@BazFairbrother4 күн бұрын
The defender needs the discovery wheels fitting on it, they'd look much more scale. Could you do a video showing the wheels swapped over?
@rcnewbКүн бұрын
While it’s not a video, I did make a post with photos showing the tires swapped between the two vehicles. kzbin.infoUgkxSSpR-Y2ROPh9BXdvNgAjRiyJanL7fvZ6?si=bMWfrdsW7rnMXWPU

The D90 body looks good, but the size of the tires makes it look toyish. I ordered the Range Rover model but my order confirmation reflected Discovery, so I emailed them about it. I've been carving out a 1/24 track in my backyard(our soil is loaded with rock, so I need only shovel off a few inches of soil to expose it), and one of these would be great on it.

the suspension is perfect for individual preference, you can stiffen it in several ways, it probably comes with little to no oil in the shocks as well. I can't wait till they stop giving them away and sell more, I'll give it 6 months, the upgrades and recommendation videos should be plentiful by then, might be a sale by then too....

I am a huge S1 E2 sport quattro fan and I cant wait to get this model. I already have its smaller brother which is equally awesome. I just wish they would have done the correct speedline 5 spoke wheels for them. I'm going to try the kyosho turbo scorpion wheels when it arrives as they are the nearest thing looks wise. Hopefully Carisma may offer upgrade wheels at some point. It will also be getting spot light pods on the front to add some detail and also door handle decals from the Tamiya Golf mk2 kit as they shared the same handles in full size.

your camera position is not good. can only see the car mostly, not your work 😞 would be a good idea to switch to bearings if the transmission is open.
@rcnewb15 күн бұрын
Thank you for the feedback! I’m still getting the hang of the top-down camera positioning and noted a few areas where I was working off-camera. I’ll work on improving that going forward. For the bearings, I’ll need to order a few more sets and will overhaul the transmission with those in the future.

@bravo0105Ай бұрын
I happened upon this brand while browsing and this particular model caught my eye, aesthetically and especially because of the higher voltage rating over the Subaru. What's disturbing is how easily those body posts broke; the impacts were off camera but didn't seem that bad. I think of the body-post plastic on Tamiya, Kyosho, and other brands and that's the last part I'd expect to break on their cars considering the lexan body will flex on impact; Carisma must be using a harder and hence more brittle plastic for those posts.
@rcnewbАй бұрын
I was hoping to capture the impact (actually, I was hoping for no impact whatsoever, but…🤷♂️), however I wasn’t fast enough. The body posts are more on the brittle side, and I was worried about them before I ran the car. That said, there are other body post options that provide more give and are easy enough to swap onto this chassis. Broken posts aside, this is a fun car and I’m looking forward to running it more (and harder) soon.
@johnm5131Ай бұрын
hopefully Charisma fixes the quality issues and also spaces out the wheels to fill the proper width of the body!
@rcnewbАй бұрын
I’d have to check how much space is left on the axles, but a wider wheel hex might be possible to give the wheels more width. Outside of the brittle nature of the body posts, this car should be able to withstand more than its share of bumps.

Just got one of these rigs. Charged the battery up and my run time is only 5-8 minutes on average. Seems very low. I’m seeing other people saying they are getting much longer. Also when the battery drains the truck starts to stutter. When under throttle it will go, stop, then go again. Maybe I got a bad battery? Any help would be appreciated
