[@MysticRiverRC]

[@JacobScherer]

[@andyrichey1192]

👍👍 awesome Matt, I’m here watching 4:20 PM Friday, December 27, sorry to hear you were sick over the holidays. Hope you still had a merry Christmas. Yeah, I love my scout.11 also got the green beautiful color. Love the metal flake in it. Waiting on the red cat brass parts mostly the front I did get front and back diff covers. I also got the reefs brass 99 servo.

[@360woodierc]

Very nice. Wheels and tires look great as well.

[@2fmrc]

@@360woodierc thanks! I sort of just took them off another truck and tossed them on but really liked them once I tried them lol

[@gabrielbeach5426]

That’s a game changer for sure. Thanks for sharing.

I’ve been waiting to see your video. You’re the best man my friend always ❤

Another great vid, bud. Hope your Christmas was good. Cheers

i tried i generic micro Komodo( an 1806 1800kv) and it works flawlessly w MBL32, but its geared way down, super smooth and 4 mph top speed

[@crashandcynder]

I literally just converted my scout 18 to brushless today.. wow

[@crawlerballer]

Dang that thing is slow 😍. Course looks nice too 💪

[@2fmrc]

@@crawlerballer thanks man! I really need to redo the course. It’s actually pretty rough shape atm lol

[@crawlerballer]

@@2fmrcyour course is in rough shape? I’ll be right over 🤪

[@2fmrc]

@ dude! Come on out! It needs your help! Lol it’s just been this way awhile and I guess I’m getting sick of it. Plus I really need to compact the dirt. It’s hard to start up a lot of things cause it just digs a hole 😆

[@Gibsonlife573]

My only thing is is this iPad 4 of the Python pros and I've always had trouble with them getting warm when I ran a higher KV motor

[@snörre23]

I just bought a Python and a Lizard Pro as Backup. Wonder why they had to size up from the small Lizard Ultimate to the Python and a year later release a reasonably small one. Will buy one anyway for builds like Echo that really don't have space. No need in a huge truck with a body.

[@DoubleADay]

Is it smoother than the hw mini24 setup?

[@axellness]

can you use the stock Ascent 18 receiver/controller for the furitek combo?

[@2fmrc]

@@axellness not this one. You’ll need a new transmitter & receiver for it. This dumborc has been pretty solid for me if you’re looking for a cheap setup. amzn.to/3BJUpda

[@AnySumptionBanter]

Xmas and I'm reading ppl posting their brushless don't run. Need to tune them

[@vdel9036]

Half a sugar cube ! 😊 Now, have to find a rig small enough to make it indispensable.😄 Where did you find this Radiolink micro-receiver for only $10 ?

[@2fmrc]

@@vdel9036 looks like the are around $12 each now but I got them from Aliexpress. I just found this on AliExpress: $15.00 | RadioLink RC Receiver R8FGH R8FG R8EF R8FM R8SM R8XM R7FG R6FG R6F R4FGM 2.4G Receiver a.aliexpress.com/_m0qDVzt

I got on the way the new Hobby wing 24. I was hoping to go into my scout, but will it work with the 18th scale?

It should not be a problem Andy

I know that little motor really came alive when I put it on 4S 100 for certain because I've always had trouble with any pancake motor just given up you know they just don't have the torque that the b a m motor for mofo

[@jasonbecker4997]

Whole lot of “that’s what she said” jokes to start this video.

[@2fmrc]

@@jasonbecker4997 it was hard to hold back on all of them to be honest 😆

[@Gibsonlife573]

Dude that mini Komodo so the small pancake I put it on a 13 tooth mod for pinion when I believe that's a 4222 or 41 whatever it is spur on Forest and you want to talk about it rocket ship with all kinds of torque do you feel like the microbes are on the decline
