know !just a joke!
amazing car! fms its the same with rochobby?

Thanks Phil. This whole video was shot on my Sony ZV1 👍
Great, but when’s the Ez rc one coming out?
Pretty cool little rig I'm yet to have a FMS or rockhobby / or even a scx 24 I'm leaning towards the scx 🙄
The SCX24 is certainly the most capable out of the little 1/24 scale. And they have some nice hop ups. FMS are more scale though 👌
@@TomleyRC that's my thoughts also 😊 🤟
Where can I but the new version ESC? For the Lc80? My lights started doing a slow fade in and out. All the ones I find on foreign sites are not available for some reason.
Is there still a bunch of broken shopping trolleys their ?
Might be just me, but I just can't like 6x6. They look nice but they run clunky, but awesome job putting that action figure in there! Btw, which figures do you use? I usually use 80s and 90s gi Joes.
Did you actually open the axles to see if it has metal gears? I’m hoping it does like their licensed Land Cruiser and not plastic like the Katana.
congrats on getting the driver in! looks great! however, how long did it take you to find those screws to mount the roll cage? were they easy to reach once the body was off? cheers! see you in the next vid.
How do you guys charge your batteries. My usb charger is rubbish and refuses to charge from PC, can be weird charging from an ‘apple’ style wall charger.
No chance of mud here. You'll need to bring your own 😅

Where’s your offsider?
🤷🏼♂️
so is rochobby the same company as fms?
one of these days Ill get a crawler but I gotta get buggies and bashers out of my system =)
commented on RC guy and Rc Kicks! lol
Haha
Man those Roc Hobby crawlers looks great. Curious what kind of run time you get out of this one?
Edit: watched to the end 20 mins, ty
😎🤟
Could you please tell me what GPS system you have to see the speed on your phone?
SkyRC GSM 020
Keep up the amazing work buddy love your videos I watch them all the time I'd love a decent rc basher but the wife says no lol
Thanks Jason. Appreciate it
Phil, can I ask where do you find the driver figures? 🤫
Just cut a sunroof in the top for easy driver replacement!
Haha
