    Looks awesome! By far my favorite release in a while. I have added and subtracted several upgrades from brushless to OD, UD, link riser, and wheels/tires. The reduced spur/pinion gear and removed shock springs and bump stops were my best performance gain. I also added center pull-down straps to keep it planted on the rocks. 64-degree incline are not a problem.

    Man it's your money but I'm living on a tight budget so my hobby is on a tighter one, I'm glad to have what I am able to get, but I can't see these kind of expenses for me... I mean a 1:1 would be great to go all out with...😂

    It would be nice to have weight on the inside of the tire as well. This is a great video.👍👍👍

    I added the overdrive gears in my front axels in my UTB18 and my 1/10 CAPRA. One of the best upgrades as far as performance I've added yet. The Furitek brushless and new reciever for my Spektrum radio is next in the UTB18 to utilize the rear steer better.

      Yeah, driving the stock was good, but then drop in the Furitek system and just wow.

    I was about to buy one of these when the I saw the $299 Axial SCX10 Bronco.
    It’ll be one of the next ones though!!

      Yeah, that was a killer deal on the Bronco. Good choice there.

    Sure have a lot of axle threads left. Throw some wider hexes on there!

    I got interested in the Harvey about a year ago when a buddy of mine showed me his axial wraith. The thing was super fun to mess around with so last week. I finally got around to buying a utb18 and I’m hooked. My problem is the closest hobby shop is a 3 Hour Dr. away from me because I live in a very rural area. Is there any forums that have a lot of good information that could help somebody such as myself who is wanting to build his own rig

      I don't know of any forums, but there's several subbreddits on reddit related to rc cars and rc crawling

    What size are those wheels? 1.9? I know they aren’t made anymore but curious on their size. Thanks in advance.

    Without changing the gearing do you get any more wheel speed with the Furitek system?

    Is there something I'm missing? All the youtubers are doing 1/18 capera videos

    • @rcdriver
      @rcdriver  Год назад +1

      I just felt like doing the project and then saw CCXRC posted a video same day. Just a coincidence. It is a rig I enjoy though. Perfect for the rock wall in my backyard.

    • @redndeyes

      It's a fun size without being too small like the trxm and scx24 lines. Some of us have man hands 😆

    • @louisrodriguez6499
      @louisrodriguez6499 Год назад

      Yea I've been looking at them but I think I want a scx24 to start, I like how upgradable they are

    I dunno about dropping 5 Benjamins on a $250 RC, but the Furitek IS tempting.

    • @johnfaustus1
      @johnfaustus1 Год назад +1

      1. It's $550, and that's before tax+shipping.
      2. He's going to more than make up the cost from the monetization of this video; that was the whole point.
      3. Furitek has been, for the last year, spamming every RC channel on RUclips - I hear their 'terms and conditions' are quite "favorable" to reviewers. He (and all but the most righteous) couldn't say no.
