SOLD!! No idea how I ve missed this upload🙈🙈 That colour is stunning in the daylight,online pics do nt do it justice. Ally wheels and new tyres are always ordered with the truck for me,followed not long after by brushless.I do it purely to add the weight down low,I also fit weights to the wheels👍🤣🤣if the electronics in this are as good as the centaur they won r be getting changed. Thanks for the link mate👍👍

Hi Rich. This is a pre-painted RTR and the official FTX description only says "Grey". But it's very similar to the colour I sprayed the UMG 4x4 which was Tamiya PS-63 Bright Gun Metal. Thanks for watching mate and I hope you and your family have a very good Christmas 🎅🏻🎄🙂👍🏼

They may not be the strongest but ftx have got to be the best value for money Rc on the market.They ve really upped their game with these new releases too,I ve just bought the centaur,had a short run with it today but did nt film it.Will have a proper run over Xmas and willl upload it to here.Early signs were that it’s a very capable rig.

The Trooper is a bit top heavy out of the box but I replaced the stock plastic wheels and glued tyres with metal beadlocks and Axial tyres on mine and they helped with that. I don't really feel the need to upgrade anything else. I'm also impressed that it comes with a full interior, driver, and inner fenders as stock for the low price too. This is the link to the video I made with mine kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmm4pZuXrpqsnK8 🙂👍🏼

@hollyhillrc
@hollyhillrc 2 күн бұрын
Hi Lou. I'd say basically it's a regular lexan body. The roof of the cab and bonnet/hood are good and quite sturdy. It handled a few tumbles well without any damage. The lexan is thinner at the bottom of the cab and there was already a small split at the rear corner behind the left hand door when I bought it. But this doesn't actually show in the video.

Thanks Mal. The Injora motor has a low growl which I quite like compared to some of the high squeal motors in my other RC's. The GoPro's mic also picked up the ESC's whine which I didn't notice so much when I was filming the run. I got fed up trying to find suitable music to mask these sounds in editing so I don't bother so much now.

Hi, thanks for watching. This one was a pre-release demo model sent to a friend by an RC retailer in the U.K to make a promotional video for KZbin for them kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqisZHt8o7VqbaM It was supplied with RGT decals on and he was asked to take those off and apply some FTX decals that they also supplied. So the FTX & RGT versions for sale to the public now are essentially the same as far as I'm aware. I bought this from him a few months ago when he'd finished filming with it.

What a comprehensive upgrade job! Now it's the equivalent of an MN Models KM. You did a great job of narrating the video, too, explaining clearly what you did, and why. I did find my myself wondering whether your clever use of shrink-wrap to secure the plastic leaves to the steel one might have stiffened up the rear suspension. I'm glad you have continued the old tradition of putting WPL wheels and grippy soft kit tyres on MNs : )

Hi Del. Thank you very much for your kind words my friend. That's a very good point about the leaf springs and heat shrink. I did it because I didn't like the way they looked so unrealistic out of the box, but now you mention it they could be stiffer as a result of the change.

Hi Del. Thank you very much for your kind words. The leaves on the ground are even more enormous this year for some reason, to the point where I haven't bothered running anything because it's hard to see the trails in the woods and it would be difficult to make a scale looking video. I hope you are healthy and enjoying life my friend.

@hollyhillrc At some point we have to admit defeat and just make a nice RC run vid : ) I am well, thank you, Derek. I haven't been posting videos because my laptop seems to be very cross about something and won't allow me to edit footage. I'll have the software open and be working happily away, and the laptop will abruptly begin opening folders, playing videos, running other software, etc. I believe the machine to be possessed by demons. I have tried exorcising these by gently puffing herbal smoke into the cooking slots but it hasn't helped. I think I need to convince a young person to come round and offer it counselling, that, or take it to a repair place. I'm reluctant to do that, as they'll just cheerfully go ahead and format the bl**dy thing, and I just know that if we do that I shall end up regretting the loss of some priceless footage or something.

Good to know you are ok Del. I lost a lot of important stuff when my PC stopped working a few years ago. I hadn't backed anything up elsewhere and I was really upset about that. I had to replace the PC and I also bought a Western Digital portable hard drive and started to back up everything on to it. But that packed up soon after the warranty expired just over a year later. "Go figure". So I invested in a portable SSD drive. They're expensive but they're more reliable than the cheaper portable hard drives which have little CD drives inside. An SSD drive is basically big SD card with no moving parts, so less to go wrong. I have two now and I back everything up on both of them. So it's a double back up procedure, and double safe in this house now Del. Can't be too safe mate 😀 Hope you get your laptop sorted one way or another soon 👍🏼👍🏼
