I've got a bash video on the Asuga. This thing is certifiably beast mode. I've got the ADU chassis and braces. And use Kraton 6S EXB V2 Shocks. With M2C Shock stamdoffs. And Custom RC Upgrades towers. Love this rig!
Man that really means a lot that you reach out and ask how I'm doing and appreciate that you enjoy our content that means a lot brother. I filmed about three or four new videos I just haven't had the time to edit them unfortunately and sometimes there's gaps in my production because I work probably about 60 plus hours a week so I try to get it in when I can when I'm on the road sometimes I can bash between appointments but then sometimes editing the videos and getting them up for y'all 60 to 70 hours a week five kids I try to get it done when I can but that's life it can be busy sometimes I'll try to see if I can't get my xmax video out here in the next week or so
Yea my friends don't seem to understand. Most of them seem to work on their cars only out of necessity. They would be horrified at the thought of mounting ALL m2c/ADU parts. They also think upgrades are only good if the old part broke. Which i sort of agree on; but there's upgrades that help save your car. And most of the upgrades available would count for that, at least in my opinion 😆
Yeah man some upgrade beforehand because they know the punishment the rig is going to put through, I sometimes do this because I'm not gentle with my RC's, but if I'm sent an RC like 8 was this Asuga from Corally, then I run it a few times with no upgrades to show how great even the RTR setup is. But if you enjoy warming up at +100ft or you land bad at times (Myself BOTH🤣) then your gonna need some help..... I need a lot of help usually 🤣🤣 But honestly if I got the chassis and center top brace I might have been good..... But I thought I'd show full Beefcake and upgrade path recommended. Hope your enjoying the channel brother, see ya round
@3SonsRC great videos man i watched 2 in a row last night! Such a small channel but awesome 'content' even though i don't like using that word 😆 great vids, i needed some beefcaking advice 😆
muhaha...for me as a 100% beginner it looks like you change everything of the asuga ^^ it can be only 5 parts to have a full car ^^ thx for the vid ! ;)
Your right, it's a lot, but you definitely don't have to do all this, that's why I listed my suggested upgrade path/order and at the end said the only important ones if you need it are the chassis and maybe the center bracing.... But this is a full Beefcake video to show all the upgrades you can get if you got all the strength upgrades. There are upgrades like the hubs and a few other bits I left out because I don't think there necessary at all. For most the chassis is enough. I am a pretty agressive Sender and honestly all my rigs are fully Beefcake M2C rigs with other parts because I've found I break way less stuff with these upgrades, but just upgrade to WHAT YOU CAN at the time (cost) or what is necessary for YOU😎👍 Hope this helps and that your enjoying the channel, see ya round brother
We all know nothing last big bashing ! nothing ! So why not swap everything 😂 been there twice since covid ...lve settled down for a couple of years but when l saw the 1/7 scale asuga l got that itch again 👌🏼😋 Luckily we have you guys to show us around with upgrades ..keep it beefcake 🤙
Appreciate your time and comment brother, yeah man for what I like to do the only rig I have been able to keep stock is the Hobao MTX.... That rig is tough as hell. Shock shafts are the only weakness but it's easy to make that better. M2C is my go to but was nice to see the full treatment from ADU on this rig. And it's an amazing build, so clean. Hope your enjoying the channel brother, see ya round
@@3SonsRCHow are the Adu products Its a mixed bag? Some swear by them products others say junk? Keep us updated on the Asuga build bro; I need to beefcake my Asuga but lm still hesitant with Adu Stay safe🤙
@@MuscleAKAOzzy some of the best value. I don't swear by them. M2C is Most proven over time.... I haven't had much time With them but value is fantastic, there's some innovation there, and yes they hold up well.... We will see as the months and years pass... Definitely worth a shot. I still trust M2C most of course
@@MuscleAKAOzzy absolutely.... Great stuff. I'm just saying M2C is most proven in my book, but yes yes yes ADU makes GREAT stuff, the fit and finish is tops, really competitive pricing, some innovations there as well. I'd say better than HR, GPM (they COPY so much and innovate little, and cheaper than Vitavon with comparable quality. Yes I need to get out there again soon. I had a short run the other day and killed the servo early so no video. See ya round brother
Have you settled on diff weights for your Asuga man? I finally pulled trigger got one of these coming. Sorting through also all these wicked upgrades lol. What size shim kit ya need for these diffs to btw?
I haven't touched the diffs honestly, I don't want to loose handling it's soooo good. If I did anything maybe 3-400 in the center because sometimes in the air she's hard to pull around but if you have the right tires it's bearable. I went my usual 60/500/30 on my XTR and honestly I think it handled better before.... I think I should have just thickened the center a little. You go too thick with certain RC F/R and the power don't shift to the other wheels as well so it pushes in turns or flips. I'm still keeping stock for now, maybe 350 in the middle? But maybe I gotta drive my XTR more to adjust, just the other day I ran it after my Asuga and the XTR was way worse handling. Haven't needed shims yet bet I think there the same as the Arrma ones for the outside of the diff crown side. Hope your enjoying the channel brother, see ya round
These ADU parts are tank bro, holding up VERY WELL. I have only broken an arm and bent a stock Hinge pin using it since, so ADU parts have been perfect. The truck was great without them, but if your being stupid with the sends and/or landing bad at times like I do, then for a full upgrade system there is no better IMHO than ADU for the Asuga right now, M2C has some bits but if you want full Beefcake this is where to go for the Asuga. Appreciate your time, hope your enjoying the channel brother, see ya round
Na bro, Duratrax Lockup 2.8 would be what you search for. The Skeeter tires are great too and cheap on Jenny's RC. The duratrax are discontinued I think🤔 Hope your enjoying the channel brother, see ya round
Power is plenty when geared up IMHO, problem is gets a bit hot even with fans, so might get a 1650 but not in a rush really, stock electronics I think are great, better than any Arrma or Traxxas for sure! Servo is just ok
I had to use one shim... The stock had two shim but it locked up when I used two. So just one on the Crown gear side. Hope your enjoying the channel brother, see ya round
@@3SonsRC yeah I see you got the center chassis I ended up getting the full chassis too someone's a little heavier I think well maybe not cuz I don't have the bulkhead yet so I don't know It just feels heavy I guess feels solid
I've got a bash video on the Asuga. This thing is certifiably beast mode. I've got the ADU chassis and braces. And use Kraton 6S EXB V2 Shocks. With M2C Shock stamdoffs. And Custom RC Upgrades towers. Love this rig!

@@3SonsRC sincerely appreciate your response. 👍
I never heard of ADU after market parts, but then again I'm new to the hobby. How do the ADU parts stand up?
These ADU parts are tank bro, holding up VERY WELL. I have only broken an arm and bent a stock Hinge pin using it since, so ADU parts have been perfect.

@@3SonsRC Thanks for the feedback. Do you know what's a good, reliable place where I could purchase these ADU parts?
@@Joe-h1e NP brother, AliExpress pretty much the only option 🎯
Do you have a part number for the wheels/tires?
Na bro,
Duratrax Lockup 2.8 would be what you search for. The Skeeter tires are great too and cheap on Jenny's RC.
The duratrax are discontinued I think🤔
Hope your enjoying the channel brother, see ya round
Curious man, now some time has passed. You happy enough with the stock esc/motor for power setup or you going to go HW6&1650?
Power is plenty when geared up IMHO, problem is gets a bit hot even with fans, so might get a 1650 but not in a rush really, stock electronics I think are great, better than any Arrma or Traxxas for sure! Servo is just ok
Did you have to shim the diffs with the ADU bulkhead/diff cases?
I had to use one shim... The stock had two shim but it locked up when I used two.
So just one on the Crown gear side.
Hope your enjoying the channel brother, see ya round
@@3SonsRC thanks!
It's heavy now
Might be 1-1.5 more pounds I think it's worth it. I will weigh it and post in the next video
Yep
@@3SonsRC yeah I see you got the center chassis I ended up getting the full chassis too someone's a little heavier I think well maybe not cuz I don't have the bulkhead yet so I don't know It just feels heavy I guess feels solid
Just did my full Asuga check it out
Will do brother.... Thanks for your time and comment
@@3SonsRC absolutely
