As a kid from the 70's, that had a Camel Trophy Range Rover poster on his bedroom wall in the 80's. These look fantastic, especially the Rover. That washout at 19:02 looks unbelievably fun to wheel. Great times with the kids too!
@johnnyhotshoe12924 ай бұрын
I really like the Range Rover and Discovery a lot. The defender 90 has that squashed stubby look like the fcx24 K5 blazer. I dont think it would be as noticeable if fms didn't completely nail the scale looks on the other 3! I plan to get one pre-ordered today, I have it narrowed down to 2. Great overall breakdown and comparison Adam!
@crappy6016 күн бұрын
After seeing these in action, I think 1/18 scale is more up my alley. I’m trying to expose my son to RCing and it seems like he would have more fun with a bigger scale that can overcome obstacles a little easier. I know part of the fun is the challenge but I don’t want him getting burned out. I really appreciate the in depth testing on this video. Super informative. I think if I were to get a FCX I think it would be the shorter wheel base with the 50mm tires sounds like a great platform to start from.

Back watching again 7:50 PM Saturday, July 20 got my defender 110 I love it. The detail is awesome. Just ordered the discovery today. That’s the one I was gonna order at first with the black hood. Wish I could’ve ordered them both at the same time just couldn’t but it’s on the way now.👍👍😎

This is an excellent review. You did a very thorough job. They look great and have a lot of great features. As you mentioned the scale appearance is outstanding. I think your copilot did a great job and demonstrated what r/c cars are for, having fun. I think I would buy one of then Defender versions for the larger tires.

@@CapeCrawlers You're welcome. After I watched your video I watched three others on the same crawlers. One out of three got better slightly crawling results. The only difference was he used a 900mah battery, which doesn't seem logical to me.

Very cool,I think the answer to these things is one set of body and tires(the stock for scale) and a lexan body and big wheels and tires for crawling comp style maybe? Anyway I’m gonna give that a try.thanks for all the info.I can’t decide between the Disco and Range Rover,I grew up seeing Disco’s probably go that way.

With the counter rotating shafts, we wont be able to swap axles with scx24 n old portal style fcx24 axles will we?? Would love to pick 1 of these up and get some aftermarket scx24 axles for it but not sure if that would work
@blaismerchant85823 ай бұрын
If there was a way to turn the dif spool the other way it could work but from what I've seen that's not possible the way fms made them. Take this with a grain of salt because I very well could be wrong 😂
@TYLERLOVESBMX13 ай бұрын
@blaismerchant8582 been trying to brainstorm, thinking mues straight axle in the front n whatever portal axle in the rear. That would also give it some rear underdrive that could help. Another option i think would just be swapping out the trans for the older style without counter-rotation then proceeding. I think that mix match axles could be cool n different. Regardless im excited to see how people build these up n how they compete.

When these first came out I was determined not to buy them or any more 1/24 scale trucks , well that didn't last long , I bought the range rover and did a few simple mods liked it that much I ordered the Diso , I did similar mods to that to , I will mess with them more down the road but they are both a lot better then I imagined they would be , I ordered the 1/24 Unimog on Saturday and it was delivered on Tuesday , I fitted overdrive and some weight to all four wheels I plan on weathering and adding some extra lights to all three , so I am going to be busy for a little while , I am not buying any more so stop tempting me lol , Stay safe mate ...

@@CapeCrawlers i couldn't wait! i already bought the range rover 😄 The next question is, what about upgrades? the TRX4M was my first RC i got about 4 months ago and its fully upgraded. I was spoiled everything was out on amazon i wanted. Are there parts i can get from the fcx24? (correct me if i am wrong on the car number) or will i need to wait for the specifics? i can do 1" tires and any springs i want, correct? Also, all the shops in Houston i called do not sell any of their products. will this be an amazon only issue? thanks!

Maybe it is just me but these trucks have a strong toy-like vibe to me. Somehow, the scale realism isn't as good as previous models. Perhaps it is the rather oversized wheels and tyres or maybe it is the chunky black plastic accessories?

They are great in some big ways, and crappy in some annoying ways. For me, the most annoying is that if i want to use that very cool 2 speed transmission on another rig (i would buy two right now) then i gotta use their axles. Or throw some X15 or Isokinetic or Super8 or a list of other great axles on it... thats a no go with that transmission. Lame. Their axles are not a great design. Sure, they work fine, but they basically tried to reinvent the wheel with those axles, and if you are going to do that then they better be great.. these are not. I'll wait to buy the body, and wait for someone else to design a nice 2 speed.
