BRX02 6x6 D110: EPIC 2-Speed Super-Scale RC!

[@doubledome2076]

Nice build & Great Video ‼️👍👍🦾🦾

[@YoShImUrA53]

Never been a real fan of 6x6, besides their novelty and engineering. But that is precisely the appeal of this rig, how amazing BR's engineering shows in every detail, makes it quite appealing even to a non-6x6 guy.

[@RCTNT]

Agreed. It's very nice stuff both in the build and the operation thereof. I like it a lot!

[@bcochener]

All I hear are great things about these BR kits. Great video as always. Cheers mate!

[@RCTNT]

Quality is the word. Thanks

[@RS-sv3bl]

Great video as always. High production values. And you introduced me to Boom Racing - these trucks look trick!

[@RCTNT]

Oh nice, you hadn't heard of them before? Do yourself a favor and check out my BRX01 video. The detail in the extra parts they offer, especially in the drive train, will blow you away! kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3jZnIiko7p-h6M

[@muskokamike127]

I want one....in 1/1 scale though hahaha. yeah, that chassis is a work of art....Funny you brought up the spring rate, I was going to mention that when watching the video. The springs seem to be a little stiff. I think that's because in regular vehicles, the springs are dual rate: they have a "comfort" zone as well as a "load" zone. The drive train is off the hook. You could tell the quality because when you were turning one wheel, you could only hear the motor turning not the drive train, trans, etc. amazing bit of kit that one.

[@RCTNT]

It's incredibly smooth, just a work of art. I'm a fan.

[@joelberones9565]

Awesome!

[@joelberones9565]

The quick body release is a boom racing idea 💡

[@RCTNT]

Nice. It's great!

[@dogtownfilms1976]

Aí sim!!! Top!!!

[@kevinbreaker2683]

Nice 👍 🚛🚚

[@cabaretrc]

So beautiful may I know what transmitter and receiver did you use

[@RCTNT]

Everything's in the video description, but it was a Flysky GT5.

[@cabaretrc]

@@RCTNT sorry perhaps I miss that column. Thanks alot

[@RCTNT]

No problem, my friend

[@fishnrc294]

I glued a magnet body clip & one of them was the incorrect polarity I was so mad at myself! This rig is awesome is it just a trail truck or can it crawl? I like the look & sound of it. I’m hoping you get the new Sendero trail truck. I’d love to see it on the rock problem track. I just got mine actually a hour ago & it sits in front of me ready to pull out of the box. I also just got the new 1:18 Scale Capra & waited on my TRX M Defender. It’s a good time to be a RC enthusiast. But that truck man it’s on a higher level of quality thanks for sharing it.

[@RCTNT]

Ha! Those three are all on my shopping list but they're not available here yet. Waiting. Waiting... Enjoy yours, that's a great selection!

[@STP_RIDGELINE]

That is a beautiful trail truck!! You should think of building a true to scale track just for the true to scale trucks it would be a nice addition to your vids just a food for thought? Awesome vid as always mi familia 👍👊🔥💯🍻

[@RCTNT]

Thanks. Yeah I've thought about it. When we move it'll be to a place with dedicated space for this stuff. I've got tracks planned for various classes then. Meanwhile, at this place I may do that. There's a scale appropriate course I can make that weaves through the current rocks. I should get a comparison happening, you're right.

[@STP_RIDGELINE]

@@RCTNT AWESOME MI BIG BRO 👍👊🔥💯

[@romeoblanco9569]

I bought the regular Brx02 leaf version a couple of weeks ago and still haven’t finished it. I also fitted the swd transfer case, my brother has the link version and I also got the brx01. Now I kinda wanna get the swb version.

[@RCTNT]

Nice! I am looking forward to the swb version and it'll be the leaf one for scale accuracy (running the old series body they're releasing soon).

[@lizardsticks]

Talk of the Devil 🤣

[@roblowrie1969]

That's stunning, and much better looking than the TRX6. I suppose they're different beasts though? 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@RCTNT]

Entirely different, yep. Trx6 runs rings around this thing in capability, while this thing looks stunning :)

[@roblowrie1969]

@@RCTNT the scale looke are awesome with this. 👍🏻

[@elduderinolebowski5411]

Damn that's cool. I want one. All that scale complexity, precision, and accuracy. That's a showcase model if there ever was one. We need to see the tires from this in your next tire shootout, I think. They look good... but how good are they really?

[@RCTNT]

Ok, will do.

[@mitsuman5555]

Looks like a high-quality alternative to RC4WD

[@RCTNT]

Very much so. Priced accordingly too, but that's accurate. The drive train is no comparison, but the bodirs are similar.

[@RickyD1968]

Do they offer this truck with the steering wheel on the left side ???

[@RCTNT]

No idea, sorry. It's common in the UK and Australia but the wheel is on the right. Do they sell the Defender in the USA? If so, perhaps there's a dash option for it too. Have a look on Asiatees (link in deception) and see what you can find.

[@zm6658]

Unfortunately I can't decide between a link BRX02 or a Vanquish Pro. I know very different but priced similarly. Excited for your BRX02 4x4 finish. Also do you think they'll release the SWB newer body defender (same as current D110 they make but that isn't the wagon) when they come out with the shorter chassis?

[@RCTNT]

In your shoes I'd be basing my decision on available driving locations - what's suited for the BRX vs the more capable VP? Also on what my friends run, if I planned on driving with them regularly. (More fun if similar rigs, IMO). Then again, it's hard to pass up a tidy scale rig, isn't it! Team Raffee Co. already have a D90 body, so when the Boom Racing SWB chassis kit releases in ?March next year, my expectation is that they'll bundle it with this: www.teamraffeeco.com/-2872 (I don't know this for sure but call it an educated guess). Also, keep in mind they're releasing that older style body soon I mentioned in the video here. The shorter one would presumably fit the SWB chassis too.

[@zm6658]

@@RCTNT Great advice. Thanks for your time on that. Also great work. By far my favorite RC channel so far... the least polished- in a good way. At 31, and with no shortage of hobbies I've grown to become quite reliant on KZbin for, it's refreshing to see a channel less seemingly biased and made out to sell products to us. I'm a bit skeptical of some of the other RC channels. But you're killing me here. Just found your vid on the Phoenix. I think I'm just going to go that route. What a kit! This is also my first experience with RC. I build models and am a tinkerer on small diesel tractors and the like but need something a little cleaner so I can help out with the baby without smelling like noxious chemicals!

[@RCTNT]

Thank you and I understand. You can't really go wrong with either kit.

[@georgeschidiac9125]

how are you managing the antenna of the receiver ?

[@RCTNT]

From memory I coiled it inside the receiver box. This isn't ideal for maximum range, but for a crawler or trail rig you really don't need it.

[@dolananbapak-bapak]

😍😍😍

[@kenneth_jensen]

So, do you think this will go with a TRX-6?🙂

[@RCTNT]

It'll compliment it beautifully in your RC garage, sure: this is the scale driver while the TRX6 is the capable one. Drive the one you feel like, as they're quite different. But if you mean, can they drive together? I mean, they *could*, but the BRX02 will be vastly less capable than the TRX6, again due to that spectrum of Scale to Capability. As long as your expectations match that, go for it!

[@kenneth_jensen]

@@RCTNT sorry, wasn't specific enough, my bad. Do you think this BRX02 Defender body will fit the TRX-6 chassis? You will get the best of both worlds. Although the TRX-6 will probably crawl a little worse 🙂

[@RCTNT]

Ah I see. I can't get out and measure for you tonight sorry, but go look at the track width for the TRX axles and for the BRX90 axles that run under the BRX02. I'm pretty sure you'll find the trx6 is significantly wider. And the extra weight would hurt its capability considerably, if that matters to you.

[@kenneth_jensen]

​@@RCTNT yea I see that. It can be done, but I won't do it. I like the performance og the TRX-6 👍🙂

[@RCTNT]

It's the reason I haven't changed mine, too! It's so epic

[@trevorcourt1403]

I have boom racing d90 chopped. Nearly as good as rc4wd but not quite. However parts are a bit cheaper. I would say the brx 02 chassis is in a different league to rc4wd, no doubt they will catch up. Rc4wd d90 has a licensed hard body from land rover but boom racing doesn’t but it’s pretty close.

[@RCTNT]

Funny you say that. The very next video on this channel discusses this very thing! I have a bit to say on this subject but the video covers it well. I will say the RC4WD body is a total winner but the gear on the BRX platforms leaves RC4WD in the dust, especially where quality is concerned. Still, it's great to have the choice these days!

[@trevorcourt1403]

@@RCTNT I will try and find that video that will be interesting 👍🏻👌🏻

[@RCTNT]

It publishes in two and a half days from now. (I fixed a typo that said "best" instead of "next", sorry for the wild goose chase!) Cheers

@@RCTNT was gna say I just tried to find it but couldn’t....... nice one 👍🏻

[@RCTNT]

Heh yeah sorry about that! Wrote my first reply without glasses on and just didn't notice!

[@richysrc2158]

The quick release being tight is down to your wire placement, The extras for this will set you back a further $800 🤣 and your rear number plate is on the wrong side

[@RCTNT]

Thanks, good info there

[@jeffparryncc1701]

🥰

[@Mr450pro]

At that price, I think to many things is missing..

[@RCTNT]

The engineering is pretty good though. What extras should be there?

[@nickholmes6376]

Two many short falls for a kit costing £970.00 uk pounds, body interior not finished, no locking diffs or selectable 2-4 fwd, funny how the killerbody mercury chassis gets slated but no one slates overpriced non scale chassis, nice video not an attack on you or your content 👍

[@RCTNT]

You can add 2wd/4wd and/or overdrive at the same time on the transfer case. I did both on my BRX01 and it came out perfectly. I haven't had the mercury and probably won't. But the BRX02 and 01 are gorgeous scale models that I really enjoy. I paid full price for my BRX01 and all the accessories when I built it. Was totally worth it. I'm not a huge fan of the 6x6 implementation here, but the 4x4 variant is excellent. Cheers
